Quiet indeed...

> The President was not examined face to face, and he is not a patient of any member of our group. Rendering a formal diagnosis in this case is not our role. We have closely followed his behavior and his statements over the past year.

> It is our professional opinion that the behaviors of Donald Trump, tragically, are neither momentary lapses nor political theater. It is our professional opinion that they reflect a rapidly worsening, reality-untethered, increasingly dangerous decline.

> However, it is unethical for a psychiatrist to offer a professional opinion unless he or she has conducted an examination and has been granted proper authorization for such a statement.

However, there is an interesting question on how presidential physical and mental fitness is evaluated. Does anyone have insight into what rules and regulations govern this and do they have any (preferably supreme court validated) backing?

It brings to mind the parable of the drowning man or "what do you want from me, I sent you two boats and a helicopter".

Whoopty do.

We don't know if anyone will actually stop it if Trump ever gives a catastrophic military order. Odds are against it, since none of the illegal orders so far have been resisted effectively.

Various doctors have done this since 2017: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_and_health_concerns_about_...

> Mr. OGLES. Madam Speaker, tonight the American people will tune in to watch a rigged debate with leftist hosts pretending to moderate.

> Biden's sham of a judicial witch hunt is as obvious to the American people as the amount of stimulants that Biden takes before his public appearances.

> Incoherent mutterings, lack of physical awareness, and wandering off demonstrate his cognitive decline. Ahead of tonight's debate, I have no doubt his puppet masters will once again be administering a concoction of drugs to keep him awake.

> President Trump volunteered to take a drug test. White House handlers, however, won't let Biden take a cognitive test because they know he will fail.

> I agree with President Trump. The American people deserve transparency, which is why I introduced the No Juicing Joe Act, which would require the White House to notify Congress and the American people when Biden takes anything for cognitive decline.

> America is the leader of the free world. We need a Commander in Chief who is capable of articulating a coherent sentence, aware of his surroundings, and can lead with strength, a President like Donald Trump.

If it were, we would expect something more from https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-resolutio...

> Establishing the Select Committee on President Biden’s Cognitive Decline.

> Whereas overwhelming evidence shows President Biden and his staff covered up the extent of his cognitive decline;

> Whereas additional information has come to light following his departure from the White House showing the full extent of his cognitive infirmaries;

> Whereas the 25th Amendment establishes a process whereby the President or the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or such other body as Congress may by law provide may report to Congress that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of the office;

> Whereas the American people deserve to have a President who is engaged and understands the nature and consequences of his actions; and

> Whereas Congress has an institutional interest in understanding whether the President is capable of discharging these powers and duties: Now, therefore, be it

> Resolved,

> SECTION 1. Establishment.

> There is hereby established in the House of Representatives a Select Committee on President Biden’s Cognitive Decline (hereafter in this resolution referred to as the “Select Committee”).
