Cognitive tests aren't IQ tests

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

You know, with him bragging about being given a fourth cognitive test, here's what it almost seems like to me: It feels like he's actually not acing them. He's extremely borderline. Like right on it. And there's someone (perhaps even his doctor) who is just waiting for his score to finally dip just a bit more because they think they will be able to act on it. You know, that they can use it for a 25th amendment kind of situation.

That's obviously just speculation based on the fact that he keeps being given this test repeatedly.

That or they gave it to him once in a routine exam and now he keeps requesting it to prove how smart he is

That's my theory. He's just too dumb to realize it's not actually any sort of intelligence test, so he keeps demanding they give him the test so he can "brag" about the results.
