Who’s in Charge? Most Americans Don’t Believe Biden Executes the Duties of His Office, Poll Finds

A highly respectable Trafalgar Group known for its accurate predictions, released a poll on Wednesday that found that almost 57 percent of American voters believe Joe Biden isn’t fully executing the duties of president — and it’s not just a GOP view. Nearly one in three Democrats think someone else is running the country.

The question that was asked of the likely general election voters was: “Do you believe President Biden is fully executing the duties of his office?”

To that, 56.5 percent of respondents said they believed “others” besides the president were directing the policy and agenda in the White House, 36.4 percent said that he was directing all policy and agenda, and 7.1 percent said they weren’t sure.

Among Democrats, 58.6 percent responded that they believe Biden is fully executing the duties of his office in comparison to the 83.6 percent of Republicans and 58.4 percent of Independents who said otherwise. Only 11 percent of Republicans and 31.7 percent of Independents said they believed Biden is the one in charge in the White House.

At the same time, 31.7 percent of the Democrat responded that some other people run the show, and almost 10 percent were “not sure.”

The poll’s findings are quite surprising in light of the fact Biden officially won more than 81 million votes in last November’s presidential election, surpassing the previous record high of 69.5 million set by Barack Obama. 

By age group, young people were by far the most skeptical of Biden’s grip on power. Just 21 percent of 18- to 24-year-olds believe he’s fully executing the duties of his office, the survey found. No other age segment came in below 36 percent.

In terms of race, Biden appeared to inspire the most confidence among black voters, with 69 percent saying he was performing fully as president. Asians, at 59 percent, were also relatively confident he was making the major decisions, but Hispanic and white participants came in at 35 percent and 30 percent, respectively.

The common definition of a belief shared by an individual or a group of people that some unknown and unaccountable actors rule the country behind the curtains is a conspiracy theory. The poll found that more than half of the country may be considered conspiracy theorists, but with a twist. The belief seems to be formed and propagated not by some malicious GOP group that seeks to smear Biden but developed thanks to Biden’s own evident mental decline.

“You don’t need to be a physician to look at this behavior and see there’s something concerning happening,” former Obama and Trump White House doctor Ronny Jackson, who is now a Republican congressman out of Texas, said. “You can go back — there’s forty years of tape of this man – he’s always made gaffes and stuff, but these are different, he’s confused, he’s disoriented.”

According to a Rasmussen poll released in June 2020, nearly 40 percent of voters thought then-presumptive Democratic nominee Biden had dementia, including 30 percent of independents likely to vote. One in five Democrats believed it as well.

Along with more than a dozen Republican House members, Dr. Jackson formally asked President Biden on June 17 of this year to undergo a cognitive test and release the results “so the American people know the full mental and intellectual health of their President,” to which the White House didn’t answer, according to Jackson.

“This is not a laughing matter anymore,” Jackson said on Tuesday in a Fox News interview. He added, “The White House has been transformed from a symbol of power and authority to what looks like, at this particular point, an assisted-living facility.”

Undoubtedly, the results of the poll signal trouble for the whole Democratic Party. Its establishment, along with the lap media, worked around the clock to get a fading man into the highest office on Earth. And now that they’ve succeeded, just half a year later, their efforts need to be tripled since Biden is quickly regressing in front of the nation and the whole world.

Brandon Mores at RedState argues: “It’s going to be hard to get away from the fact that Democrats pushed a man who was incapable of standing on his own two feet and had to be controlled by people in the background.” Mores believes that it will be an increasingly difficult task to pretend that Biden has full control of his faculties, putting Americans in a position of wanting to know who their leader actually is. Since the answer will likely not be given, many Democrat voters will develop a distrust of their party, which will backfire during the 2022 midterms. And forget about flipping any seats.

It is seen from the poll that the Democrats are already divided in their views of the president they supposedly overwhelmingly voted for. Even the House Democrats don’t fully trust Biden with major decisions and sought to strip him of a unilateral ability to launch nuclear weapons.

A year ago, President Trump warned that Biden will serve as a “Trojan horse” for the far-left wing of his party, and he won’t be running the nation. “[Biden is] a Trojan horse. He has no clue, but the people around him are tough, and they’re smart,” Trump said back then.  He added during a separate event: “Joe Biden is the puppet of left-wing extremists trying to erase our borders, eliminate our police, indoctrinate our children, vilify our heroes, take away our energy.”

Another coin goes to the “Trump was right” jar.
