Raskin asked Trump's personal doctor Sean Barbabella to test his mental acuity in response to Trump's recent words and actions - particularly those surrounding the Iran war.
"Experts have repeatedly warned that the President has been exhibiting signs consistent with dementia and cognitive decline. And, in recent days, the country has watched Trump's public statements and outbursts turn increasingly incoherent, volatile, profane, deranged, and threatening," Raskin wrote to Dr. Barbabella.
Raskin has asked that a comprehensive cognitive test be conducted before April 25 and the results released to the public. He also requested a neuropsychological assessment and any medications he is currently taking and their potential cognitive side effects.
Here's a couple of Trump's crazy quotes that spurred Raskin and the Democratic party to take immediate action:
- If Iran doesn't reopen the Strait of Hormuz a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again."
- "Tuesday will be Power Plant, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!! Open the Fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP"
For those of us who have observed Trump's mental decline since his first time in office, it's obvious he's getting worse and more violent. His profane language disgraces the office of the president. The whole world can see he's unhinged.
Raskin's request for accountability on Trump's instability is doomed to fail because the spineless MAGA morons in Congress are pretending the emperor has clothes on. That he's (somehow) sane and people love reading his racist and cruel rantings on social media platforms.
In some ways we are living in an alternate universe where one man who is clearly unhinged has so much power that he's a threat to America and the rest of the world.
Raskin also stated in the letter to Barbabella that he wants him to testify in a Congressional hearing.
That's not going to happen for a host of reasons. Foremost being a doctor patient relationship is held in the strictest secrecy according to the laws of the land.
As it Stands, I wish I could say Trump would be stopped from starting a nuclear war by clearer heads, but I'm doubtful there are any left in the chain of command.
