Trump Brags He 'Aced' Cognitive Test, Correctly Identified a Whale
Trump Brags He 'Aced' Cognitive Test, Correctly Identified a Whale
Donald Trump has once again touted his ability to recognize different animal shapes.
He's been talking about these tests for years now. This means he either gets them regularly, or got it once and keeps thinking he just took the test last week. Neither scenario gives me confidence in his mental ability.
My grandmother with Alzheimer's passed those clinical tests long after she had already asked us to take away her keys because she knew she wasn't safe to drive anymore. So yeah...
So what you’re saying is, he’s a stable genius who’s more than qualified, and extremely fit to be the president of the United States?
Look, having nuclear — my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you're a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are — nuclear is so powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us, this is horrible."
This has to be out of context bullshit. Someone running for president again can’t be that dense.
“The first questions are very easy, the last questions are much more difficult. Like a memory question,” Trump preened in the interview. “It’s like, you’ll go, ‘Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.’ So they’d say, ‘Could you repeat that.’ So I said, ‘Yeah. So it’s person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.’”
DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW FUCKING STUPID THIS MAN IS?
Yeah, are we all stuck in some endless emperor's new clothes shit.
Can anyone honestly argue that this guy isn't either (a) super fucking dumb, (b) partially mentally deteriorated, or (c) both?
Yes, I do! That people want him to be the president is what's so troubling.
The "hilarious" part of that exchange was it's a memory test, so they give you a series of unrelated words (velvet, cracker, sleet, grandfather, doorway). Not only was the best example that his stupid stupid brain could come up with all related words, they were all (except maybe tv) things he could see at the time!
There’s almost always a monitor on set, which is basically a tv. So, yah. No exceptions.
You can't 'ace' a cognitive test any more than you can 'ace' reading an eye chart. It's a diagnostic test. And from the sounds of things, he needs to take it again.
The fact that he's already taken it at least twice is concerning.
I fear for that administrator's safety.
You know if he's bragging about it he definitely didn't get that question right
You mean it was on porpoise?
Whale Oil Beef Hooked
“I think it was 35… 30 questions. And let me tell you, you know, they always show you the first one: a giraffe, a tiger or a whale. ‘Which one is the whale?'”
He's done this enough times that he knows the first one is always this question? How many cognitive tests has he completed? Did he pass the others?
It's also insane that the bar is this low. You recognize animal shapes, here are the keys to the nuclear stockpile, have fun.
All of this shit is just so upsetting on an existential level. How is any of this real? It literally feels like a completely different country than the one I grew up in.
Bin Laden won. 9/11 broke everyone's brains, then electing a black man made 1/3 of the population just go completely batshit.
"Person, Man, Woman, Camera, TV"
I swear he's said something similar before, and the quote appears incomplete as I remember him going on to say "From there the questions get more difficult". As if he's pointing out that the first few questions are no brainers. At least that's my interpretation.
This kind of clickbait doesn't help anyone. Let's focus on how bad his policies are, all of the legal trouble he's in, and his lack of moral character.
Person, woman, man, camera, TV
He's always delivered word salads, but now appears to be more confused. He exhibits strange posturing/coordination with that weird fist pump thing that he tries to do. Ongoing reports of his odor suggests incontinence.
He might be able to whip up MAGA acolytes with angry invective, but he has dementia.
Ongoing reports of his odor suggests incontinence.
Please give me a citation because I do not want to verify this experimentally
Dude wears incontinence diapers. Or he stores his burgers in his underwear.

I too would avoid verifying the odor problem. I believe that some concerned Republicans are running the smear campaign about Trump's smearing. To be fair, they don't specify, and he could be incontinent of urine instead of fecal incontinence. He could be incontinent X 2, but that specific sort of information hasn't leaked yet.
Just Google "trump dump"...jk don't do that
When does he start bragging that he kept the colors inside the lines when he crayoned the kids' menu?
Right after he hands the US to Putin. Clearly.
Trump will never be able to convince me that he's not a fucking idiot. As evidence to support my position I'd like to cite everything he has ever said and done.
