Donald Trump was bragging again about his impressive cognitive tests — this time at a cabinet meeting, where he claimed that other presidents before him were allegedly afraid of the tests. Naturally, that prompted people to be curious about what the cognitive test actually entails.
The cognitive test that Trump took is called the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). There’s clearly a reason why his doctors would believe he needed such a test — the impromptu MRIs and the dozing off during meetings would be an indicator. There’s also the very real concern that his advanced age might be affecting how he carries himself and, more importantly, how he makes decisions.
