Trump Challenges Biden to Cognitive Test, Then has Immediate Mental Lapse Showing Loss of Cognition.

Trump couldn't even remember the name of the physician who gave him a previous test for dementia, during a speech in Detroit.

"I think he should take a cognitive test like I did. 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."

His White House Physician was Ronny Jackson.

I'd like to point out that there's a big difference between slightly mispronouncing the last name of someone and the major lapses of memory and utter confusion that the current President has displayed .Still,if Bidens handlers insist that he is mentally sharp,Im sure he'll have no problem taking the cognitive test ,just as Trump did.

@DavidT8899 If that was the only Trump lapse, that would be one thing. But he continues to show evidence of cognitive decline, including last week when CEOs at a campaign event remarked that Trump can't focus on one thought and meanders all over the place, making nonsensical statements. An objective viewer of both would conclude that Trump shows more evidence of cognitive decline.

@DavidT8899 DJT showed an inability to pay attention to details, an unwillingness to read, and an inability to stop lying in 2017-2021 (cf. testimony before the Jan 6 cmte, where persons in the WH heard him acknowledge he'd lost the election).

@SomeMichGuy Well,he still managed to do so well on a cognitive test,didn't he?So let Joe Biden take the same test .

DavidT8899 · 22-25, M

@windinhishair Ill direct you to my response to SomeMichGuy.

@DavidT8899 The test that Trump passed is a very general memory test for the beginnings of dementia. I'm sure Biden has taken the same test or similar test many times during his normal exams due to his age. Although Trump lied that he "aced" the test and that "no one had ever done so well", it is a test that any normal adult can pass easily.

DavidT8899 · 22-25, M

@windinhishair Again,If that's the case ,then I'm sure Biden will have no problem taking it.And contrary to your claims,I suspect that he has taken no such test,or else the media would have pointed it out by now.

@DavidT8899 As incredible as it may seem, doctor patient interactions are protected under HIPAA. I doubt you would want to read about how deathly Ill Trump was with Covid, or sbout his addiction to Adderall. There is no need to stoop to a non-diagnostic parlor trick to appease right-wing MAGA nuts.

DavidT8899 · 22-25, M

@windinhishair And yet when Donald Trump was President,the progressive party demanded the "non -diagnostic parlor trick"for him -and sure didn't have any concerns for confidentiality.I only say that the same standard be applied to the current President.

windinhishair · 61-69, M

@DavidT8899 Actually, they never asked for him to do a parlor trick like Trump was boasting about. It doesn't tell you much.

“Major loss of cognition and signs of utter confusionthat are current presidents displays.”

You’re confusing him with his predecessor, who can’t get from point A to point B without going directly to point Z and zigzagging his way back, though never to the start. Let’s have a listen, shall we?

@DavidT8899

SW-User

@DavidT8899

Yeah, about passing that cognitive test:

DavidT8899 · 22-25, M

@SW-User And I'm sure you could just as many ,if not more,such instances from Joe Biden.I repeat:if Trump can take the test,so can he .

DavidT8899 · 22-25, M

@SW-User Once again:if that's the case,Joe Biden should have no problem with the test himself.

SW-User

@DavidT8899 Why don’t you locate them for us, then? I’m quite sure Biden will pass it-he doesn’t appear to be displaying ongoing symptoms of frontotemporal dementia, unlike his predecessor.

SW-User

@DavidT8899 Great! He’s not displaying the symptoms of frontotemporal dementia like his opponent, so he should ace it!

DavidT8899 · 22-25, M

@SW-User So we agree!Joe Biden should take the test.

SW-User

@DavidT8899 Absolutely. I fear, however, that the result will not match your expectations.

windinhishair · 61-69, M

@DavidT8899 It is hilarious that with all the problems in the world, and all of the issues to address, the most important and pressing issue of all for MAGAts is for Biden to take a meaningless test.

DavidT8899 · 22-25, M

@SW-User Well,I suppose we shall see-if Biden ever agrees to the test.

DavidT8899 · 22-25, M

@windinhishair No,it's not the most pressing issue in the world.But it is warranted ,given alot of the Presidents behavior.And it would be a good faith gesture,as well as a way to refute people who insist that he's mentally impaired.Assuming,of course,that he has nothing to hide.😉

windinhishair · 61-69, M

@DavidT8899 Meaningless tests are by definition unwarranted. It won't provide the type of information that you think it will. And if people are consuming right wing media that falsely portray Biden, leading them to believe he is mentally impaired, then "good faith gesture" has no meaning to them.

He has nothing to hide, as anyone who has actually watched his speeches can tell.

@DavidT8899 I think the debate will be a much better cognitive test: can they address the question; can they logically connect their points; can they keep track of time. That's a fair amount more demanding than Trump's touted accomplishment of

SomeMichGuy · M

@DavidT8899

Well,he still managed to do so well on a cognitive test,didn't he?So let Joe Biden take the same test .

If you remember, a doctor who was asked about what "passing" the test meant said, "If you flunk this, we take away your car keys." ANYone should pass it.
