The president is really proud of passing a “dementia screening tool.”
Users on X have slapped community notes on viral clips of the 79-year-old president bizarrely raving about his performance on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, which he continues to“I’m the only president that ever took a cognitive test,” Trump told his Cabinet during a meeting in which he at times struggled to keep his eyes open on Thursday.
“I took it three times. It’s actually a very hard test for a lot of people. It wasn’t hard for me.” President Donald Trump, 79, struggled to keep his eyes open during a Cabinet meeting Thursday—an increasingly common occurrence.His ramble continued, unchecked by his table of sycophants, “It’s a cognitive test. It starts off with an easy question. And by the time you get to the middle, it gets tougher. By the time you get to the end, very few people can answer those questions. They get very tough mathematical equations and things. I took it three times. I aced it all three times in front of numerous doctors that I have no idea who they are.” Trump went on to claim that a doctor told him he is the first person to complete the assessment without missing a single question in his 20 years of administering it.University of Missouri Trump has previously claimed to have aced the test, including back in 2020 during an interview with Fox News. “It’s actually not that easy, but for me, it was easy. And that’s not an easy question. In other words, they ask it to you, they give you five names and you have to repeat ’em. And that’s OK.

Woman. Man. Camera. TV.’”“The MoCA test Trump refers to is a 10-minute screening tool for mild cognitive impairment that people with normal cognition easily pass,” a community note read. “It includes basic tasks like serial subtraction , not complex mathematical equations.” A community note quickly undercut President Donald Trump’s claims about a “cognitive test” on Thursday., Trump was also dealt a dose of reality by Grok—Elon Musk’s AI chatbot that users often use as a real-time fact checker on X. “The Montreal Cognitive Assessment is a quick 10-15 min clinical screening tool for mild cognitive impairment in older adults,” Grok wrote. “It begins with easy tasks then adds attention/memory items like serial 7s subtraction from 100—not complex equations.” It continued, “Trump first took it in 2018 during his annual physical amid public questions about his mental fitness . He’s repeated it voluntarily during later exams to demonstrate and emphasize passing each time.”GIF by The Daily Beast/The White Houseduring the George W. Bush administration, said he is shocked Trump’s advisers are not imploring him to stop bragging about such an easy assessment, which can be as simple as drawing hands on a clock and identifying animals. “If I were one of the president’s advisers, I would beg him to stop bragging about doing well on a dementia screening tool which requires the patient to identify a camel and subtract 7 from 100,” heThe Daily Beast had led the way in covering both Trump’s slipping cognitive and physical state during his second term, including his perennial
