Cognitive Test Trump Took Screens for Dementia, Not Intelligence
President Donald Trump recently stated his physical examination results were “extremely good,” claiming a perfect 30 out of 30 score on a cognitive test. Medical experts believe this to be the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, a tool designed to detect cognitive impairment rather than measure intelligence. While a perfect score indicates normal cognitive function, Trump has inaccurately described the test as measuring “extreme intelligence” and of “high difficulty.”
