There was also this. That's "I love lamp" levels of ridiculousness.

That article

Donald Trump has divulged details of a cognitive test he "aced" -- including a five-word memory challenge he said proved he had the "mental stamina" to lead the U.S.

"Person. Woman. Man Camera. TV," the U.S. president recited [...]

In the article linked from that article.

The Canadian doctor behind the cognitive test Donald Trump recently took says the U.S. president's results are "normal performance," adding that the assessment is not an intelligence or an IQ test.

It's just weird how disconnected he is from reality sometimes.

The whole question I had around that was; what would make your physician choose to give you a cognition test? The answer is; a reasonable suspicion that you are showing signs of cognitive decline, i.e. dementia. So: he was bragging that "my doctor thought I might have dementia, but he gave me a test and I showed that my brain is broadly functional".

There's some implications he may have had a "series of mini strokes" which would have led to such a test. He claimed that he hadn't had a "series of mini strokes" when no one said he did (a journalist did theorise he had a stroke, but not as specific as a series of mini strokes). So yeah, pretty blatant that one.

Then there were his weird involuntary twitches that he had. In three more years his brain will likely be as functional as a potato.

u/theBytemeister 15d ago

That would be a significant improvement!

I don't think he could power a basic alarm clock

I’m surprised he didn’t brag about the size of his strokes.

The biggest strokes you’ve ever seen. Doctors tell me all the time they’ve never seen such big strokes and - hillary. She can’t handle big strokes like that. That’s a shame, China sent us this virus.

— trump, probably.

There's evidence that even a mild case of covid can cause permanent mental decline. He wasn't doing too great before he got covid, but I'm sure getting covid up to the point he had to get supplemental oxygen didn't help.

He only bothers to deny things that are true.

You all forgetting who is currently president and the lengths to which his team goes to hide his failing cognition? Trump said some dumb shit but the things Biden says and does are genuinely scary.

u/PendingDeletion 15d ago

Oh… well, I don’t want to take up too much of your time.

So how about just one then… what’s the “scariest” example you know of, and what lengths did his team go to in order to hide it?

u/glimpee 15d ago

Mixing up lybia and syria was maybe the most troubling, cuz he kept doing it. You cant make those kind of mistakes when leading the most powerful army in the world in history

Psaki and the whitehouse are constantly playing "what biden really said/meant was..." - notice too how youll almost never see clips of him talking, just transcripts (that are edited for clarity)

u/PendingDeletion 15d ago

Go on…

u/bc5608 15d ago

It’s a daily occurrence. Examples abound, too numerous to spend time listing them all. Google “bidens mental health” and read to your heart’s content. Some funny/scary videos as well.

Ugh, you were THAT kid on the playground, huh?

u/drainbead78 15d ago

The kid who always got his ass beat? Yeah, probably.

u/Peeping_thom 15d ago

He got his ass beat at home, came to school in dirty clothes, ate free cheese sandwiches for lunch, then made fun of everyone else to try and make himself feel better about his shitty situation.

But not from any of those "lamestream media" places! They're all under the control of George Soros!

u/_MCMXCIX 15d ago

Surely if there are so many examples you could provide a source for just one, right? Unless you're just talking out of your ass, but why would you ever do that?

u/A_Canadian_appears 15d ago

What has Biden said that's "scary"? The fuck does that even mean? You don't have to list all the numerous examples, but just one would suffice. Should be easy for you if they're abound.

u/eggplantpunk 15d ago

No one asked you to list them all. Tell us three.

You have a brain the size of trumps. Non existent.

Fucking moron.