Could you imagine if you met the guy in a private, relaxed setting - and he was just some normal dude who was like, "yeah, I have to practice talking like an idiot to appeal to my base. It's kind of exhausting, to be honest, but you can't argue with results, so what can you do?"
It would be absolutely mind blowing.
But yeah, in reality, dude is obviously just a moron.
That's some Andy Kaufman level shit.
Right? No diagnostic test, no court of law can change the shit I've witnessed with my own eyes. If he's not convicted of a crime that's not everyone somehow assuming the worst and being wrong - we saw what we saw and if we can't convict it's only because our legal system is clearly bullshit. The guy belongs in a nursing home with a guy who thinks it's still 1941. I don't need a doctor to tell me that because I have fucking eyes.
Stares directly at the sun, wants to nuke hurricanes, advocates for drinking bleach, then there's whatever the fuck this is:
"Look, having nuclear — my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you're a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are — nuclear is so powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us, this is horrible."
I love the fact that he thinks it good his doctor made him take a cognitive test.
"Went to the doctor... smart doctor. Ronny Jackson, ladies and gentlemen. Hes a smart guy guy. Told me Nikki Haley has something going with her head, after her collapsing after that speech and i said you know, maybe i should take a cognative test right now and he agreed. Let me tell you it was easy. Had to identify a whale, let me tell you looked like Rosie O'Donnell... what a despicable person. I need a presidential immunity because of the witch hunts. Victor Orbán wouldn't let this happen to him. Strong leader. Aced the cognative test and the concussion test after, too"
I honestly have no idea if that's a real quote or if you're shitting me.
I'm not sure and that worries me. 🤔 seems a little too coherent, though.
He's so stupid, even his speeches have spelling mistakes.
How many doctors quit before one would give him a passing grade? We've seen how he burns through lawyers.
Well we can be pretty sure his BMI was a complete fraud (if that guy is 6' 3", then I'm 8 feet tall), why not this.
And I’m sure the doctor gave him a lollipop afterwards to make the booboo feel better.
"The doctor said this was the best lollipop he'd ever seen, folks. It was amazing."
Was the test a mirror?
Is the test in the same room with you right now Mr Trump?
"Dang'ol... gonna mumble paint chips mumble, mumble that Biden ... dang'ol DICTATOR. maga. THAT'S A WHALE!"
Doctors look at each other over a picture of an elephant.
"Very good, Sir. Next..."
But can he identify a dumbass insurrectionist? I think not!
Would there need to be a mirror involved?
Nosferatu can’t see themselves in those
At the next possible opportunity, a journalist should ask him what the answers to those invented "advanced" questions are.
I mean, I know they won't, but they should.
This is a Chris Christie joke.
So Trump identified Christie? How much coaching was required and how many tries did Trump get?
correctly identified a whale
So... he looked in a mirror and went, "Yeah that is me"
Way insulting to whales, imo.
Every 2 bit gambler thinks he’s a whale.
Every 2 bit gambler thinks he’s a whale.
Damn, that settles all of my fears.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Donald Trump, who has a penchant for crowing about hoarding classified documents and the crowd size on Jan. 6, 2021, boasted about acing a basic cognitive test in his continued efforts to prove his self-proclaimed title of an “extremely stable genius.”
During a campaign stop in New Hampshire Wednesday night, the former president touted his ability to correctly identify animals of different shapes.
Spawning countless memes, the former president touted back in 2020 how well he had done on a 10-minute assessment designed to detect mild cognitive impairment (such as early-onset dementia) during an interview with Fox News.
As Trump supporters stood in the cold waiting for the ex-president to take the stage on Wednesday, the scene echoed his visit to the state just a day before in southern New Hampshire where fans waited in the snow for the presumptive Republican nominee.
Trump, who has achieved the feat of being the only (four-time) indicted former or current president, was charged for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election, which his own officials at the time claimed was the most secure in U.S. history.
As the former president prepared for legal proceedings in ongoing cases against him, Trump swooped a historic win in Iowa on Monday with 51 percent of the caucus vote, defeating former U.N.
The original article contains 464 words, the summary contains 214 words. Saved 54%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Meanwhile the sitting president talks about ice cream and garbled English. LMFAO.
