“Late Show” host Stephen Colbert spotted an unusual message from President Donald Trump earlier this week.
During his travels in Asia, the president posted two disconcerting words on his Truth Social website that he later deleted:

Social Truth
“Uh-oh!” Colbert said as he read the message. “I see a cognitive and, as far as his brain is concerned, things are clearly going wrong.”
Colbert pronounced every “d.”
He said Trump might have been trying to spell “South Korea.”
“But you can never go wrong, so get ready for new world maps with South Carerddddd, North Carerddddd, The Fallopians and of course Japanaramadingdong.”
During his trip to Asia, Trump boasted about his cognitive health and claimed that he scored excellently on a test that he incorrectly said was also an “aptitude” test.
According to her description, she actually took the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, or the infamous “person, woman, man, camera, television” test she took in 2020, which is designed to detect signs of cognitive decline and dementia.
