Yesterday I had my annual physical under Medicaid. I'm Trump's age. I was asked to draw a clock and place the hands at 12:25. I was given three words - captain, garden, picture - and asked to repeat them in order about 10 minutes later. While we were chatting about my medical history, I asked the nurse practitioner why the word and clock test didn't include more questions. She said that if I flunked the word and clock test, they would go ahead and give me a longer, more detailed test.
I "aced" the word and clock test. It's pretty certain that Trump didn't and had to take the more detailed test, which he probably also flunked.
Anybody who can't pass the word and clock test shouldn't be President.
The Lincoln Project should look into this.
