On Monday, leading Republican presidential candidate and 45th President Donald Trump took to Truth Social to demand that President Joe Biden take a cognitive test as the 81-year-old Democrat campaigns for another four years in the White House. If elected to a second term, Biden would leave office in 2029 at age 86.
“Whenever I sarcastically insert the name Obama for Biden as an indication that others may actually be having a very big influence in running our Country, Ron DeSanctimonious and his failing campaign apparatus, together with the Democrat’s Radical Left’ Disinformation Machine,’ go wild saying that ‘Trump doesn’t know the name of our President, (CROOKED!) Joe Biden. He must be cognitively impaired,'” Trump wrote in reference to recent attacks. “No, I know both names very well, never mix them up, and know that they are destroying our Country. Also, and as reported, I just took a cognitive test as part of my Physical Exam, and ACED it. Also ACED (a perfect score!) one taken while in the White House. Biden should take one so we can determine why he wants Open Borders, No Energy Independence, A Woke Military, High Inflation, No Voter I.D., Men playing In Women’s Sports, Only Electric Cars & Trucks, A Weaponized DOJ/FBI, and so many other CRAZY things!!!”
Trump’s challenge to Biden comes just days after Dr. Bruce A. Aronwald completed his assessment of the 45th president’s health, writing, “I am pleased to report that President Trump’s overall health is excellent. His physical exams were well within the normal range and his cognitive exams were exceptional. In addition, his most recent extensive laboratory analysis remains well within normal limits and was even more favorable than prior testing in some of the most significant parameters, most likely secondary to weight reduction. Cardiovascular studies are all normal and cancer screening tests are all negative. President Trump has reduced his weight through an improved diet and continued daily physical activity, while maintaining a rigorous schedule.”
“It is my opinion that President Trump is currently in excellent health, and with his continued interest in preventative health monitoring and maintenance, he will continue to enjoy a healthy, active lifestyle for years to come,” Aronwald added.
Biden has repeatedly fallen during his presidency, and his gaffe-filled speeches are worrying Americans who are contemplating whether to elect the elderly Democrat to another four years in office. A mid-September Reuters/Ipsos poll found that 75 percent of those polled, including 65 percent of Democrats, said Biden is too old to be president. Additionally, only 39 percent of voters believed that Biden was mentally sharp enough to hold the most powerful office in the world.
