Recent national polls indicate that President Joe Biden is trailing behind former President Donald Trump, with Biden's support significantly impacted by concerns over his mental capacity and stamina. A survey conducted between July 2-6, 2024, showed Biden trailing Trump by just one percentage point, a narrowing gap from previous weeks. Despite this, over 61% of respondents believe Biden lacks the mental capacity for another term, and 52% think he should step down as the Democratic nominee. Democratic leaders, including Rep. Elissa Slotkin and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, have expressed concerns about Biden's ability to win against Trump and his impact on other Democratic races. Meanwhile, Biden continues to garner support from key Democratic figures, including mayors and party members, as he addresses these concerns and emphasizes his administration's policies.
