[–] Aeao@lemmy.world 45 points 10 months ago (4 children) Okay so this is the second time he’s done that right? He’s confused a dementia test for an IQ test… twice… Is that not a sign he might have dementia or something? He should at least remember us making fun of him for it the first time right? This is an honest question btw. Am I’m missing something? It’s happened twice now? permalink fedilink source hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] Jarix@lemmy.world 23 points 10 months ago (1 child) I mean it could just mean he has incredibly low IQ, maybe? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago Or both permalink fedilink source parent [–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago They could also be lying to him what the test really is because he would refuse a dementia test otherwise. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Zron@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago The thing with IQ or any cognitive test, is they’re only administered when there’s a call for one. If trump was behaving like a normal man his age, then there wouldn’t likely be a cognitive test. Just like how most people who get an IQ test are only tested if they’re either exceptionally advanced or exceptionally behind in their learning. Yet he’s either too demented or too cognitively slow to realize that the fact his doctors want tests means that something seems wrong to them. permalink fedilink source parent [–] TRock@feddit.dk 2 points 10 months ago Imo you answered your own question👍 permalink fedilink source parent
