He looked like he was having to concentrate very hard all the time to string a sentence
00:05
together and even the clip you played where he got the word neurologist right eventually,
00:10
he was searching for the word and you could see that. In other words, sometimes it's not
00:14
what you say but it's the way you say it that would make people a bit worried about cognitive
00:20
decline. He looked like he had to concentrate really hard to say some basic things and also
00:26
he was very hoarse and he coughed quite a lot and that could have been a nervous cough,
00:30
it's not clear, but the fact that often he would careen down a sentence, pause like he was not
00:37
thinking very hard about where to go next and then veer off in a strange direction. So it's
00:42
not just the content which is obviously easy to report when someone gets a word wrong but
00:47
there's something more subtle but also quite worrying going on about the way people speak
00:52
and he just didn't fill you with confidence. Now the other thing I have to say is even if
00:56
he passed a cognitive test, which he's claiming he's done right, the bar is very low to pass the
01:04
bar that you're not demented. We require the President of the United States to not just be
01:09
not demented, we're requiring him to perform at a very high level and what we were seeing was even
01:15
if the performance was one of someone who's trying hard to dispel the idea I'm not demented,
01:21
was it a performance that would dazzle you because that's what we need, don't we? I mean
01:26
are we looking for someone who's not just passing an IQ test at the very low bar that gets you past
01:32
the IQ test but are we looking for someone who's going to dazzle us?
