Trump says he ‘aced’ third cognitive exam in defense of ‘perfect’ health

Trump claims to have passed three cognitive tests with perfect scores and calls for mandatory cognitive exams for presidential candidates, amid ongoing health scrutiny.

  • On Friday, President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social that he is in 'PERFECT HEALTH' and 'ACED' his Cognitive Examination with a 100% score for the third straight time.
  • In a Thursday Wall Street Journal profile, reporters raised questions about Trump’s health, citing aspirin use, stopped compression socks for swollen ankles, and regrets over advanced imaging scrutiny.
  • Social media users quickly questioned why Trump repeated his cognitive test claim, while Sarah Longwell, conservative pollster, and MeidasTouch mocked his repeated boasting.
  • Trump wrote that anyone running for President or Vice President should be mandatorily forced to take a proven Cognitive Examination, framing the issue around competence, saying 'Our great Country cannot be run by 'STUPID' or INCOMPETENT PEOPLE!'
  • Critics argued cognitive tests are for those showing dementia and noted Trump had announced passing a third test just last month, with commentators calling taking three exams undesirable.
