Congressman Joins Mental Health Group To Push For Trump’s Impeachment
Representative Jamie Raskin, a Democrat from Maryland, is scheduled to speak at a town hall organized by Duty to Warn.
This organization consists of mental health professionals, who are calling for Trump’s removal from office – they think he is not psychologically fit.
Mental health professionals “believe they have a duty to warn the public about the dangers posed by Donald Trump’s mental health.”
At the town hall, Raskin is expected to discuss legislation he introduced earlier this year to establish an Oversight Commission on Presidential Capacity.
This would determine if the president is incapacitated. His bill currently has 31 co-sponsors, which are all Democrats.
Duty to Warn plans to host town halls across the nation on October 14, including one in Washington, D.C., where Raskin will be speaking.
Raskin is among a handful of liberal Democratic lawmakers who have openly questioned Trump’s mental health.
Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren’s office issued a press release last month asking, “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?” it adds.
