Never mind that he can barely navigate a slight inclined path or play nine holes without his golf cart. And that&#8217;s not even addressing his obvious and long-standing cognitive deficiencies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=65941\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Destroys His Own Claim that Russia Wouldn\u2019t Have Invaded Ukraine if He Were President<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On Friday&#8217;s episode of <em>&#8220;The Five&#8221;<\/em> on Fox News, co-host Jesse Watters demonstrated why he is widely known as the dumbest man on television. In a segment about Trump&#8217;s physical exam, Watters replied to his Fox colleague, Brian Kilmeade, with his hallmark derpitude&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Kilmeade:<\/strong> Do you think that Trump will grade high in his physical judging from what you can see?<br \/>\n<strong>Watters:<\/strong> Healthy as an ox. 6&#8242; 6&#8243;, 195, the stamina of an Olympic athlete. We&#8217;re gonna get probably a vague statement, and that&#8217;s fine. I don&#8217;t want to know his health. I think he&#8217;s fine. I don&#8217;t need to know what pills he is taking or not taking.

Generally they will want full transparency and all the info that they can get their hands on. But Watters says that he&#8217;s <em>&#8220;fine&#8221;<\/em> with knowing nothing, or maybe just a <em>&#8220;vague statement&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Why would Watters be so easily comforted with crumbs of data about Trump when he has regularly demanded so much more about Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, or any other Democratic politician? Apparently because he can tell by just looking at him that Trump is in peak physical condition. Consequently, if he actually has any acute medical problems, including brain functionality, that are not visible to his layman&#8217;s eyes, Watters couldn&#8217;t care less. Trump could be on high doses of psychoactive pharmaceuticals and Watters doesn&#8217;t even want to know.<\/p>\n<p>For his part, Trump spoke to a reporter after his exam and told him that he <em>&#8220;got every answer right,&#8221;<\/em> on a cognitive test. This is a reprise of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=52644\" target=\"_blank\">his infamous account of his supposed mental acuity<\/a><\/strong> because he was able to recite <em>&#8220;person, woman, man, camera, tv&#8221;<\/em> in a test that was not measuring IQ, but was a simple test given to people who were being evaluated for early signs of dementia. Then Trump went on to claim, contrary to observable evidence, that <em>&#8220;I\u2019m in very good shape. Good heart. Good soul. Very good soul.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Good soul&#8221;<\/em>? Trump seems to believe that his annual physical includes a doctor&#8217;s examination of his spiritual essence. And that he got a divine endorsement despite <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=42527\" target=\"_blank\">his lifelong rejection of faith<\/a><\/strong>, his multiple failed marriages, pathological lying, boundless greed, deliberate mismanagement of a pandemic that killed more than a million Americans, separation and incarceration of migrant children, abandonment of Ukrainian allies, incitement of a deadly insurrection, and many more acts of blatant evil that are too numerous to enumerate.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bluesky-embed\" data-bluesky-uri=\"at:\/\/did:plc:fviqe3xscfdntuwbuzppqetg\/app.bsky.feed.post\/3lmmc6rnn2s2u\" data-bluesky-cid=\"bafyreigcniekluwi5e66dulsls4fruotv7wdla6hnaqajrmrg7u6etewq4\">\n<p lang=\"en\">WTF?
