House Democrats File Bill to Form 25th Amendment Commission to Assess Trump’s Mental Fitness

Rep. Jamie Raskin and 50 House Democrats have sponsored a bill to form a commission to assess President Trump's mental fitness for office, citing concerns about his recent behavior.
Fifty House Democrats led by Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) have sponsored a bill that would form a commission to assess President Donald Trump’s mental fitness for office, pursuant to the 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
Earlier this month, Raskin sent a letter formally requesting Capt. Sean P. Barbabella, physician to the president, to “conduct a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment” of Trump and send the results to Congress. In the letter, Raskin mentioned multiple examples of recent “incoherent, volatile, profane, deranged, and threatening” comments by Trump that he argued exhibited what experts said were “signs consistent with dementia and cognitive decline.”
Among the incidents Raskin cited were recent Truth Social posts that made alarming threats about Iran and the White House Easter Egg Roll, during which he talked about the war in front of the children.
Axios Congress reporter Andrew Solender reported on Raskin’s bill Tuesday, pointing out the obvious fact that it was a “long shot” because Republicans still have the majority control of both the House and Senate “and Trump could simply veto it.”

The text of the 10-page bill spells out how a commission, as authorized by the 25th Amendment, would be created from a bipartisan group of appointees. As Solender reported:
The details: The body would have two members each appointed by the Senate Majority and Minority Leaders, the House Speaker and the House Minority Leader.
It would include four former “high-ranking executive branch officials” — specifically vice presidents, secretaries of state, defense and treasury, attorneys general and surgeons general — appointed by Democrats and another four appointed by Republicans.
Those 16 commissioners would then vote to appoint another person — either another high-ranking former official or a physician — to serve as chair.
This commission would “carry out a medical examination of the President to determine whether the President is mentally or physically unable to discharge the powers and duties of the office,” the text of the bill says.
Raskin issued a statement highlighting the constitutional authority behind the bill.
“The Constitution explicitly vests Congress with the authority to create a body that will guarantee the successful continuity of government by responding to presidential incapacity to discharge the powers and duties of office,” he said. “We have a solemn duty to play our defined role under the 25th Amendment by setting up this body to act alongside the Vice President and the Cabinet.”
“Public trust in Donald Trump’s ability to meet the duties of his office has dropped to unprecedented lows as he threatens to destroy entire civilizations,” Raskin added.
The White House fired back with a similar retort as it had for Raskin’s original letter to the White House physician.
“Lightweight Jamie Raskin is a stupid person’s idea of a smart person,” said White House spokesperson Davis Ingle. “President Trump’s sharpness, unmatched energy, and historic accessibility stand in stark contrast to what we saw during the past four years when Democrats like Raskin intentionally covered up Joe Biden’s serious mental and physical decline from the American people.”
Solender’s report concluded by emphasizing the “[r]eality check” that “[e]ven in the unlikely event the bill passed, removing Trump would still be a long shot,” because “Vice President [JD] Vance — a Trump loyalist — would have to sign off on the commission’s findings and remove the president temporarily.”
If that did happen, Congress would then be able to vote after 21 days had passed to make Trump’s temporary removal a permanent one if at least two-thirds majorities in both the House and Senate voted in support.

Ex-Trump Official Says President 'Should Be Removed Immediately'

Ex-Trump Official Says President 'Should Be Removed Immediately'
A former Trump official reacted to the president’s strange excuse for posting a meme that depicted him as Jesus by calling for his immediate removal from office.
On Sunday, Donald Trump posted the AI-generated image showing him as a Christ-like figure, and, after lots of criticism, including some people who suggested he just might be the Antichrist, dubiously claimed he thought the image “was me as a doctor.”
Many people were skeptical of Trump’s frankly lame excuse for posting the meme, including former White House press secretary Anthony Scaramucci, who suggested on Monday it was time to kick Trump out of office for good.
“This guy should be removed immediately before his lack of impulse control causes an irreversible tragedy,” Scaramucci said on X. “He doesn’t believe what he just said, if he does it’s a cognitive crisis that responsible people would act on immediately.”

During the first Trump administration, Scaramucci, who mainly worked as a financier, served as White House press secretary for a whopping 10 days.
He has since spent a lot more time than that criticizing his former boss.
Last month, he put a spin on the definition of “Trump Derangement Syndrome,” a so-called condition that the MAGA crowd claims affects the millions of people who don’t support the president.
He told Don Lemon the real people suffering from “TDS” are the folks “that are with him still.
“Those are the people that are deranged,” he said. “Those are the people that have lost touch with reality in terms of how much damage he and his cronies are causing the country and the world.”
In November, Scaramucci told “The Daily Beast Podcast” the truth about Trump’s popularity with donors, aides and GOP officials: He’s not.
“Anybody who thinks the party likes him doesn’t understand the party,” Scaramucci explained. “And that could be the donors who hold their nose and give him money, or that could be the political class that lives with them in Washington.”
He added that “if you’re inside Trump’s inner orbit, you hate the guy’s guts,” but said “there’s a dance because you’re afraid of him, because he’s intimidating you, because of his political prowess and his media presence.”
“He’s sort of the big furry, he’s sasquatch of social media. And you don’t want him bigfooting your ***, right? So you’re afraid of him, but you hate his guts,” Scaramucci said.
Is Trump OK? Experts warn ‘narcissism’ and ‘insecurity’ are overcoming president after vulgar Iran threats and Pope attack

