Harris agrees to take a cognitive test after Trump questions her IQ – Washington Examiner

In a recent statement, Vice President ​Kamala Harris has publicly challenged former President Donald Trump to take⁤ a cognitive test, promising that she⁣ would do the ⁢same to demonstrate her fitness for office.‍ Throughout her campaign for the 2024​ election, Harris, 60, has intensified ⁤her criticisms of Trump’s age and mental capacity, labeling him as a “fascist” and‍ increasingly “unhinged.” During an interview⁣ with ⁢CBS News, she emphasized the importance of ‌listening to individuals who have previously worked with‌ Trump, including ⁢his former chiefs ⁣of staff and military officials, who have questioned his suitability for presidency. Trump, now 78, has retaliated by suggesting Harris has a low IQ, an assertion she dismissed with humor.


Harris challenges Trump to take cognitive test and vows to do the same

Vice President Kamala Harris said she would take a cognitive test to prove she is fit for office and challenged former President Donald Trump to do the same.

Throughout her 2024 campaign, Harris, 60, has escalated attacks on Trump’s age and mental fitness for office. Earlier this month, she began openly referring to the former president as a “fascist” and calls him increasingly “unhinged.”

“Don’t take it from me, listen to the people who know him best,” Harris said during an interview Sunday with CBS News’s Norah O’Donnell in which she responded “sure” when asked about taking a test. “His former chiefs of staff. Most recently, four-star Marine Gen. John Kelly. Listen to two former secretaries of defense who worked for him, listen to his national security adviser, listen to his vice president, who have all, in one way or another, said he is unfit to be president again, should never be president again, and is dangerous.”

Trump, 78, himself has frequently claimed that Harris has a low IQ, accusations that the vice president laughed off in her interview with CBS when asked directly.

“This is what he has resorted to, and I think he actually is increasingly unstable and unhinged and has resorted to name-calling because he actually has no plan for the American people,” she responded.

With just over one week until Election Day on Nov. 5, most polls show Harris holding a slight advantage over Trump nationally, but the pair remain tied in the seven battleground states that will likely decide the election.

“It’s a presidential race, and it should be close,” Harris told CBS. “In all honesty, I’m seeing a lot of enthusiasm around our campaign.”

HARRIS TRANSITION WON’T BE A ‘PIECE OF CAKE’ DESPITE INCUMBENCY

The vice president will deliver a campaign speech Tuesday on the Ellipse in Washington, the same venue where Trump delivered his Jan. 6, 2021, speech that preceded the Capitol riot.

Harris will also campaign in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania this week, according to campaign officials.
