Polls suggest the American people aren’t just increasingly unhappy with President Donald Trump’s job performance; they’re increasingly concerned about his mental capacity as well.

Perhaps the most striking poll came Tuesday, ahead of Trump’s first State of the Union address of his second term, which beat his own record for the longest speech to Congress.

The Reuters-Ipsos poll showed 61% of Americans agreed that Trump has “become erratic with age.” Even 30% of Republicans agreed with that sentiment.

The Reuters-Ipsos poll also showed a decrease in the percentage of Americans who say Trump is “mentally sharp and able to deal with challenges.” That number has dropped from 54% in September 2023 to 45% today.

    I like your optimism. But I think this can go on for a looong time. I’m actually betting on it, because I tend to lose bets. A rare occasion where winning and losing both counts as a win.
