At the next possible opportunity, a journalist should ask him what the answers to those invented "advanced" questions are.

I mean, I know they won't, but they should.

This is a Chris Christie joke.

So Trump identified Christie? How much coaching was required and how many tries did Trump get?

Damn, that settles all of my fears.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Donald Trump, who has a penchant for crowing about hoarding classified documents and the crowd size on Jan. 6, 2021, boasted about acing a basic cognitive test in his continued efforts to prove his self-proclaimed title of an “extremely stable genius.”

During a campaign stop in New Hampshire Wednesday night, the former president touted his ability to correctly identify animals of different shapes.

Spawning countless memes, the former president touted back in 2020 how well he had done on a 10-minute assessment designed to detect mild cognitive impairment (such as early-onset dementia) during an interview with Fox News.

As Trump supporters stood in the cold waiting for the ex-president to take the stage on Wednesday, the scene echoed his visit to the state just a day before in southern New Hampshire where fans waited in the snow for the presumptive Republican nominee.

Trump, who has achieved the feat of being the only (four-time) indicted former or current president, was charged for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election, which his own officials at the time claimed was the most secure in U.S. history.

As the former president prepared for legal proceedings in ongoing cases against him, Trump swooped a historic win in Iowa on Monday with 51 percent of the caucus vote, defeating former U.N.
