Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-OR), Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA), and Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) are among several of these Democrats, according to The Hill. Franken reportedly said “a few” Republican colleagues have expressed concerns to him about Trump’s mental health, and Lieu plans to introduce legislation that would require the presence of a psychiatrist or psychologist in the White House.

I listened to President Trump—sounds very sane to me—its people like Crying Shummer and Mentally Handicapped Waters and Nancy P. that looks like they could use a mental evaluation. Maybe some Freeper Psychiatrists should start to look into these folks and see if they are mentally fit—while they are aboiut it check out Gov. Moonbeam of California.

the snowballing MSM will apparently swallow anything and reguritate it back and forth between themselves to make it seem as if it is something larger than it actually is...

I have a feeling that the democrats will trot out this same charge every time a republican is elected to the presidency from here on out.

So much for that “smooth transition of power”.

The Democrat Thug Party is at war with the Country.

If they pursue this, I think it’s fine to go after folks for sedition and treason. Bring it...

Come after Trump, our legally elected President, and you’ll chew on lead.

Okay, not to get crazy here, but if that were Pence’s modus operandi, Trump base supporters are smart enough to see that and would drop support for him in the quickest, most angry of beat-downs in all of history?

"They should all be looking over their shoulders."

They are a month or so from shooting, knowing that they will lose, and die. They are looking, and panicking. They know they can't actually shoot, because then, they are dead.

How can they restore their status quo?

If we want to avoid blood, we HAVE to assure the DNC, Soros, Schumer, Obama, Clinton, that, if the shooting starts THEY will be the first to be hunted down and butchered, and their naked bodies displayed in a convenience store cooler window.
