Trump passed a "surprise" cognitive test.

Last edited Thu Jan 18, 2018, 01:23 AM - Edit history (1)

That was how it was described in today's newspaper, but The only surprise was that he did "exceedingly well" as the article claimed.

I have a feeling I know the questions used to determine his stable geniousocityness.

Correct answers are worth 5 points each:

1. What is your name?
2. Who is president of the US?
3. Who is the least racist person ever interviewed?
4. What president had the biggest crowd at an inauguration?
5. Name three out of four of the presidents children.
6. How much money is it worth to you if I lie to the public about your health?

Trump scored a perfect 30 of a possible 30 points.

Edited to add actual clipping.

You can look at the actual test online. It determines such crucial differences as if you can distinguish a drawing of a camel from one of a rhinoceros or lion. I think it might be useful to determine if someone is in late-stage Alzheimer's, but that's about it.

You may want to correct the one about the Trump children. Just like the president, I forgot Tiffany.

for remembering he had 5 children, not 4? And remembering all of their actual names - including Whatshername?
