Poll Finds Most Voters Believe Biden Not All There, Aides Doing His Job for Him
“Preelection concerns that President Joe Biden wasn’t physically or mentally up for his new job at age 78, the oldest-ever chief executive, are now settling in”
A new poll from Rasmussen finds that most voters believe Joe Biden has basically checked out and that his job is being done by his aides.
Of course, lots of people have believed this for months. If you simply watch Biden try to speak without a script, it’s nearly impossible not to reach this conclusion.
Paul Bedard writes at the Washington Examiner:
Majority says Biden is out of it, aides are doing his job
Preelection concerns that President Joe Biden wasn’t physically or mentally up for his new job at age 78, the oldest-ever chief executive, are now settling in as the public sees him slow-walking, refusing to consider questions at press conferences, and seemingly befuddled with the crisis in Afghanistan.
Not only has his average approval rating fallen below 50%, the lowest of his presidency, but a new survey has found that in addition to likely voters believing that Biden is not all there, they believe that aides are doing his job.
In the survey, Rasmussen Reports said 52% of respondents said they are not confident that Biden is physically or mentally “up to the job of being president of the United States.” And 41% of respondents said they are “not confident at all.”
Another 46% said they are confident in Biden…
The survey outlet also asked, “Is Joe Biden really doing the job of president, or are others making the decisions for him behind the scenes?”
Again, a slight majority, 51%, said others are doing his work, while 39% said Biden is in charge, down from 47% in March.
There’s more, and it only gets worse for Biden.
Samuel Chamberlain writes at the New York Post:
Most voters deem Biden unfit to be president, poll shows
In addition, 52 percent of respondents said they were “not confident” that Biden was physically and mentally up to the job of being commander-in-chief, compared to 46 percent who said they were.
The phone and online survey of 1,000 likely voters was taken Wednesday and Thursday of this week, after Biden had attempted to defend his decision to pull US combat forces out Afghanistan in an address from the East Room of the White House.

Biden’s presidency is unraveling right before our eyes after only seven months.
The man is simply not up to the job.

Who are the 46% that think he is capable of handling this job?
I would bet those wearing a mask while alone in their car or walking outside constitute the bulk of these blindered respondents.
The real issue is that the Democrats knew about Bidens’ mental decline and still chose him to run for President!
He was installed via fraud.
The handlers needed somebody with a recognizable face, but utterly corrupt, devoid of decency or morals, and with enough baggage to keep in a short leash.
Ladies and gentlemen: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
He is almost not recognizable anymore. Time to go.
This needs to be said over and over until people realize what it means.

