President Donald Trump attacked CBS reporter Weijia Jiang at a rally on Air Force One on Sunday, as the reporter pressed the president to tell him which body part he had an MRI on.

“I have no idea. It was just an MRI. What part of the body? It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and I passed it,” the president said, pointing to the reporter. “I got a perfect score, which you wouldn’t be able to do.”

He said goodbye to the press before pointing to another reporter and adding: “You too.”

CBS did not immediately return a request for comment.

The president told reporters he would release the results of the October MRI at the meeting.

“If they want to release it, I can do that,” Trump said. “It’s perfect.”

The White House issued a memo on October 10, from White House physician Sean Barbabella, stating that Trump had undergone advanced imaging as part of a scheduled follow-up evaluation at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

Barbabella said the assessment was part of the president’s ongoing health maintenance plan and included laboratory tests and preventative health assessments.

“The extensive laboratory studies performed as part of the visit were exceptional, including stable metabolic, hematologic, and cardiac parameters,” the memo reads in part.

The president has had a series of fiery exchanges with female journalists in recent weeks, fueling accusations of bullying and misogyny from his critics, while the White House has defended his transparency.

While answering questions from reporters at Mar-a-Lago on Thursday, Trump was pressed by CBS News White House correspondent Nancy Cordes about the investigation into Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the suspected shooter in Wednesday’s shooting of two National Guard members in Washington, D.C. Sarah Beckstrom, 20, died, and another victim, Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, 24, remains in critical condition.

“Your DOJ IG just reported this year that DHS and FBI did extensive screening of these Afghans brought into the United States, so why are you blaming the Biden administration?” asked Cordes later.

“Because they let him in. Are you stupid? Are you a stupid person?” Trump fired back. “Because they flew in with thousands of other people who shouldn’t be here. And you’re just asking questions because you’re a stupid person.”
