The seemingly inevitable question no journalist has asked Trump

22. Misanthrope wasn't saying the test was required

But wondering why a patient who clearly needed it during that visit wasn't required to have it more often or regularly. Doctors don't go there for giggles and grins, but because the patient has exhibited a clear sign of cognitive impairment. That's why you can get by with an assessment based on a simple chat, while your spouse requires the MOCA.

I, too, would like to know why the doctors felt compelled to have him undergo the MOCA test, what the indicator was that triggered having him take it. Something told them his cognition was that questionable, or they never would have done the test.

I suspect this is what misanthrope is also wondering, but everyone else seems to be going off on unrelated tangents.

So I'll make it simple: What was the sign of cognitive impairment that had the doctors perform that test? Yeah, yeah, HIPAA, but I consider it beyond important to know the answer to that when the patient is now running for elected office.
