The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making Part Deux (Part 1)

Not his fault. I guess he can’t be fired, then.

If he’s fired, then he’s fired. He can appeal to the MSPB to overturn his firing. Which will never happen. So he’ll just stay fired.

Too bad we can’t fire POTUS instead of impeach him. Just to be plain, I’m not talking about not renewing his contract come November.

And of course, the doctors were “very surprised” by his “unbelievable” results.

Which proves he failed it, in a way. The test only determines if you have any cognitive disfunction, not how smart you are.

Is it normal for the President to be subjected to cognition tests?

Only if there’s suspicion that he’s brain dead.

I would not brag about “acing” a MOCA.

Well, I mean, unless I drew the best clock ever, a perfect clock.

Yes. My grad students are astounded that the MoCA or Mini-Mental State Exam can be “bad,” but at that point in their training they haven’t seen someone with dementia or head trauma.

I think Individual 1 is afraid to fire Fauci because he would write a book.

Sarah Cooper is fantastic.

Acing? As in our Evil Orange Overlord got a 1. He’s Number 1 Right?

The doctor came up to me, big strong guy, right out of central casting, he had tears in his eyes, and he said, “sir, that’s the most perfectly drawn clock I’ve ever seen. And the way you were able to name those zoo animals…just unbelievable.”.

Fauci did what he could for as long as he could - what more can you ask of someone?

It was inevitable that Fauci was going to be sidelined then, as you put it, “shit-canned” for speaking the truth. Trump always needs a fall guy.

Standing next to the Doofus-in-Chief gave Fauci a stage he would not otherwise have had and made him a household name. While a lot of Trump’s base is going to follow Trump off a cliff like a herd of lemmings there are lots of other people who now know about Fauci and will continue to follow his advice in another forum.

Yeah, I’m an optimist. It’s what keeps me getting up and going to work in the morning.

Actually, the 63 million dumbasses didn’t know what a Drumpfster fire they were electing. I think a better way of stating this sentiment is “If the current occupant doesn’t respect the office, why should they?”

That’s almost exactly what I was going to post :smile:

Trump also recently had “a friend” tell him he was the most innocent person in the history of the united states (true story…can’t believe there was hardly any mention of this on the news but where do you start with fuckdumb trump statements?).

So in Trump’s telling, his doctor might also add “Trump is the most covid negative person in the world. He has the best least amount of covid, in numbers no-one has ever seen. China virus.”

I believe Dr. Fauci was trying to serve the public, not the president or the office. He provided us with valuable information, and contradicted Trump many times at the peril of his own job. He did this even when Trump supporters were threatening his life.

Individual 1’s rally in New Hampshire has been postponed due to bad weather.

I’m sure there’s no possibility that it could be due to few people asking for seats.

“Even the weather is against me! Obama never had the weather against him!”

Oh, I can absolutely believe that the doctors were “very surprised”. They were probably quite sure that he would not be able to identify common animals or remember three numbers in a row.

To be clear, if you “fail” this test, then it means that you are not competent to look after your own basic life affairs, and the court may appoint a guardian to look after you. It is the lowest possible standard to apply. This means that Trump may not be legally ordered into a care home.
