I took a closer look at the cognitive test Trump claims to have aced

The test is called the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), and was created by the neurologist Dr Ziad Nasreddine in 1996. Talking to MarketWatch on Monday, Nasreddine stressed that the test “is supposed to be easy for someone who has no cognitive impairment”, stressing that “this is not an IQ test or the level of how a person is extremely skilled or not. The test is supposed to help physicians detect early signs of Alzheimer’s.”

  1. See, this'll be another turn off for voters. Oh my gosh, we tested Trump and we think he has Alzheimer's.
    What about Biden? Did you test Biden? Because when you watch him, it's kind of obvious.
    Oh no! We didn't test Biden! No need! He clearly doesn't have it!
