Rep. Madeleine "Next Tuesday" Dean (D-Pa.) on Wednesday confronted House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), urging the GOP leader to address comments made by the president during his address to generals in Quantico, Va.

“The president is unhinged. He is unwell,” Dean told Johnson in front of a crowd and cameras.

Johnson fired back by telling her, “A lot of folks on your side are, too.”

Dean then pointed to President Trump’s remarks from the day prior, when he suggested Democratic-led cities be used as “training grounds” for the military.

He and Hegseth also told service members that the days of “politically correct” policies within the armed forces would be brought to an end.

Dean described Trump’s comments as a “performance” in front of generals and admirals, while Johnson said he “didn’t see it.”

However, the Pennsylvania representative warned that diplomatic relations could be impacted by the president’s remarks.

Not sure I like Johnson’s answer. It implies that he agrees that the President is unhinged but comments that people on the Dems side are as well. Not sure that’s what he meant but......

If “unhinged” is the same as “the filter is gone”, they are right. He has nothing to lose. He can say anything he wants. The Democrats are the ones getting people shot by calling them “Nazis”.

Keep in mind, they tried to kill him and put him in prison. That’s much worse.

““The president is unhinged. He is unwell,” Dean told Johnson in front of a crowd and cameras.” Cool. Hard tellin’ what he might do. Might keep you up nights, Dean.

Probably unintentional. He was trying to point out the antics by the Democratic Party.

Sounds like ditzy Madelaine has gone full View Dumpster Fire. Magua Goldbert and her hogs must have gotten to her.

Scary but true. They’ve convinced themselves Trump is the most evil human ever born.

The idea of paying $1 trillion/year to be ready to fight a war that hopefully never will come is absurd.

This idea is absurd, as is training costing a trillion. The entire military budget for 2025 is less that $850 mill.

I you don't train hard, you will never be ready. The more realistic the better.

I’m sure to them anyone who doesn’t steal as much taxpayer$ as possible for themselves is unhinged since that’s normal behavior in DC.
