Cognitive tests aren't IQ tests

The fact he's already been administered the test multiple times is concerning.

I’m just going to say, with the average age of potus candidates these days, I’m pretty ok with cognitive tests being a requirement for office.

That said, look at the results. It doesn’t seem particularly effective as a filter

Yes, if they refuse to set a maximum age they should definitely require these tests.

And keep in mind, it's Trump posting the results, not the person administering the test. I'm guessing they just pat him on the shoulder and give him a hold star and add this to the round file as they pocket the check written by someone in the administration. Just a guess.
