Trump reveals results from alleged cognitive test 04:12

Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump claimed on Thursday that he recently "aced" a cognitive test, his latest attempt to dismiss questions about his mental capabilities and attempt to call into question those of presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.

Trump said he took the test at Walter Reed Medical Center but did not provide additional information about the test. He took a cognitive test there in 2018 after requesting one, his physician at the time told reporters, adding that he did not believe such tests were standard for presidents to take. It is not clear whether Trump was referring to this test or a more recent one.

"I proved I was all there because I aced it. I aced the test," Trump told Fox News' Sean Hannity, saying he took the cognitive test "very recently."

The President described it as a "very standard test" he took at Walter Reed in front of doctors, who he claimed were "very surprised" by his "unbelievable" results....................................

1. Like he aced his SATs?

[George II]

3. That's what I was thinking, wondering who he paid to take the test.

[LakeArenal]

2. Sure Donwad. We'll see in your first and only debate.

Where you will be shown to be a bumbling illiterate. Plus, diminished faculties.

Or as you would say, demonish fucktalies.

[Mike 03]

4. Biden should take this test live on Youtube, so people can see how

simple this test is. It would make a great ad, in fact.

You draw the face of a clock to a particular time, like "quarter to eleven."
You have to be able to differentiate between animal shapes, like tell the difference between a giraffe and a rhinoceros.
You have to recall and repeat a few words or numbers: "Refrigerator. Bed. Radio. Swimming pool."

Biden would laugh his way through it in a minute or two, and the entire world could see what Trump is bragging about 'acing.'

[Major Nikon]

5. It was a test to determine if he has early symptoms of Alzheimer's

Only a fucking moron would think that makes him a genius.

[Botany]

7. I think it was a test to see if he had a stroke

Why would he have gone to Walter Reed on a Saturday or a Sunday afternoon?

[bucolic_frolic]

6. Total denial

Unaware. When they tell you it's fine and you don't know enough to realize why they're giving you the test .... next step is day care for "a day at work" because the others "need your help".

Shhhhhh! Don't tell anybody. Mum's the word!

8. When Trump insulted Rex Tillerson's intelligence, MENSA offered to monitor an IQ test for Donald.

When Trump insulted Rex Tillerson's intelligence, MENSA offered to monitor an IQ test for Donald.

He was smart enough to not take them up on the offer.

9. After my brain injury

I took a series of cognitive tests in rehab. Since he has no listening skills, bet he had trouble with the number retention/repeat.

10. Walter Reed has MRI & PET equipment, the WH does not yet have that

Portable MRI machines are in a trailer the size of a city bus, one of those pulling up behind the WH, well photos of that would be around the globe in a half hour.

Trump went in field over T-Day, and he publicly commented about only eating mashed potatoes

snip--"...Trump said while speaking to the troops in Afghanistan, according to Politico. “And I had some mashed potatoes and I had a bite of mashed potatoes, and I never got to the turkey, because Gen. [Mark] Milley said come on over, sir, let’s take some pictures. I never got to my turkey. It’s the first time at Thanksgiving that I’ve never had anything called turkey.“

enough clues to make me think hard that he suffered a significant neurological change that Saturday afternoon, that the in WH doctor was concerned enough to ship Trump to Walter Reed, get the unavailable in WH, but needed advanced imaging studies done.

Post stroke, among other conditions, the patient will be on a soft foods diet until cleared by a Speech Pathologist.

I think he had a minor stroke in November. With his direct family history of Alzheimer's and his obvious cognitive deficits, he blurted out that Med Staff is checking on him.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

11. He also scored 100 on his urine test.

[dalton99a]

15. It was wet.

[sarge43]

19. Well yes, he stayed up all night studying for it. n/t

[SWBTATTReg]

12. Sure. And we're all of a sudden supposed to believe you now? By the way, it's...

obvious you're still lying, since you're f**king messing up right and left even today.

Loser.

[Scalded Nun]

13. Did someone there give him the Buzzfeed URL? They have the 'best' tests.

[sarisataka]

14. The test was actually given on the way to WRMC

[Thekaspervote]

16. A cognitive test can be as simple as stating name, day, date and time.

Of course that’s probably a “tuff” test for dotard!!

[Marthe48]

17. no pee running down his leg

maybe that's his proof :/

[jcgoldie]

18. The prof is under audit

Will be released soon I'm sure...

[Harker]

20. "How many fingers am I holding up?"

He only gets one from me unless I'm using both hands.

[seabiscuit5920]

21. Passed his test like his SAT's

He must have paid someone to take this test for him.

[Paladin]

22. Prove it, fuckface. (nt)

[PSPS]

23. Geesh! Don't people know what a "cognitive test" is?

It's a standard test for older people and those who may have induced impairment, like a stroke.

You are told a few words (usually 3 - 5) and asked to remember them.
You draw a clock face and show where the hands go for a specific time, like 9:30
You can accurately answer a few simple questions like "Who is the president?" "What day of the week is it?"
You are asked what the few words were that you were told at the beginning.

If you can do that, YOU ACED IT!!!1111!!1

If he started bragging about it around the doctors, that alone would warrant a notation on his chart.

[jeffreyi]

27. +++1000

I was there when my mother was subjected to this, no she didn't pass but heck she was in her 90's.

[onetexan]

24. They're talking about this now on Nicole Wallace's Deadline:WH

It's a mental status exam administered to people with cognitive deficiency, and the doctors are saying they're surprised if his results were really normal

[left-of-center2012]

25. in front of doctors, who he claimed were "very surprised" by his "unbelievable" results.

[NBachers]

26. "And then they all jumped up and clapped for me!"

[riversedge]

28. good one!!

[RiF]

29. I want to see his Cognitive Certificate

Just sayin'

[Kid Berwyn]

30. "I aced the test."
