I wanted to take the cognitive test the orange man took after he proclaimed how brilliant he is, the most brilliant human the doctors had ever seen. Looking at the test above confused me because there weren't any instructions, so I watched these people take the test. They are bright, young people who were as nervous as I was, but as the creator of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment pointed out, it's not an IQ test, although there is math, which is highly unfair because I'm terrible with numbers if I have to use just my head. It was quite fun watching them take it. And as I watched them sometimes stumble, especially repeating back the five words they were told minutes earlier, I am convinced there is absolutely no way Trump remembered them. That's likely the reason they continue to test him because they want to see how far and fast he is mentally failing. We see it all the time such as when he called Gavin Newsom the president, or, he can't remember the word for when people start to forget things. Oh, the irony. The test usually takes about ten minutes and a score of 26 is in a good range of  mental acuity. Oh, to be a fly on the wall as Trump is asked to repeat the five words given earlier. The group also had to name as many words as they could starting with the letter B. I'm sorry, I'm just having a chuckle imagining Trump at this point. I can visualize him going so off track. "Bomb, bug, bag, bomb, bag, bomb, big, huuuge..."

It's rather scary knowing he is mentally and physically failing. He's 80 years old so it's not a big surprise but adding how little he actually uses his brain is something I really worry about because  his sycophants will protect him until they have no use for him, then bail. As Trump took the test I'm guessing he tried to con his way through the whole ten minute assessment. He probably dismissed it, maybe even tried to bribe the staff, or just sat there until everyone realized how useless the whole process was. No one tells Trump what to do or say. If he says a horse is an elephant, then a horse is an elephant because he's always right. 

*Ha! I remembered the five words (from the video) I'm brilliant, beautiful, boss, bananas, berserk biscuit...

That test is trickier than I figured! I aced it, of course, because I'm the greatest Ferrerman- EVER- like no one has ever seen before. But in all seriousness, there's no way he aced it. Especially the math. Interesting that they keep bothering, if it is the same test each time. Maybe that's the key? If he can't retain the same answers, he's in bad shape.

They might give him variations but it's the same. I just don't understand why they protect him.
