A New Bill Would Require Donald Trump To Undergo Mental Health Evaluation


Source: Huffington Post


Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.) isn't a psychiatrist, but she wants to make the president see one.

A new bill introduced in the House of Representatives would require President Donald Trump to undergo a physical and mental health exam to determine if he is stable enough to stay in office.

Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.) introduced the bill on Friday. Should the results of the said exam be unfavorable, the bill calls for Vice President Mike Pence and members of the Cabinet to remove Trump from office.

The move would invoke the 25th Amendment, a rarely-used constitutional provision that allows the vice president and a majority of Cabinet members to jointly remove the president from office and replace him with the vice president.

"Does the President suffer from early stage dementia," Lofgren asked in a statement announcing the bill.

The stupid tub of guts Lofgren ought to turn her attention to her buddy Stretch Pelosi.  Botox abuse has damaged Pelosi's brain.

Democrat party thought leader:  The constitution does not say that a person can yell wolf in a crowded theater.

It's official, the constitutional scholar torch has been passed from Obama to Pelosi.

Unfit for office.

We will make America strong again. We will make America proud again. We will make America safe again. And we will make America great again.

A completely meaningless gesture.  Destined to die in committee, so issues like getting it docketed, having a Senate counterpart, or even an ultimate veto aren't even going to come up.

Before introducing this bill, Rep. Zoe Lofgren needs a thorough anal probe to make sure her brain is in place. :-)

It is going to die because you can't have legislation targeted at an individual (there shall be no bill of attainder) and the only changes you can make to the Presidency and its occupant must be made by Amendment.

Now would be a perfect time to make sure something like Obama never happens again. Pass a law requiring proof of constitutional qualifications to be president.   :fuelfire:

Please, democrats, please run with this.  Let this commiefornia lunatic run more of you off the cliff.
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

I would like to introduce a bill that required the House minority leader to be able to correctly identify the POTUS in less than 6 months after inauguration date.

I would like to introduce a bill that all elected officials follow all laws that American citizens are subject to, that carries a penalty of impeachment, in addition to whatever criminal/civil penalty the other law has, for failure to do so.

My law is more likely to pass...
