He reminds me of the riddle of the two doors with one man who always lies and one who always tells the truth… you can get the truth from both if you know who is who.
If he says he aced a cognitive test it means he’s exhibiting cognitive decline.

Nobody needed to ever give Obama a cognitive test.

We have seen him try to explain drug discounts with percentages. He doesn’t understand how math works.

There is exactly a 0% chance he got that right. Even with a calculator

Kevin Malone could do it if it were about pies.
Maybe Trump can about underage children.

Genuinely surprised he did mot drop a “billions” in there somewhere
On the real test they make you subtract a number such as 7 from 100 over and over again. 93, 86, etc. Dude was probably sweating or actually failed. Person, woman, man, camera, tv means he forgot the memory portion by interview time because the 5 words must be unrelated. Maybe he was looking around the tv studio. The more he brags about acing a dementia test while calling it an IQ test the more I think he failed and his doctors fudged it for him. People are focusing on how passing such a super easy test doesn’t mean anything. I’m not sure he even passed.

The test he frequently describes as “acing”, the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, does not include this type of math question. It does, however, ask the subject to count backwards (e.g. from 50 by 7s), a much simpler mathematical operation.
It’s worth noting that “confabulation”, which Trump is doing here, is also a symptom of dementia.

Someone told him that “identifying a horse” isn’t the flex he thinks it is, so he’s decided to amp up the complexity, with quite predictable results.

Doctor: “What is the answer, sir?”
Trump: “Gravy”
Doctor: “It was a trick question and you answered it perfectly, sir.”
The entire room of doctors began applauding and then cried tears of joy at being fortunate enough to have even a single moment in Trump’s presence. The female doctors instantly became pregnant at being so close to a being with that much virility and vigor.

Says the guy that can reduce something by more than 100%, lol
theboundbunny on
Of course he knows the answer! He can’t tell YOU what it is though…..duh. 🙄
kalel1980 on
Ok, so why didn’t he say what the answer was? Lol I know, cuz he’s lying. Also, that’s not a question on a cognitive test. Meaning he never took one.

I will use this next time I see a math problem I need to solve. “Don’t worry I got it right”.

No, he’s recounting the conversation.
“What is the answer, sir?”
“I got it right”
Just left off the next part: “Yes, I’m sure you did, but I asked you to draw a clock.”
Maehock on
Oh, I’m sure they told him it was correct. After he answered everyone in the room but Trump gave each other an awkward, knowing look.
The same way I told my grandmother “That’s right, gram. Let’s get you back to bed.” Decades ago when she was suffering with dementia.

But he couldn’t tell you the answer just now… only that he got it right

Sir, pick a number, now reduce it by 600%, multiply it by $-1.5B and then divide by 24. That’s what your war costs this country every hour.

His idea of intelligence is what I thought intelligence was in third grade
snosberry_snot on
LOL. I don’t think he could calculate 10% of a number. I have heard him talk about percentages before.
nextyoyoma on
This is the man who thinks 100 is 500% less than 600 and recently learned that “dumb” has a “b” in it.
Someone should have yelled out “What’s the answer?!?!?!” And watch him squirm.
But of course the cult would never do that…
Nawoitsol on
His use of “sir” is one of the tells that he’s lying. His lips moving is another.

I love that he never gives the number.

Does he remember what his answer was?

I’d love to see a journalist ask him to repeat that. Hell, at this point, I’d love to just see a journalist.

I suck at math. Id flunk that question.
Ecstatic_Account_744 on
There’s a clip of him out there trying to do a relatively simple multiplication, like 9×12 and he got it wrong.
I suck at math, and certainly don’t bother trying to multiply in my head so I’m not saying I’m super duper smarter than him. However, if you couldn’t do that, you sure as hell aren’t doing whatever nonsense he’s claiming he did.

Does he also always score a hole in one at golf… On another course, on the other side of the city?

I’m super smart. You could ask me a question like “What’s the biggest company in the world”, and I would be all “blah blah blah, blah blah blah”, and give you the right answer
gearsfordays on
I like how he gave the specific number he chose but then didn’t share the answer he “got right”. I’m not saying I could do that math that fast in my head, but I also didn’t brag about being able to do it.

Our media is failing us. Some reporter should ask him to do math.

Im sorry, is this even a question that people usually get right? What percentage of humans can correctly multiply a non round three digit number by a 4 digit non round number in their head in under 10 seconds?

Fuck why 19 now

Edit: I fucked up on the addition, it’s so over
Edit again: I actually fucked up typing into the calculator to check my work which might be worse
A much younger and more mentally able Trump tries to do math on the Howard Stern show.

A math test is not part of a cognitive test.
An inveterate liar.
