There was a "lot missing" from President Joe Biden's routine physical, including a cognitive examination, because the current White House physician didn't want to reveal the answers those tests could have determined.
"That's his approach right now, not to ask the questions that he doesn't want the answers to," said Ronny Jackson White House doctor for Presidents Donald Trump and Barack Obama."
"They know that if they gave him a cognitive test he would have failed miserably, and then they would have had to explain that away somehow."
Dr. Kevin O'Connor, current White House physician, reported after last week's physical, the president was "healthy, vigorous, 78-year-old man fit for the duties and job of the presidency."
Cognitive testing that deals with several areas is a screening tool indicating decline for any reason, including Alzheimer's disease, dementia, Parkinson's disease, or other issues.
"Should have definitely been included in his physical exam, and was purposely left out," said Jackson. "I don't trust ... the medical team that's taking care of him now to tell us the truth anyway, but I think they purposely left this out."
"For years he's had these gaffes, but something's changed," said Jackson. "These aren't gaffes anymore. He's confused, and doesn't know where he's at or what he's doing. Beyond just normal, indications related specifically to his behavior would have dictated something should have been done."
Biden's physical did address his stiffened walking patterns that could be caused by orthopedic-related issues, but Jackson said that could also be in doubt.
"That's also a physical manifestation of some cognitive diseases that you can have as well," he said. "We don't know for sure because we didn't get any detailed stuff. Maybe they should have included an MRI of his brain and things of that nature."

Having this guy as President is so dangerous it’s utterly insane, like having someone blind drive a bus. I can’t even imagine what Russia, China, Iran are up to with this fool in office but the Rats just don’t give a damn do they, in their disgusting selfishness all they care about is power to hell with the consequences. I would not be surprised in the least if China nuked us with this jerk in office.
Does anyone expect an illegitimate government that stole an election to tell us the truth about the pedo with dementia?
Ruth B Ginsberg was also in good health... Epstein not so much...
I guess Kalamari Octopus Harris already had a run for a few hours in his stead as a dry run... Media spun it as first woman president.
According to Bush Jr, his stool samples are not “foul spirited”.
Yeah, no duh. A lot was missing - all of it damning.
Whatever is actually wrong with Joey they all know what it is.
“Helluva job there Brownie...”
I was admitted to the hospital two weeks ago, with no pulse and no repiration. They worked on me, and “brought me back”, however, I can assure you I did not leave the hospital, two days ago, with as many brain cells as I entered with.
Once I became conscious, 2 days in, I had no orientation as to where I was, nor what the date was. I had significant difficulty in verbal recall of the simplest words. When they asked me my name, I became frustrated, not knowing it, but my sense of humor kicked in, and I jokingly said “Batman” from the snickers commercials fame.
Initially, while in this initial “conscious vegetative state” I passed the cognitive tests that are used in hospitals, so I would not put too much stock in guaging Biden’s competence were Biden to pass one of these cognitive tests. Literally, I’d guess my IQ was in the 70 range. My mathematical and logic reasoning, seemed unaffected.
re: “ “We don’t know for sure because we didn’t get any detailed stuff. Maybe they should have included an MRI of his brain and things of that nature.”
Would an MRI show - abscesses or lesions of the frontal lobe, because, that’s where I’d put my money ...
I just had to remember 3 words in a sentence that I formed.
I will take the Penny off of the Table and buy your Apple with it.
Did Jackson perform cognitive exams on Trump as part of his annual physical?
WASHINGTON - Facing questions about his mental fitness to lead the nation, President Donald Trump asked the White House physician to perform a cognitive assessment of his abilities during his yearly physical conducted last week.
On Tuesday, Dr. Ronny Jackson made those results public, telling reporters that Trump notched a perfect score of 30 on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment. The physician spent roughly an hour answering reporters’ questions about Trump’s exam, many of which focused on his mental state.
....
Jackson stressed that the test is not a psychological or psychiatric exam, describing it as “a screening tool. If you do well on it, I think anything above 26 is normal. If you do — certainly, if you get a 30 out of 30, I think you can confidently assume that you’re done on the cognitive workup for now.”
