Kamala Harris has outperformed both President Joe Biden and Donald Trump in a YouGov poll that evaluated personal traits.
What Happened: The poll revealed that 50% of the respondents believe Harris would triumph over Trump in a cooking competition, with Trump only garnering 10% support. Similarly, half of the participants think Harris could out-dance Trump, with only 14% backing the former president.
Moreover, Harris was considered a more reliable babysitter, was praised for her fashion sense, and was believed to be more likely to assist a stranger or remember birthdays. She also outshone in the area of parenting advice.
However, Trump managed to outperform Harris in four out of the 20 questions. Participants felt he was more likely to win an arm-wrestling match or a game of poker, and gave him higher marks for financial advice and celebrity voice imitation.
