Trump and his two administrations have always been evasive about his health. Instead of releasing his medical records, Donald Trump made excuses or only released summaries and notes from his doctors. Trump is the most evasive president since Ronald Reagan when it comes to not disclosing his health problems.
Reagan’s assessment is retroactive because the American people did not discover the true extent of Reagan’s Alzheimer’s disease until long after he left office. During his second term, it was long suspected that Reagan was in decline, and his administration hid it.
Forty years later, the American people regularly see an unpopular president showing signs of cognitive decline.
A week ago, Donald Trump bragged about taking another dementia test:
They have Jasmine Crockett, a low IQ person. They have, uh, AOC, low IQ. You give her an IQ test, you make her pass, like the exams that I decided to take when I was at Walter Reed, I took, they’re very difficult. Um, they’re really aptitude tests, I guess, in a way, but their cognitive tests, uh, let AOC oppose Trump.
Okay, let Jasmine oppose Trump. I don’t think, Jasmine, that the first questions are easy, a tiger, an elephant, a giraffe. You know, when you get to five or six, and then when you get to 10, 20 and 25, they can’t answer any of those questions.
In the same conversation with reporters, Trump also bragged about having had an MRI and bragged that it was perfect.
No one asked why Trump had an MRI until a week later.
