Republican Congressman Calls for Biden Cognitive Test Amid Growing Concerns over Mental Fitness

Rep. Earl L. “Buddy” Carter (R-GA) has made a call to White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zients, urging him to request a cognitive test for President Biden due to concerns about his mental fitness. The letter follows reports from the Wall Street Journal that have raised questions about the President’s cognitive abilities.

In his letter, Carter, who has experience as a consultant pharmacist, draws on his expertise to highlight signs of cognitive decline that he has observed in patients. He notes that the President’s behavior aligns with what he has seen in individuals experiencing mental decline and forgetfulness. Carter expresses concern that the President’s mental state could be creating a leadership vacuum that compromises the competence required for the role.

Carter calls for the President to undergo a cognitive test immediately and share the results with the public. He emphasizes the importance of transparency in assessing the mental and intellectual health of the President to reassure the American people about their safety and security. Carter’s letter aims to address growing concerns about Biden’s mental state and provide clarity for the public.

The call for a cognitive test is not without controversy, as some have criticized it as an invasion of privacy and unethical. However, Carter argues that transparency is essential in order to ensure that Americans feel confident in their elected leader’s ability to carry out their duties effectively.

Overall, Carter’s letter highlights a growing concern among Republicans about Biden’s mental fitness and raises questions about his ability to lead effectively as president.

Despite these concerns, many Democrats have expressed support for Biden’s decision not to undergo a cognitive test at this time, arguing that it would only serve to politicize an already sensitive issue.

As this debate continues, it remains unclear whether or not Biden will ultimately decide to undergo a cognitive test or how these concerns will impact his presidency moving forward.
