***Quinnipiac***- Majority of Americans say Trump unfit to be president *






"There is no upside. With an approval rating frozen in the mid-thirties, his character and judgement questioned, President Donald Trump must confront the harsh fact that the majority of American voters feel he is simply unfit to serve in the highest office in the land," said Tim Malloy.

There are deep party, gender and racial divisions on whether President Trump is fit to serve, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll finds:
Trump is not fit, Democrats say 94 - 5 percent and independent voters say 57 - 40 percent. Republicans say 84 - 14 percent that he is fit.
Men are divided 49 - 49 percent, as women say 63 - 35 percent he is not fit.
White voters are divided as 50 percent say he is fit and 48 percent say he is not fit. Trump is not fit, black voters say 94 - 4 percent and Hispanic voters say 60 - 40 percent.

I mean is this a normal question they asked of other presidents?

Because if this polling question is tailor made just for Trump, that alone speaks volumes.

That they even have to ask, hmmmm

A web search turns up the survey of psychiatrists in the 1960s on whether Goldwater was fit to serve; and polls about presidents of other countries. But no, not for another American president.
