Six feet won't be deep enough for him.

And he repeated it!

Remember that bit of absurdity? Looks like that test itself was probably faked. Plus, you can't keep referring to a test you took 6 years ago as evidence for coherence today.

This article has appeared here on DU, but they didn't snip the parts below, that I recall.

Shadowing Trump’s attacks on mental fitness — his own father’s dementia

In the lead-up to the 2020 elections, Trump’s preoccupation with mental acuity took center stage again — this time, because of a test similar to the one his father had taken three decades earlier.

The Montreal test was created by Nasreddine in 1996 to look for early signs of impairment, using some similar markers, including a clock face test, to the ones that doctors used to diagnose Fred Trump Sr. a few years earlier.
In the summer of 2020, Trump appeared on Fox News to boast of his “amazing” performance on the test — including a recitation of words he said he was asked to memorize and said in succession: “Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.” (Those words would never have appeared in that order in the test, Nasreddine recently told The Post, noting that related words such as “man” and “woman” aren’t used in a sequence.)

If Trump has not taken the test since 2018, Nasreddine said, it would be past time to do it again, given how cognitive capability can decline exponentially as one gets older. Then, if a test showed decline, it might make sense to get further tests that could indicate whether there are signs of Alzheimer’s or other dementia.

Including actual "tests" and time on the links, where he did not copy from his neighbor or overtly cheat in other ways. He probably isn't capable of playing anything straight that has a duration exceeding 15 seconds, such as the tests given oldsters for mental slippage.

Additionally, I would add- This test is NEVER administered unless an individual is a nursing home type setting!

I live in my own home, drive, do my own shopping, cooking, housework, gardening, caring for pets, and some political work.

Noticing some memory issues, I mentioned my concern to my primary caregiver, and mentioned my sister, 10 years my senior, had just died with dementia. She scoffed, saying I was always lucid when we talked, but would have someone come in and give me the basic short little test.

I did fine, until the young lady giving me the 'test' asked me to repeat back the 5 words she gave me when we started the test. Told her, you forgot to give me 5 words when we started & I have been waiting for them all along. The 20 something aid said, "No, I gave them to.... oh shit, I forgot that part".

So, that test was administered to me. I am not in a nursing home. And the 20 something is the one who failed. Rest assured, I do not put much faith in the test, because I know my mental state is not as sharp as it used to be. That test is stupid and I agree it probably should not be relied on by one's primary care as the decider of whether a visit to a specialist might be in order.

As the signs become more clear.

At least politically. I doubt this makes any difference to anyone who is going to vote for him or considering voting for him.

When they were calling Biden too old and having dementia, they simply were projecting Don Poorleone.

They get away with time and again. It’s how republicans build their base.
