A staggering majority of voters feel President Biden is too old to serve out a second term in office, according to a new poll — the latest data outlining growing concerns about the commander in chief’s advanced age.
A whopping 86% of US adults felt that the 81-year-old Biden is too old for another term in an ABC News/Ipsos poll released Sunday in the aftermath of a blistering special counsel report that noted apparent memory issues for the president.
Among those voters, 59% said that both Biden and his potential rival former President Donald Trump are too old, while only 27% felt Biden but not Trump is too old, per the poll.
Another 3% said only Trump, 77, is too old to serve as commander in chief again, bringing the total saying that about the 45th president to 62%.
When broken down along party lines, 73% of Democrats feel Biden is too old, while only 35% of Republicans said the same about Trump.
For independents, 91% felt that Biden is too old, while 71% believed the same thing about Trump.
When asked about whether Biden should’ve been charged over the classified document ordeal, 38% felt he should’ve, compared to 34% opposed, and 28% undecided, the poll showed.
Forty-one percent of respondents said neither when asked who would do better overseeing confidential documents, compared to 33% who said Biden and 23% Trump.
