Trump Admits That He Has Been Tested For Dementia Twice In A Year Plus
At the White House, Donald Trump confirmed that he has had three dementia screenings and that they were hard tests to pass, which isn't the accomplishment that Trump thinks it is.
It is not a secret to anyone who is willing to use their eyes and ears that Donald Trump is in decline. A recent ABC News/Washington Post poll found that nearly 60% of Americans believe that Donald Trump doesn’t have the mental sharpness required to be president. 55% of respondents expressed the belief that Trump isn’t physically able to perform the duties of the presidency.
This would seem to be a big problem.

Trump set out to put the issue to rest by complaining about how difficult his dementia screenings are.
Trump went off on one of his favorite self-incriminating rants, which is how being screened for dementia proves that he is really smart.
The president said:
One of the things I said is that we should have, in my opinion, anybody running for president or vice president should take a cognitive test. And no president has ever taken one except me. I've taken three of them and I've aced each one.
One in the first administration, two over here. And whenever they get a little sassy "Does he still have it? Does he still have what it takes?" I say, "All right, I'll take another one."
And they are hard. There are many people in this room I know that are smart. They're not gonna ace it. There are many people standing back there, the fake news made it there. I'd like to have them ... the first question, it's very easy, and they always show the first question is, you have a lion, a bear, an alligator, and a, what's another good, a squirrel, okay? Which is the squirrel?
In case you missed it, Trump admitted that he has been screened for dementia three more times than any other president in history.
To make matters even worse, two of those screenings have come within the last year plus that he has been back in office, which suggests that somebody somewhere has some serious concerns that Trump’s mind is slipping.
Since Donald Trump never knows when he should be quiet, the president kept talking.
