President Donald Trump announced on Thursday that he has served three terms as president and bragged about passing his cognitive exams — something he thinks all presidential or vice presidential candidates should be "forced" to do.
The boast about his mental fitness came amid a flurry of Truth Social posts in which he inaccurately referred to having served a triple term as president. Trump has only served two terms as commander-in-chief.
He also unleashed insults at former presidents Joe Biden and Barack Obama, whom he has often targeted via social media rants.
He wrote the following on his platform:
"Anybody running for President or Vice President should be forced to take a Cognitive Examination prior to entering the Race! By doing so, we wouldn’t be surprised at people like Barack 'Hussein' Obama, or Sleepy Joe Biden, getting 'ELECTED.' Our Country would be a much better place! I took the Exam three times during my ('THREE!') Terms as President, and ACED IT ALL THREE TIMES — An Achievement that, even on a single Exam, according to the Doctors, has rarely been done before! President DONALD J. TRUMP"