President Donald Trump's recent social media outbursts have reignited concerns about his mental health, with calls to invoke the 25th Amendment growing louder.
On Easter morning, President Donald Trump fired off a Truth Social post critics said was so “unhinged” that it reignited the debate around his mental health.
“Open the F***in’ Strait, you crazy b*****ds, or you’ll be living in Hell,” he raged at the Iranians on his Truth Social platform amid the deeply unpopular war in the Middle East.
Less than 48 hours later, there were calls to invoke the 25th Amendment — an extreme measure allowing for the vice president and a majority of the cabinet to declare the president unfit for office — after Trump threatened to wipe out 93 million people.
“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again,” Trump, who will turn 80 years old in June, posted on April 7 ahead of a deadline for Iran to make a deal with the U.S. “I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will.”
While critics have long claimed that Trump is mentally unfit for office, the concern over his recent social media outbursts, which appear to have gone beyond his usual bluster, has reached new heights amid the war with Iran.
“One of the things that we need to consider is that he is drifting more into a natural state, being fed by the sycophants that are around him, and developing almost like this delusional level of narcissism,” Dr. Geoff Grammer, a Maryland-based psychiatrist and retired Army colonel, told The Independent.
Grammer, who describes himself as “anti-MAGA,” is one of a growing number of mental health professionals sounding the alarm about Trump’s erratic behavior.
In recent days, Trump has attacked Pope Leo after the U.S.-born pontiff said that a “delusion of omnipotence” triggered the Iran war. A day later, Trump was forced to delete an AI-generated image that appeared to depict him as Jesus. The president stretched credulity when he tried to explain Monday that he thought the image was depicting him as a “doctor” — he took it down after about 12 hours, facing backlash from far-right Christian figures.

While experts cannot diagnose someone they have never assessed, they have mused that Trump’s recent behavior is perhaps rooted in a deeper insecurity.
“The reality is, there’s a large differential of things that it could be, including him feeling trapped and developing narcissistic rage,” Grammer said. “It could be that he’s becoming disinhibited, but it could also be that he is just drifting to who he naturally is.”
Trump’s foul-mouthed Truth Social last week wasn’t the first f-bomb he has dropped publicly in his second term. Last June, Trump vented to reporters about a failed ceasefire between Iran and Israel. “We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the f*** they’re doing,” he said, appearing exasperated.
In October, when a reporter quizzed Trump about tensions with Venezuela, Trump said of its now-ousted leader, Nicolas Maduro: “He offered everything. You know why? Because he doesn’t want to f*** around with the United States.
Shari Botwin, a Philadelphia-based trauma therapist and author, said the president’s use of profanities and threats suggest “some possible narcissistic traits.”
“It could suggest that he is having a heightened emotional reactivity, which could indicate that he is experiencing anxiety, fear, or his own frustration,” Botwin said. “His threats to wipe out a civilization demonstrate his own projection to maintain strength and control.”
Ultimately, Botwin said the language could reflect a “need for validation and recognition.”

“The lack of empathy that comes through in his posts can be alarming and indicate that he has no regard for the suffering of other human beings,” Botwin said. “In many cases, when someone is using aggressive rhetoric, it often serves as a defense mechanism to mask one’s own vulnerability or insecurity.”
“The provocative language that he is using also suggests some possible narcissistic traits,” she added, “where he is drawing attention to himself and overriding the possible consequences of his messaging.”
Prominent Democrats issued fresh calls last week to invoke the 25th Amendment.
Rep. Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat on a key congressional oversight committee, urged White House Physician Captain Sean Barbabella to immediately perform a comprehensive cognitive assessment on the president after the congressman called warning signs that the president “has been exhibiting signs consistent with dementia and cognitive decline.”
And in a letter to Vice President JD Vance last week, Rep. Jasmine Crockett claimed the president is “deranged, likely suffering from dementia, and has now brought the United States to the precipice of committing one of the largest war crimes in modern history.”
White House spokesperson Davis Ingle took aim at Raskin and Trump’s predecessor in a statement to The Independent.
“Lightweight Jamie Raskin is a stupid person’s idea of a smart person,” Ingle said. “President Trump’s sharpness, unmatched energy, and historic accessibility stand in stark contrast to what we saw during the past four years when Democrats like Raskin intentionally covered up Joe Biden’s serious mental and physical decline from the American people.”
Experts in conflict resolution, meanwhile, said that the president has backed himself into a corner with Iran.

His “extreme” language could be interpreted as a sign of “frustration” that the conflict has not been as seamless as January’s military operation in Venezuela, said Paul Fritch, a former U.S. diplomat and senior NATO official.
“I think we can understand the President’s increasingly extreme language as a sign of frustration, as he finds himself embroiled in a crisis he does not have the unilateral ability to end,” Fritch told The Independent. “He’s also spent much of the past year dismantling the very diplomatic tools that would be most useful in finding an exit strategy,” Fritch said, adding that cuts to the federal workforce had played a part in this.
“The professional Foreign Service has been cut by more than 20 percent, and offices dedicated to engaging with Iranian civil society and countering Tehran’s disinformation were eliminated,” he explained. “The abolition of USAID led to the end of a program to provide internet access and VPNs to Iranian dissidents. The nuclear negotiations that attempted to forestall the conflict, as well as last weekend’s talks in Pakistan that attempted to end it, did not include regional experts from State or nuclear experts from Energy,” Fritch added.
“This leaves him overly reliant on military threats and coercion, which are ill-suited to achieving the main strategic objectives of reopening the Strait of Hormuz and containing Iran’s nuclear ambitions,” concluded Fritch, a current senior fellow at the Middle East Institute Switzerland and the Geneva Centre for Security Policy.
There are those who argue that Trump is playing to his base and employing the “madman theory” in negotiations with Iran.
But Trump said himself that he was ready to act on the threat to wipe out Iran’s civilization.
“I think that we have a phenomenal military that I rebuilt during my first term and I used in my second term, and I was willing to use it,” he told The New York Post.
“I was willing to do it.”
