Poll: Majority of Americans Doubt Biden’s Ability for Second Term.

Majority of Americans Doubt Biden’s Ability to Complete Second Term

A recent Harvard Caps/Harris poll reveals that a majority of Americans believe President Joe Biden would not make it to the end of a second term.

The poll, which surveyed over 2,000 registered voters, found that 61% of Americans believe Vice President Kamala Harris would take over for the 80-year-old Biden at some point in a second term. Respondents were also highly skeptical of Biden’s health, with 57% expressing doubts about his mental fitness and 67% saying he’s shown he’s too old to be president.

• 82% of Republicans said Biden wouldn’t make it to the end of a second term, compared to 35% of Democrats.

These findings come as Americans increasingly report being concerned about Biden’s health. The president has the lowest support from within his own party for a reelection bid of any president in recent history, as reported by the Washington Post last month. Democrats have expressed doubts about his ability to handle a second term due to his frequent gaffes and physical stumbles.

Biden received increased scrutiny over his age last month when it was revealed that during his first run for Senate in 1972, he criticized his 63-year-old opponent for being too old.

What Does This Mean for Biden’s Presidency?

These poll results suggest that many Americans are skeptical about Biden’s ability to complete a second term, and that his own party may not fully support his reelection bid. As the president continues to face scrutiny over his health and age, it remains to be seen how this will impact his presidency and his ability to enact his agenda.
