Again I say, if you wrote this as fiction, nobody would believe it. “No character can be that stupid,” you would say. “This isn’t plausible.” And you would be correct in so stating. But when we’re dealing with Donald Trump, the ridiculousness is a feature, not a bug. Trumpty’s newest ax to grind is against the “fake news” in the Wall Street Journal and its owner and of course, Uncle Joe. How could he escape?

Trump believes that the dementia test he took, for the purpose of seeing if he could function mentally at all, was somehow an Olympic-level intelligence test. He’s always thought that and nobody can disabuse him of the notion. Stroll down memory lane and watch this. Trump is so proud. He’s like a toddler that makes boom booms in the toilet for the first time on his own.
TRUMP: I asked the doctor, I said, 'is there some kind of cognitive test that I could take?' … the last questions are much more difficult. Like a memory question. You'll go 'person, woman, man, camera, TV.' So they say — 'can you repeat that?' … for me it was easy." 😳 pic.twitter.com/pCKYoNy3BH

He repeated five nouns in a row. Wow. What a feat of mental gymnastics. I am in awe all over again. I had forgotten how wonderful this was the first time.
Did they give him a certificate of achievement for passing the test? Anybody know?
Now here’s some good news for the GOP. And Lord knows they need it.

You see? There’s the silver lining to the cloud. Coco the Gorilla is as smart as Trump, put Coco on the ticket. And I’ll bet Coco could put Infrastructure Week together and maybe even draft a medical insurance plan.
No, wait, I’ve got it now: Trump puts Coco on the ticket as VP and then he resigns, when he can’t self-pardon and then Coco pardons him. And then Coco does health care, infrastructure, solves the opioid crisis and sends one of his relatives to Mars. That’s the way to do this.
And the added irony is that his list showed he had not aced the test. He offered a closely related series of words. The dementia test is all about recalling a much more loosely related series like this one:

MAGA, Cult, Victim, Martyr, Prison. Can you memorize that, Donald?
But I’m a super-genius (according to Ronnie ajnd I’m also super fit)
One of Donald Trump’s security detail noticed that a small jigsaw of a simple picture was on the desk in the oval office. Over the next month he noticed that the puzzle was slowly being completed. On the thirtieth day he happened to be in the office he observed Donald clipping in the final piece. He couldn’t help but comment, “Has that puzzle taken you a month to do sir?”
A beaming Donald Trump looked across and said “Yes, I aced it. It says here on the box, ‘Picture puzzle: 2-4 years’
This may or may not be a true story, but it IS believable.
Huh? Does not this stable genius understand there’s no pass fail in the mini-mental test, to gloat over. It’s also not an intelligence test, which again he fails to grasp. One simply has to do as best possible; which is a high bar fo the stable genius to get over, so he’ll slither under it. At best this mental mini of a specimen has failed any attempt to justify his challenge to his enemies. Again, all this is just another angle on how he has failed, is failing, and continues to spectacularly fail. He’s a puffed-up delusional failure that cannot rationally relate to lessons gleaned from memory, logically focus and concentrate, or follow other advice and instructions.
nurse asked me just a few of those questions at my wellness exam, including “draw a clock”.
what will they do when the upcoming generations are only familiar with digital clocks?
Sadly, Coco cannot run, she is dead. I agree she would have been an improvement on 45.
She still would be, dead or not.
My cat,who comprehend English though she cannot speak it,has better communication skills than Donnie Donuts.
The only Congressman who could do this justice is Barney Frank.
