NEW: PELOSI and Rep. RASKIN plan to introduce legislation tomorrow to establish a commission under the 25th Amendment charged with evaluating the president& #39;s mental/physical capacity.
RASKIN has already filed very similar legislation. It creates a congressional body (which is actually contemplated in the 25th amendment itself) made up of doctors, psychiatrists and former executive branch officials to make judgments if a president& #39;s health is failing.
Here is that Raskin bill, which tomorrow& #39;s 25th amendment announcement will be based on: https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/1987/text">https://www.congress.gov/bill/115t...
This is not a bill that& #39;s going to go anywhere anytime soon. But it is certainly going to provoke Trump, who has already tweeted about it today.
