President Trump has claimed Kim Jong-Un and Vladimir Putin are Mentally Fit than Joe Biden
US President Donald Trump has claimed Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un are more mentally fit than the Democratic nominee. A new poll by Fox News that was published on Sunday showed that 51% of Americans think Joe Biden has the mental soundness to serve effectively as president. It clearly indicates only half of Americans think that presidential candidates Joe Biden and Donald Trump have the mental soundness for the job. The poll found that only 47% felt that Trump had the mental soundness for the job, while 2% were unsure. Of those asked by Fox News, 45% said that Biden did not have the mental soundness to be president.
It is noteworthy that the poll came a few days after a survey by CNBC-Change Research was released, which asked likely voters in Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin if they thought the candidates were mentally fit enough for the job. The survey showed that 51% of voters in the states felt that Trump is unfit for the job, while 52% said the same about Biden. When it came to physical fitness, 52% of those asked in the Fox News poll responded that they thought Trump was physically fit enough to be president, while 54% said the same about the Democratic nominee. The mental and physical fitness of both candidates has been a talking point of the 2020 campaign, with the 74-year-old president repeatedly criticizing the 77-year-old former vice president’s cognitive ability.
Point to be noted that President Trump often refers to the Democratic nominee as Sleepy Joe, and earlier this month claimed that a 97-year-old veteran in a crowd at a rally in Wilmington, North Carolina, is mentally sharper than Biden. On Monday, Trump compared Biden’s mental fitness to both North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong-un and Russian President Vladimir Putin, following the release of the Fox News poll. After the president made the remarks, journalist Davis tweeted and said, “Trump claims that Putin and Kim Jong-un are more mentally fit than Biden”. Trump said, “I deal with all these people and they don’t have the kind of mental problem that sleepy Joe has. They are very sharp. Kim Jong-un doesn’t know about the problems that Joe has, we need very sharp people. I’m sorry, Joe is not qualified for this position”.
