Trump boasts 'a lot' of his fans could not pass his dementia screening test



The Daily Beast reports President Donald Trump bragged about his ability to correctly identify common animals while touting his mental prowess on Friday, and he even suggested his fans could not pass such a test.

Trump, who is now 79, said at a rally in Central Florida that he is proud that he managed to ‘ace’ three cognitive tests identifying animals like giraffes, bears and sharks.

“You know I’m the only president to take a cognitive test, because I don’t think Obama could pass it. Didn’t he get into Harvard with a C-Average? I don’t think he could pass it. Biden? Give me a break,” Trump told the crowd at The Villages Charter School in Sumterville.

But then Trump told his crowd of supporters that many of them had no hope to pass a test designed to identify mental deterioration.

“The first question is very easy. I lion, a giraffe a bear and a shark. They say which one is the bear. Everybody says it’s a very standard test but it gets pretty tough around those last 10 questions. Not too many people – even in this very room … But I’m in a room of brilliant people but a lot of you wouldn’t have been able to answer those ten questions.”

Observers claim Trump is showing signs of mental deterioration, hence the cognitive tests the president has had to endure.

Trump's recent handshaking gaffe during the recent visit from U.K. royals was interpreted by some as an example of rude, self-absorbed behavior — but one medical expert opined that the movement looked more like a warning sign for his dementia.
