Democrats are more skeptical about Biden than Republicans are of Trump: Poll

Democ­rats are more skep­ti­cal about Pres­i­dent Joe Biden than Repub­li­cans are about for­mer Pres­i­dent Don­ald Trump, accord­ing to a new poll.
An NBC News poll found sig­nif­i­cant con­cerns among Democ­rats about Biden, with only 54% say­ing that “none” of the president’s vul­ner­a­bil­i­ties were most con­vinc­ing, com­pared to 72% of Repub­li­cans feel­ing the same about Trump. Addi­tion­al­ly, 42% of Democ­rats said there was a con­vinc­ing rea­son to vote against Biden, com­pared to just 25% of Repub­li­cans with Trump.

Repub­li­cans were less like­ly to say a list of Don­ald Trump’s short­com­ings was of great con­cern com­pared to Democ­rats who were asked the same about Joe Biden. (AP Pho­tos)

Per­haps even more con­cern­ing for the pres­i­dent is the per­cep­tion among all reg­is­tered vot­ers, who ranked Biden’s vul­ner­a­bil­i­ties high­er than Trump’s. When asked the most com­pelling rea­son to oppose Biden, 23% of vot­ers said it was the idea that he “may not have the nec­es­sary men­tal and phys­i­cal health to be pres­i­dent for a sec­ond term.”
