Okay, so this post about his health is twice as long as the Gettysburg address. That's not okay. And it starts with a bang. There has never been a president that has worked as hard as me. My hours are the longest and my results are among the best. Then he boasted that he's been given not one, but three cognitive exams, as if that's a good thing. That means... let me tell you what that means. That means he passed the first two and they're like, this can't be right. It's giving one more. And of course, Trump once again, clinky ace, all three of those tests, something few people can do. These tests, this is not the SAT test he's taking. This is a one page exam that checks to know if you know the difference between a camel and a goat, okay?
