Washington, D.C. – Over the past several months, experts have commented on Donald Trump’s deteriorating mental acuity. Just this weekend, he suggested several outlandish conspiracy theories regarding Democrats and Vice President Kamala Harris. Today, the Congressional Integrity Project is calling on Rep. James Comer, chairman of the House Oversight Committee, to launch an investigation into the former president’s mental acuity, given his record of investigating the topic.
Congressional Integrity Project executive director Kyle Herrig said the following:
“James Comer has spent the past year and a half pursuing baseless political stunts and weaponizing his own committee on behalf of Donald Trump. It’s time for him to turn his attention to the cognitive state of the former president. Each day, his speeches and Truth Social posts become increasingly unhinged, posing a real threat to our country. If James Comer cared about the mental state of our nation’s leaders, he would start sending subpoenas to those in Trump’s inner circle.”
