Americans Describe Trump As "Incompetent", "Racist", "Antichrist"

The latest NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll found Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden with a double-digit lead over President Donald Trump among likely voters, with Biden leading 54 percent to 43 percent.
But perhaps more interesting are the answers to an open-ended question, in which respondents were asked to describe each presidential candidate in one word.
- According to NPR, the most-used word American chose in describing Trump was “incompetent,” followed by "liar," "failure," "bad," "horrible," "disaster," "arrogant" and "buffoon."
- Also making the negative list were “buffoon,” “arrogant,” “racist,” “ass,” and “Putinesque.”
- The most-used positive descriptors were “good,” “great,” “strong,” and “successful” — though none of these overtook “incompetent.”
- The most-used word Americans used to describe Biden was “honest,” followed by "confident," "hopeful," "good," "trustworthy" and "compassionate."
- On the negative side, voters described the Democrat as "old," "confused," "incompetent," "senile" and "weak."
