Trump has been bragging about the results of his cognitive tests again, despite the fact they're not actually meant to be difficult.
In the clip above, Jimmy Kimmel breaks down a long Truth Social post in which the president boasts about acing four of these tests, something no other president has apparently done.
"That's right: No president, in the history of this country, has ever had to have his brain examined this many times in a row," says Kimmel. "Congratulations. I mean what a thing to brag about. This is like bragging about passing a breathalyser test. It doesn't mean you did great, all it means is they're not gonna lock you up, okay? What you should be worried about is the fact that your behaviour is so erratic they keep asking you to take these tests."
