Biden is too old but Trump is dangerous, swing-state poll shows

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

68% : Voters were more likely to describe Trump as being mentally fit or in good health.
60% : That shift comes after House Republicans tanked a bipartisan border bill with encouragement from Trump.
51% : Biden policiesOne potential advantage for Biden is how voters perceive some of the provisions of his signature Inflation Reduction Act, with a majority of respondents saying Medicare's ability to negotiate drug prices and the extension of insurance subsidies under Obamacare have helped them or their communities.
49% : Trump maintains his lead over Biden if other candidates - independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Jill Stein of the Green Party and independent Cornel West - are included.
44% : While the candidates are only four years apart in age, "it's clearly stickier for Biden than it is for Trump.
42% : Biden continues to trail Trump in all seven states most likely to decide the election, with swing-state voters' perceptions of an improving national economy failing to translate into a significant increase in support for the incumbent.
38% : Almost six in 10 swing-state voters labeled Trump as dangerous - a concern far more pronounced among undecided voters, who make up less than one-tenth of the swing-state electorate.
35% : Trump supporters, though, were more likely than other voters to be dismissive of the charges.
29% : Trump also fell short of Biden on other key attributes, with fewer voters calling the Republican compassionate or honest.
28% : Even 28% of those who plan to vote for him in November agree that Trump is dangerous.
26% : Criminal casesAs many as half of swing-state voters say they would be unwilling to vote for Trump if he's convicted in any one of the criminal cases in which he faces charges.
25% : Swing-state voters who volunteered that they had heard something about his recent comments degrading NATO were especially lopsided in thinking Trump was the more dangerous of the two candidates.
25% : Just as voters frequently cited Biden's age in an open-ended question about him, the same question about Trump yielded hundreds of mentions of his court cases.
24% : Still, Trump faces his own vulnerabilities with swing-state voters, with a majority saying the former president is dangerous.
18% : Still, Biden continues to receive little credit for those improving numbers, with voters trusting Trump more on a wide range of economic issues.
