Trump’s off-the-cuff disclosure that he underwent an MRI scan is raising fresh questions about the secrecy surrounding Trump’s health and the need for presidents to be more transparent.

Trump is the oldest person to be elected president, and his aides and allies have long projected him as the picture of strength and vitality.

Outside physicians initially raised questions after Trump visited Walter Reed Military Medical Center earlier this month for what the White House described as a routine follow-up visit, though it was his second visit in six months.

    You’ve obviously not done a full round of cognitive testing.

    Correct. You know why? Because unlike the POTUS, I don’t need to: nobody has any doubt about my mental faculties.

    Many people are surprised at how poorly they do the first time.

    I suspect part of the test is remembering the first time, and doing better the second time 🙂
