A recent poll conducted by YouGov/the Times revealed that 54% of registered voters believe there has been a cover-up surrounding President Joe Biden’s health. This belief is not without merit, as Vice President Kamala Harris, the establishment media, and White House staff have all been implicated in various degrees of involvement in this alleged cover-up.
The poll asked respondents to answer whether they think there has been a cover-up of Joe Biden’s health. Of the 54% who answered affirmatively, an astonishing 92% claimed that Vice President Kamala Harris was at least somewhat involved in the cover-up. The same question was posed about the establishment media and White House staff, with 88% and 95% of respondents claiming their involvement, respectively.
The breakdown of these responses is as follows.
1. Kamala Harris: A great deal – 68%, Somewhat – 17%, A little – 7%, Not at all – 4%, Not sure – 4.
2. The Media: A great deal – 59%, Somewhat – 20%, A little – 9%, Not at all – 8%, Not sure – 4.
3. White House Staff: A great deal – 77%, Somewhat – 14%, A little – 4%, Not at all – 1%, Not sure – 3.
The YouGov/the Times poll sampled 1,170 registered voters between July 22-23 and has a margin of error of 3.2 points. This poll comes amidst growing concerns about President Biden’s health, with Vice President Kamala Harris expressing her readiness to “take over” from him if necessary.
Senator JD Vance (R-OH) recently accused Kamala Harris and the media of lying about President Biden’s condition, stating that “Every single person who saw Joe Biden knew that he wasn’t capable of doing the job.” Only 39% of registered independents believe Harris is qualified to be president, according to an Economist/YouGov poll.
With such a high percentage of respondents believing in a cover-up of President Biden’s health and involving key figures like Vice President Kamala Harris, this issue is likely to continue generating attention and debate in the political sphere.
