It looks like Donald Trump is up to his usual tricks—dodging real issues and throwing insults. Recently, instead of addressing concerns about his own health, Trump decided to attack Vice President Kamala Harris. Why? Because she shared her health records and asked him to do the same. Simple enough, right? But Trump being Trump, he turned it into a personal attack on Harris’ mental abilities.
In a message on X (formerly Twitter), Trump wrote, “I believe it is very important that Kamala Harris pass a test on Cognitive Stamina and Agility. Her actions have led many to believe that there could be something very wrong with her.” He went on to accuse CBS of changing one of her answers during an interview. This is classic Trump—deflect, insult, and avoid answering any real questions.

Let’s take a step back. Kamala Harris released her own health records to be completely transparent. She’s 59, in excellent health, and ready to take on the duties of the presidency if needed. Her doctors confirmed that she has the “physical and mental stamina necessary.” In other words, she’s fit for the job. But what about Trump? He didn’t release any health records. Instead, he threw out his typical insults, saying Harris was “slow,” “lazy,” and even “dumb as a rock.”
Kamala Harris had made it clear when she said, “It’s obvious Trump and his team don’t want the American people to see his real health status. They’re hiding something.” It’s no wonder Harris challenged Trump to show his own health records. She did it, so why can’t he? Instead, he chooses to attack and distract.

Trump has a long history of attacking Kamala Harris. He’s called her “crazy” and even “mentally disabled” in the past, which shocked some people in his own party. But let’s be honest—Harris isn’t the one who should be worried about taking a test.
Trump’s tactics of throwing insults instead of dealing with real issues are getting old. Instead of answering questions about whether he’s fit to be president, he just keeps attacking others and avoiding the truth. It’s the same routine over and over again, and it’s clearly not working anymore. If Trump wants people to take him seriously, shouldn’t he stop with the name-calling and give some real answers? How long can he keep this up without facing the facts?
