Speaking to Fox News, Donald Trump’s former doctor Ronny Jackson said it was vital that President Joe Biden gets a cognitive test to prove he is up to the job. Following numerous “gaffes” and verbal slip-ups since becoming president, Mr Jackson said he wants President Biden to get tested, just like Donald Trump, who agreed to take the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) to check for cognitive impairment a year into his presidency.  His comments come as 13 other Republican lawmakers are also calling on Biden to take such a test and release the results.

Dr Jackson said: “Biden is demonstrating every single day that there is something going on…

“You don’t need to be a physician to look at this behaviour and see there’s something concerning happening.”

He added: “The far left and the mainstream media were demanding that be the new standard for anybody who’s going to lead our country and be our Commander-in-Chief and our head of state.

“I’m just saying I agree with them at this point — we need to get it done.”

He went on to point out how President Biden has “always made gaffes” but stressed that recent slip-ups are “different”.

President Biden is known to have struggled with a stutter since childhood, an issue he admitted still causes him problems when “really tired.”

Dr Jackson said: “He’s confused, he’s disoriented.

“We all know people who are 100-years old, who basically are as sharp as a tack, and we know people who are in their mid-60’s that are having some cognitive difficulties.

“And I think he’s on that end of the spectrum. He’s just not aging gracefully at this point.”

The former White House physician pleaded: “I’m just asking them, when you do the physical exam include the cognitive assessment.

“As far as I’m concerned the standard precedent has been set and they need to follow and do the same.”

President Biden submitted himself to testing in the early stages of the presidential campaign and doctors found him to be “healthy, vigorous”.

Dr Jackson later took to Twitter, he hammered: “When I was President Trump’s White House physician, the media ATTACKED him because they falsely claimed the cognitive exam he ACED was “Too easy”.

“Well, if it’s SO EASY like the media said, why won’t Biden take the same test and release to results? Cognitively impaired!”

It is not the first time Ronny Jackson has urged Biden to get tested.

Last month he slammed the president saying: “We can’t sit on this any longer. He’s not physically or cognitively fit to be our president right now.”

Recent gaffes from President Biden include verbal slurs at press conferences, forgetting what he is saying during speeches, and tripping up three times as he ran up the stairs to Air Force One.

At 78-years old Mr Biden became the oldest US President to be elected in history.
