The Wall Street Journal recently published a poll that shows nearly half of American voters think Donald Trump is mentally unfit to return to the presidency.
That poll apparently caught Trump’s attention. On Tuesday, the former president took to Truth Social to lambast the Wall Street Journal and challenge its “heads,” along with President Joe Biden and the Murdoch family of Fox News, to a test of mental acuity and physical fitness.
“In a phony and probably rigged Wall Street Journal poll, coming out of nowhere to softened [sic] the mental incompetence blow that is so obvious with Crooked Joe Biden, they ask about my age and mentality,” Trump wrote.
“Where did that come from? A few years ago I was the only one to agree to a mental acuity test, & ACED IT,” he continued before challenging “Ruper Murdoch & Sons, Biden, [and] WSJ heads” to acuity tests.
Trump also wants to test their physical prowess, going as far as to post a highlight reel of him playing various sports throughout his life.
“I will name the place and the test, and it will be a tough one,” Trump wrote. “Nobody will come even close to me! We can also throw some physical activity into it. I just won the Senior Club Championship at a big golf club, with many very good players. To do so you need strength, accuracy, touch and, above all, mental toughness.”
The world was quick to react to the shocking challenge:
