BREAKING: Trump brags about “acing” his third cognitive test while calling a reporter “Maggot”
Trump wants everyone to know he passed a test designed to screen for dementia. Again.
In a new statement, Trump announced he “just finished a perfect physical at Walter Reed” and bragged that he requested another cognitive test, calling himself “the only President to do so” and claiming he aced all three: “Got every question right.”
Then he turned the announcement into an attack on the press, insulting New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman as “Maggot” and dismissing journalist Jonathan Swan as her “flunky associate,” betting that neither “could get 50% of the questions right.”
Here’s the thing about cognitive tests: they aren’t IQ exams. They’re basic screenings that ask patients to identify animals and repeat words back. Passing one isn’t an achievement. Needing to announce it three times, while name-calling reporters in the same breath, says far more than any score ever could.
Confident, healthy leaders don’t brag about dementia screenings. They just govern.
