Twitter Users Roast Donald Trump Jr. After His Comments About Donald Trump’s Mental Competency

Donald Trump Jr. gave many Twitter users a good laugh this week after bragging that his father, Donald Trump easily passed a “mental competency test.”

It was later proven, as many users pointed out, that the twice-impeached former president had not taken such a test, but rather one called the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (or MoCA) which is used to check for signs of cognitive impairments that could indicate dementia.

As the creator of the test, Dr. Ziad Nasreddine said to MarketWatch in 2020, “It is supposed to be easy for someone who has no cognitive impairment,” and it consists of asking the subject to do simple tasks like identifying an elephant, or remembering and reciting five words.

Twitter Users Roast Donald Trump Jr. After He Falsely Deemed The ‘Montreal Cognitive Assessment’ To Be A ‘Mental Competency Test’

This week, the billionaire’s son echoed a call from his father that presidential candidates “take a full & complete Mental Competency Test” in order to run for office. The eldest son of the ex-president wrote on his father’s Truth Social Page, “He did this himself when he was president.”

Critics on Twitter, however, were fast to note that the Apprentice alum didn’t actually take a “mental competency test,” or at least didn’t announce the results if he did. Instead, he took the Montreal Cognitive Assessment. In 2020, as many may recall, the former president revealed that he had to recall the following five words, “Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.”

He then ridiculously boasted that his doctors were stunned that he was able to recite them. "They say, ‘That’s amazing. How did you do that?’ I do it because I have, like, a good memory," he said at the time. "Because I’m cognitively there."

On February 21st, Trump Jr. bragged about his father passing what he thought was a "mental competency" test, and one user replied, "Imagine bragging that his father was able to identify an elephant in a picture, and he would have no problem doing it again."

Someone else chimed in, writing, "Nearly half of Trump's own cabinet ended up coming to the conclusion that he wasn't mentally fit to serve as president." They added, "I have yet to hear that from anyone in Biden's cabinet, or any responsible Republican. I don't think this is the winning hand that you think it is."

Another user commented, recalling some of the former president's most cringe-worthy moments, "He bragged about being able to identify a f—ng elephant & memorize five words in order, Twitchy. In the meantime, he asked about injecting disinfectants, stared directly at an eclipse, said windmills cause cancer & that there were airports during the Revolutionary war. So don’t."
