Raskin Urges Cognitive Test for Trump Amid Heightened Rhetoric on Iran Conflict
Rep. Jamie Raskin is calling for a cognitive test for President Donald Trump amid his recent comments on the US war with Iran, as Democrats question the president's fitness. The call comes amidst heightened tensions between the two countries.
Rep. Jamie Raskin is calling on President Donald Trump's White House physician to conduct a cognitive test due to his recent heightened rhetoric about the US war with Iran, as Democrats question the president's fitness for office. The request comes after Trump made comments suggesting he was 'not a fan' of military action against Iran. Raskin and other Democrats are expressing concerns about Trump's mental acuity following a similar incident in 2018 when he tweeted about the nuclear button being 'very, very sensitive'. The cognitive test would be the first step to assess Trump's fitness for office.
