Polls reveal mistrust in Harris over Biden's health concealment
Kamala Harris could become the first female president in the history of the United States, but Donald Trump will do everything to prevent it. He accuses the Vice President, among other things, of hiding the actual health condition of Biden. It turns out that a significant portion of voters share this narrative. Surprising poll results indicate this.
What did Vice President Kamala Harris know about President Biden's health problems and when did she find out about them? And why didn't she share this information with Americans?
According to the "New York Post," it turns out that almost everyone is asking this last question. This is according to a YouGov poll for the "Times of London," conducted among 1,170 registered voters.
The poll was conducted on July 22–23, after President Biden decided not to run in the election, but before his historic speech from the Oval Office.
It turns out that up to 92 percent of respondents believe that Harris at least to some extent knew about the progressing deterioration of the president's health. Among this vast majority accusing Harris of being part of a conspiracy to deceive the American public, most believe she knew "a great deal" about Biden's problems but chose to remain silent—notes the "NYP."
Poll results: do voters not trust Harris?
As we read, 68 percent of respondents stated that Harris had extensive knowledge about Biden's worsening health, with 78 percent of Republicans, 72 percent of independent voters, and up to 82 percent of voters identifying as conservatives thinking so. They claim that Kamala played a key role in this case.
Moreover, 17 percent of respondents believe that the Vice President was "somewhat" involved in the process of hiding information, and only 7 percent pointed to the answer - "a little."
Democrats have a slightly higher trust in Harris, but—interestingly—there is no shortage of people here with the view of "information concealment." According to the "NYP," as much as 58 percent of Democrats and 64 percent of liberals attribute "substantial blame" to Harris, and an additional 20 percent of Democrats and 21 percent of liberals believe she knew at least "a little" about Biden's health problems.
Interestingly, only 12 percent of Democrats and 7 percent of liberals believe that Harris "knew nothing" about the president's health condition.
Biden has often been subject to criticism due to his age. The pre-election Biden-Trump debate opened Pandora's box, ending in the Democratic candidate's defeat. After the fact, Biden admitted that he "almost fell asleep on stage."
