That's pretty smart. You know he would never do it.
He's just going to say "I'm the smartest person ever to be president, the doctor I paid said so. I took the test already: person, woman, man, camera, TV!"
Technically 4 words, woman is a derivitive of man in their minds. Well 3 because person is gender neutral and can't have that either.

And he keeps talking about the tests if he just took it. Which either means he can't really process the fact that it happened in the past anymore, or they really do have to test him often. Neither is a good look for anyone's grandpa, much less a grandpa who wants to run the free world.

It'd be smarter if they got him to actually do it, so I don't see your point... The man genuinely has dementia.
I guess that depends on whether you think he's narcissistic enough to believe his own lies?
It's wild that such intense questions like "Can you identify a giraffe?", "Can you draw a clock?", "Can you count backwards by 7s?", and "Who is the current president?" was apparently such a grueling ordeal for Donald that he's still bragging about it years later.
"Who is the current president?"
Yeah that one might be an issue for him..
Can you count backwards by 7s
counting backwards in multiples of 7? i'd struggle with that and i consider myself at least average
0, -7, -14, -22... dangit
It’s probably like field sobriety tests, where how you struggle is relevant. If you miss one in a sequence, that says something different from repeatedly going up instead of down or counting backwards on your hands first.

New debate idea: instead of political questions, have the whole thing hosted by a panel of psychologists who give a thorough assessment to both candidates live on stage.
At the end, they collectively review all findings and conclude the event by making any diagnosis the data merits.
And their political affiliations would be somehow above questioning?
Have you met our Supreme Court?

It must be wild being in her position, being so overwhelmingly more capable than her opponent, and having to find out how to get stubborn people to acknowledge that and care about it.
She should disguise this test, and throw in basic questions about US history and politics. Trump will fail so hard it won't even be funny.
This is the guy who talked about the continental army in the 1700's invading airports. He's real fucking stupid.
No need to do that
The guy is struggling enough as it is
But you throw in questions about dictators and he'll know the answers better than he knows what state he's living in. It's possible the only book he's ever read is Mein kempf
I've been dreaming of a Trump IQ test forever. I'm almost certain he would be below average. Someone should trick him to do one by saying it's the crypto bro club test that Harris failed or something.
What color crayon do you reckon he would use to fill in the form?
The perfect crayon. It was the bigliest. It was so pretty, just like my daughter...
In fairness, "most" people his age would be below "average".
Edit: oh, apparently it doesn't work like that. 100 is supposed to be average regardless of age?
I feel like he'd lie and say he did the test already and he passed it
the same one she takes? so not the one that asked him to name a handful of things that conveniently happened to be around him when he talked about it to the press?
I've been wondering why she doesn't invite both of them to take one.
These fucks blurt out all their motivations and weaknesses, you only need to aggressivey seize on them and hold their feet to the fire till they cry uncle
Challenge Trump to a foot race for President since his supporters going around burning ballot boxes.
Like with a TV Debate with Harris, he won't agree to this, as he knows that he has no chance to win.
She shouldn't even say this. Cognitive tests are for those showing signs of dementia. That trump took one at all is all that we need to know.
People do "cognitive tests" for all kinds of reasons. The kind for dementia is only one of a large variety of tests that fit in this very broad category.
