Donald Trump has been wanging on about passing that cognitive test again, and the internet weighed in – 14 favourite comments
Back in 2020, Donald Trump went viral in a non-covid way after telling Fox News’ Marc K. Siegel about a cognitive test he had apparently insisted on taking.
“Person, woman, man, camera, TV” ended up on T-shirts and in countless skits, due to the then President seeming to think remembering five words was a huge intellectual achievement.
Four years later, with humiliating court cases mounting up, he’s still telling anyone who’ll listen about his cognitive supremacy.
Trump insists he’s not cognitively impaired in leaked footage at closed-door event because he took a test that included pictures of “a lion, a giraffe, a bear, and a horse” and could identify which one was a lion: “That’s not easy” pic.twitter.com/F9KMnE1lpJ

With his supporters rushing to insist he was just joking, the reactions from people who don’t own a MAGA hat were a lot more entertaining.

“I can identify a lion on a test” is quite the campaign slogan for a guy who fart snores his way through his first of four criminal trials.

Trump: Vote for me for president.
Narrator: Qualification?
Trump: I can pick out the lion in a line up.
MAGA: I’m telling you, the man was hand picked by god to save America.

It’s so hard, we start teaching our children when they are young with the hopes that they can identify all of the animals when they are in their late 70s. https://t.co/hnaIlCFtjz pic.twitter.com/FaiKvwpyqF

Is there anyone on X who has a problem recognizing a lion among “a lion, a giraffe, a bear, and a horse”? https://t.co/nADKaldSUV

One thing I know about really smart people. They do not have to tell anyone how smart they are. Not so smart people, on the other hand, have to constantly convince people they are not stupid. https://t.co/7LYCCmOQH2

As Columbo would say …just one more thing.
The first question on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) asks you to correctly identify the order of a sequence of numbers and letters. And the fourth question does not show you “a lion, a bear, a giraffe, and a horse.” It asks you to identify a lion, a camel, and a rhino. pic.twitter.com/vC6WCPyQLj