n. A person who is considered foolish or stupid.
n. A person of moderate to severe mental retardation having a mental age of from three to seven years and generally being capable of some degree of communication and performance of simple tasks under supervision. The term belongs to a classification system no longer in use and is now considered offensive.
The Puppeteers are not aides, that might be a better thought than who is I’m afraid.
I don’t know who the puppeteers are but they’re working behind the scenes where they can’t be seen. The aides are the “lovely assistants” who come out act as props and pull the cover away to impress the audience so they go “Wow!”
My goodness! This is not news! We’ve all known this from day one. A virtual swearing in ceremony. Postponed state of union because he needs months to prepare. Falls down the stairs. Gets lost. Don’t remember people’s names. Can’t answer questions from reporters, in fact won’t even take any real questions because he can’t answer them. Has Kamala talk to world leaders of on the phone because he can’t. On an on. The whole world knows this and has known for a very long time.
Falls UP the stairs!
George Stephanopolis said it was a gust of wind. ha ha.
The irony is all those same charges could be levelled at Trump.
Remember the time he forgot he was President during covid, or couldn’t speak properly so basically had garbled nonsensical speech. Or how about the confused ramblings when he gets interviewed. So sure accuse Biden of mental decline but your gonna have to own that with Trump too.
I cared for several older relatives who had dementia, so Joe Biden’s symptoms were very apparent to me. Dementia victims still have many good long-term memories, but after the early stages of dementia, they really aren’t alive anymore. Without short term memories, the ability to maintain a train of thought, the lack of logic, and depending on others to think for them, their minds are dying. Their personalities revert to child-like emotions and thoughts. It’s tragic for them, but even more tragic for you to see them devolve like that. Joe Biden isn’t really alive, .. just the shell of the person he was.
As you have probably seen, the dementia unmasks their true temerment. In discussing the effects of major brain irradiation for cancer, I asked the oncologist now is it exoressed. If you are a happy drunk you will be a milder demented …if a mean drunk…a mean demented. Biden, to me, is a mean, lying, uncouth , ruthless perv and just what the Dems wanted for Obama 2.0. His handlers are the puppet’s strings. The puppeteers need to be exposed and dealt with. As for Biden…His loathsome behavior will be more front and center. No a!out of lies will cover this. The sheer number of people who will suffer will place him far above Cuomo. Fundamentally deform America.
He wasn’t much to begin with.
I just went through this with my father, it was heartbreaking, from 2 PhD to a child.
In Biden’s case, he always was stupid. Bottom of his class in college. A total moron in his best days. Now he is nothing more than a sock puppet for a nameless faceless Deep State committee. They juice him with drugs so he can read a teleprompter and then go back to bed. And the one thing we know about committees is they never make hard decisions.
Again proving if you have no Political IQ you should be rushing to vote. This jokers cognitive ability has been in the toilet for more than the last 12 years
Even before Biden was officially senile, it was hard to tell. He’s been an incoherent fool for decades.
Most work is done by aides. What’s different is that the left wants Biden out so the press is beating the drums for that.
A really smart president knows which expert advice to ignore, but that’s rare.
I want him out too. KamalaSutra may be evil and venal, but at least she is sentient.
Biden would be good in Peter Sellers’s role in any of his movies.
Yeah, as Chauncey Gardener in “Being There”
“Growth will come in the Spring”
What? Biden will start pushing up daisies?
…’s unelected and unaccountable handlers.
Nearly half of the people responding to this poll are comfortable being ruled by someone behind the curtain. They probably think mean Miss Gulch should have been allowed to send Toto to the dog pound.
The interesting thing is whether people will ever realize they’ve been gaslighted.

Was it Biden who wanted the 9-11 Afghanistan photo op, or those around him? It would be like an episode of The West Wing, reality for these actors.
Dems are all about optics and signaling. Biden wanted to score political and virtue points. He wanted to make a big announcement on 9/11 about the USA “Mission Accomplished”
No real leader let’s politics drive military decisions.
>> Thought that lesson was learned the hard way in Vietnam.
Every person who was involved in this pull-out plan MUST GO. If they do not do the honorable thing and RESIGN NOW – they must be removed – fired and./or COURT-MARTIALED.
2,600 Lives Lost, 20,000 injured and $2 Trillion Lost – squandered by a pull out that even my grandmother with no military training could have done better.
The photo-op Biden may get could be determined by the Taliban, Al Qaeda or ISIS.
Additional polling showed that most voters believe Biden’s

“Aides Doing His Job for Him”
I would have worded the headline differently. Something more like, “Aides Not-Doing His Job for Him.”
“52% of respondents said they are not confident… 41% of respondents said they are “not confident at all…” Another 46% said they are confident in Biden”
This must have been one of those Democrat polls of all 57 states.
I just went through this with my father, it was heartbreaking, from 2 PhD to a child.
Sorry to hear that Justice.
Joe Biden showing up at a debate will change this for him just like it did in 2020, a better line of attack both regarding Afghanistan and everything else is what is wrong with what he is doing.
We will someday find out how his handlers did the “debate prep” to disguise his dementia. Drugs clearly, shifting circadian rhythm possibly, massive fraud certainly. I grieve for my country.
