1. "And then it gets REALLY HARD!!"

"...Like they got all these shapes... like there's circles and squares and triangles... so many shapes nobody's ever seen that many shapes... and you have to put them in the right holes. And you just go in cold and I bet Joe Biden couldn't do that. The doctor's said they've never even seen anyone over 4 years old do that!"

"...and then there's these barn yard animal sounds and its like 'A rooster says'... WHO CAN DO THAT? Nobody can do that!"

3. My daughter, a teacher, gave the Mini-mental state exam

(commonly used for what Trump is talking about - a cognitive test)
to my niece and two nephews.

They have a test designed for kids but these kids did the adult test.
8 year old scored 30/30
6 year old scored 24/30
4 year old scored 18/30
We hope to have a feeling from those results to give us an idea of what kind of care their grandmother needed.

92 year old grandmother scored 14/30 - she had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's
Later, her scores dropped to 11, 8 & finally 3

If Trump had scored perfect, that is what we would have heard.

5. One of the questions on a MSE is "who is the president?"

An MSE is a little different than an Alzheimer’s screening tool, as the screening tool asks you to draw a clock with hands at a certain time, and other tasks that screen for dementia.

6. When my MIL was given that question a couple of years ago

she (then 88yo) replied "that fucking Trump." Grandma had learned a new word.
The doctor said in private that they hated asking that question because some folks got really upset.

7. LOL - "that fucking trump" - love your grandma. nt

13. My father was asked that the last time he was in the hospital in 2017....

His answer: "the son of a bitch!" (And he VOTED for tRump! Of course, what he said about Hillary Clinton cannot be repeated here--he despised her even more. He was a tRumpist at heart, but he really hated ALL politicians, regardless of party. He was a big impediment to my involvement in politics; I just couldn't find a way to deal with his hatred of politics.)

9. They ask me that in the hospital last year after surgery

I told them some stupid SOB that didn't know his ass from a hole in the ground. The nurse laughed and said you got it right.

16. I just had surgery in March and they ask me and I gave the Doc a dirty look and he just laughed.

18. On that particular Mini-mental state exam, there were questions that involved drawing

and/or the use of a writing instrument like a pen or pencil.

I gave that test to a friend who was dying of cancer and about to sign his will to provide evidence of his mental capacity.

A side effect of the cancer was an aggressive arthritis that attacked some joints - especially his hands.

So we skipped three questions because of that.

One of the three questions involved writing words or a sentence.
One of the three questions involved replicating a multi-sided shape by drawing it.
I think (not positive) that the third question was to draw the hands of a clock at a certain time.

4. OMG the Idiot aced his Alzheimer's test! Never been seen before!

8. Wish Wallace would have pressured him to count backwards by 7

Or handed him a Bible and ask him to read John 3:16. He would have failed both miserably.

[yuiyoshida]

10. He should have asked him to repeat the alphabet ... Trump would have failed...

or cheated.

[Delphinus]

11. I just

counted back from 100 by 7 - can't say it's the easiest thing, because I'm not good at math in my head, but I did it. Am I now "Queen of the World"?

[Dem2theMax]

17. I can't do it. But I never could. I do not have a single math gene in my head.

12. Whitehouse staffer leaks Spuds cognitive test

15. The "Stable Genius's" first answer would have been "107."
