We did exactly that with FDR in 1944Ok. Let’s pretend that is true about Trump (I don’t agree), then should we be concerned about a potential Biden presidency for that reason, and should there be some sort of screening?If so, then OP is still pertinent. In my personal opinion, it fits Trump, in yours it fits Biden. We are both entitled to our opinions ... and regardless of who support...the point is the same. Should it be a concern?
Trump has always been an off the cuff rambling speaker. Look at his old show appearances. Listen to him on howard stern.
He's the same.
Biden though, over the last few months it seems he is not only rambling, but trailing off into bizarre anecdotes.
Has trump mentioned his legs being stroked by a child yet? If so then by all means yes.
However, the attempt to question any persons mental health, absent an evaluation by a competent expert, in a proper setting, is very stalinist.
Tread carefully.
Which is kind of the point of the OP. Is there a time when it should be done, and can it be done without violating personal rights or the Constitution. What if you get some one in office that becomes mentally incompetent?
Nope. How about letting the people decide. We live in a Representative Republic. Let us adhere to the law instead of turning stalinist.
There are plenty of countries like that already.
Nobody dared to question his fitness to be President. He had blood pressure through the roof and was on some serious medication
Same with JFK. He was a on a medication cocktail that would not qualify him to drive, let alone run the country
People deserve to know the medical condition of the man they are considering for president
