- Reuters-Ipsos shows the percentage saying Trump is mentally sharp fell from 54% in September 2023 to 45% today, with confidence in his mental fitness dropping from 39% to 32%.

- Among the president's base, about 3 in 10 express concern about his fitness, including 30% of Republicans, while Pew Research Center and CNN last month echo this trend.
