[Flashback 2017] House Dem introduces measure urging Trump undergo mental exam
The Hill ^ | August 18, 2017 | by Cristina Marcos

Posted on 01/30/2021 5:49:41 AM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

A House Democrat introduced a resolution on Friday suggesting that President Trump undergo a physical and mental health exam to help determine whether he is fit for office.

Rep. Zoe Lofgren’s (D-Calif.) resolution specifically calls on Vice President Pence and Trump’s Cabinet members to “quickly secure the services of medical and psychiatric professionals” to “assist in their deliberations” invoking the 25th Amendment, which outlines presidential removal procedures.

It posits that such an examination by doctors would “determine whether the president suffers from mental disorder or other injury that impairs his abilities and prevents him from discharging his Constitutional duties.”

Her resolution states: “President Donald J. Trump has exhibited an alarming pattern of behavior and speech causing concern that a mental disorder may have rendered him unfit and unable to fulfill his Constitutional duties.”

Lofgren’s office raised the following questions in a press release: “Does the President suffer from early stage dementia? Has the stress of office aggravated a mental illness crippling impulse control? Has emotional disorder so impaired the President that he is unable to discharge his duties? Is the President mentally and emotionally stable?”

Lofgren joins a relatively small group of Democrats in Congress who have openly questioned Trump’s mental health.

This resolution was introduced in 2017 but if she changes the name of the President to biden, I agree with her proposal.

Zoey Lofgrin...CA. who is no longer in office?

a PHYSICAL? MENTAL exam? She is kidding, right?

When will Joey Biden release his Medical info...DJT has proven he is stable and alert with four years of great leadership...Joey has proved 50 years in Washington, D.C. leaves one “LOST IN THE WOODS” WITH NO IDEA WHAT HE IS DOING..

As for Zoe, she is aged and lost also, and p.s. she needs to find a decent hairdresser...
