Donald Trump bragged he 'aced' a cognitive test, challenged Joe Biden to take that same test, and forgot the name of Dr. Ronny Jackson who tested him.
Donald Trump gives the keynote address at Turning Point Action's"The People's Convention" on June 15, 2024 in Detroit, Michigan. On Saturday, at a speech in Detroit, Trump said that Biden “should have to take a cognitive test.” Mere seconds later, he misidentified the doctor who tested his cognition, referring to Republican Rep.
Trump forgets Ronny Jackson's name while attacking Biden for purported cognitive decline: "Doc Ronny Johnson. Does everyone know Ronny Johnson?"“ doesn’t even know what the word ‘inflation’ means. I think he should take a cognitive test like I did,” Trump said. Shortly after, Trump added, “Doc Ronny Johnson. Does everyone know Ronny Johnson, congressman from Texas? He was the White House doctor, and he said I was the healthiest president, he feels, in history, so I liked him very much indeed immediately.”
Jackson administered the Montreal Cognitive Assessment to Trump at the president’s request while he was in office. The test, designed to detect memory decline, includes simple tasks such as identifying drawings of animals, remembering terms and random numbers, naming words that begin with a certain letter, and performing abstractions, such as classifying apples and oranges as fruits.
Trump is trying to make Biden’s age a factor in the race, although Trump himself is only three years younger. Meanwhile, Trump’s gaffes and flubs continue.
