Putting his nonsense in somebody else's mouth really highlights how profoundly stupid he sounds ALL THE TIME. It's gotta be chipping away at some of the die-hards.

11. So, when did Clownstick von Fuckface take this little test?

Was that the day back in November he went to Walter Reed Hospital for that perfectly routine, spur-of-the-moment unscheduled dash of an appointment?

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/19/health/trump-cognitive-screening-dementia.html

During President Trump’s medical exam this week, he was given a cognitive test and passed with a perfect score.

...

This screening test was designed about 20 years ago as a possible replacement for another test, the Mini-Mental State Examination, which had been widely used since the 1970s to look for outright dementia. The Moca is used in all 31 of the National Institute on Aging’s Alzheimer Disease Centers.

...

Moca has 30 questions meant to briefly assess memory, attention and concentration, control and self-regulation, and other mental skills.

To test memory, for example, the examiner reads five words at a rate of one per second and asks the subject to repeat them immediately and then again after some time has passed.

To assess attention and concentration, subjects are read a list of five digits and asked to repeat them in the order they were provided and then in reverse order. The subjects also are asked to count backward from 100 in increments of 7.

Other exercises include drawing a clock with the hands pointing to 11:10, and identifying a lion, rhino or camel. A perfect score is 30. A score from 26 to 30 is considered normal.

Of course, that could mean anything, but the secrecy that shrouded his sudden trip in November causes me to wonder.

He ACED his SAT’s too. The college entry teams said “The likes they have never seen”. They were amazed. Wharton paid him to teach while at the school to help lesser mortals.

bragging like a child over passing a cognitive ability test that measures things expected of a kindergardener.

O.M.G. What have we come to?

Agree that this was Sarah's best so far. The "example" test page from a coloring book and the "Doctor's" expression. Priceless.

when he was rushed to Walter Reed? He needed to have a quick cognitive test!

I sort of feel sorry for Sara Cooper. She must have to listen to Trump a hundred times to put a spot like that together. That would have drive her crazy.
Thanks for taking one for the team, Sara!
