President Biden has an unannounced physical exam at Walter Reed Medical Center this week — but multiple reports say Biden declined to have a cognitive exam during his appointment.
The 81-year-old POTUS’ physical and mental health have become a hot-button issue for voters heading into the 2024 presidential election.
Trump posted the following on TRUTH Social:
Crooked Joe Biden must take a Cognitive Test. Maybe that way we would be able to find out why he makes such terrible decisions. I took two of them, and ACED them both (no mistakes!). All Presidents, or people wanting to become President, should mandatorily take this test!
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre defended Biden’s declinine to get his brain checked.
“If you look at what a clinical cognitive test is – actually what it does – it is a 15-minute appointment that is administered by someone who, most of the time, people don’t actually know,” Jean-Pierre said.
Jean-Pierre also said Biden’s doctor felt it was unnecessary and added that “folks need to understand that the president passes a cognitive test every day.”
“You think about the job growth, you think about the record small business action, you think about the bloom in that particular space of 16 million more small businesses have been created. You think about delivering historic investment that has been done by a president who has to deal with these issues every day, again, on a granular level and so his doctor, including the neurologist, do not believe that he needs one,” Jean-Pierre said.
