Donald Trump still thinks his cognitive test was an IQ test, and suggests ‘low-IQ’ Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez should take one
If there’s one thing Donald Trump hates, it’s a person who will stand up to him. If there’s one thing he hates even more, it’s if that person is a woman.
It was, therefore, hardly a shocker when he made this ungracious and baseless remark about two Democratic congresswomen, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jasmine Crockett, who have both called out his shenanigans on many occasions.
Trump: "AOC — look. I think she's very nice. But she's very low IQ, and we really don't need low IQ. Between her and Crockett, we're gonna give 'em both an IQ test to see who comes out best. I took a real test at Walter Reed medical center and I aced it. Now it's time for them… pic.twitter.com/IlEUZd8Zlb

Here we go again, with the ‘person, woman, man, camera, TV’ test – represented here in the most hilarious way by Stephen Colbert.
While Trump might like to couch it as an IQ test, everyone else knows it was not – and they aren’t buying his attempted takedowns of AOC and Ms Crockett, either.

Once again, the MOCA is a dementia screening tool, not an IQ test. Identifying a camel is a pretty low bar. https://t.co/7t3zT6yxrs pic.twitter.com/s3nj9DujPu

Just the most powerful man in the world demonstrating he doesn’t know the difference between a cognitive decline assessment and an IQ test. https://t.co/I8PlRRv6F0

I know this isn't the point, but if AOC and Trump both took the same IQ test, it would be the most humiliating day of Trump's entire life. https://t.co/B29qSN2MC8

You don't "ace" an IQ test…that's not how IQ tests work, which he'd realize if he actually had "aced" one.

Trump conflating a competency test with an IQ test. Also, worth pointing out that Trump is always most obsessed with IQ when he's talking about women of colorhttps://t.co/GSGaoQcXqM

He really thinks he took an IQ test and not a “can he be left alone without shitting his pants” test https://t.co/F9leKCzLol

There’s more intelligence in one strand of @AOC and @JasmineForUS’s hair than in Trump’s actual brain… https://t.co/uGpuuCsBJX

Out of AOC and Trump, which one looked directly at an eclipse again?
And which one suggested injecting bleach to cure COVID? https://t.co/kAGZlzWJlR

Put politics aside. Anyone in a position of any level of authority talking about another person in any level of authority like this is not a "straight shooter." They are, in the parlance of the time, a fucking asshole. https://t.co/WEXxG7YpXQ

Projection from a man whose greatest intellectual achievement is remembering five words in order during a cognitive screening.
Let’s be clear: this isn’t about intelligence — it’s about power. AOC and Crockett challenge him, so he resorts to cheap insults and sexist jabs,…

He is such a joke. Their intelligence intimidates him.
