With only 16 days left for the US Presidential election polling day, tensions are rising between leading candidates Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. Both exchange personal attacks, attempting to overpower the other in the campaign’s final stretch.
In a rally in Lancaster, former President Trump reignited a controversial debate by proposing mandatory cognitive tests for all presidential candidates, regardless of age. He exclaimed that Kamala Harris’ cognitive abilities should be questioned while emphasizing his own mental fitness.
“I have no cognitive problem – she may have one,” Trump declared. “I call for a cognitive test for all people wanting to run for president. Not based on age. I’m not 80, and I’m not that close to 80. In the Biden case, he’s 81 or 82 and, you know, that’s okay. We’ve had some of the greatest leaders in world history that are in their 80s. I’ve done cognitive tests twice and I aced both of them,” he added, the BBC reports.
Meanwhile, Kamala Harris reportedly said she’ll do everything she can to combat any misinformation put out by her opponents, adding that there are “all sorts of people who are going to throw a bunch of things out that will include mis and disinformation, with the intention to dissuade certain people from voting.”
