Donald Trump's Health Is of Increasing Concern to Voters
Fewer voters believe Donald Trump is in good health, and more think the 78-year-old Republican is too old to run for office now that President Joe Biden is no longer in the 2024 race, according to a new poll.
Since Biden dropped out of the race, more than half (51 percent) now say that Trump is too old—up from 44 percent—and the number of people believing the former president is mentally fit has fallen 5 points from 53 percent to 48.
The poll results are the latest sign that Trump will now face the same scrutiny about his age and cognitive ability that plagued Biden before he pulled out of the race. Trump, 78, is now the oldest presidential nominee in U.S. history and could overtake Biden as the oldest-ever sitting U.S. president during his second term if he wins November's election.
