Just about guaranteed, that's why he can't quit talking about it, it was HARD for him. For anyone else, who didn't actually have any form of dementia, so easy!

calling it hard and saying that "you couldn't pass it" is donnie's way of puffing himself up, of trying to imply that the test proves he's the greatest, supergenius, whatever.
if he passed it, it would have been a non-event and no one would have cared to mention it.

got the real story.
Trump couldn't pass a Wasserman test.

(52,438 posts)8. right. there's no way he got that part right without significant prompting
if not outright cheating.
my guess is "the hard part" means "the part i got wrong".
