The current president has made his mental stability a cornerstone of his campaign
Likely voters believe that Democratic nominee Joe Biden is more mentally sound that President Donald Trump, according to a recently-released Fox News poll.
The survey of likely 1,191 likely voters found that 51% believe that Biden "has the mental soundness to serve as president."
Only 47% of likely voters told Fox News that President Trump has the "mental soundness" to be commander-in-chief.
The current president has made his mental stability a cornerstone of his campaign.
The same voters preferred the compassion of Biden over Trump, 62% to 44%, the poll found.

(65,321 posts)...it's it's 2 separate questions, and some people thought both were compassionate.
That caught my eye too, and figured it couldn't have been a binary question.
Even more surprising is that 49% think Joe isn't up to the task, mentally.
Compared to what?
How many Einsteins have we had as POTUS?
We've had some really smart ones, but super geniuses? Not so much.
This is especially true given that 3 of the last 6 presidents have been dumber than a box of rocks.
I recent memory, we've had 2 very smart presidents, and one of average intelligence.
Gotta be cultists!

Then they they asked if Trump has the compassion to serve effectively as president, and 44% said "yes".
