During a video released by Team Trump on Monday, former President and 2024 candidate Donald Trump called for mental competency tests for all candidates.
“In my mind, anybody running for the office of President of the United States should agree to take a full and complete mental competency test —simultaneously or before with the announcement that he or she is running,” Trump says in the video.
“Being an outstanding president requires great mental acuity and physical stamina and strength. If you don’t have these qualities or traits, it is likely that you will not succeed and you will disappoint the entire world let alone our own country.”
Watch the video above.
Fellow 2024 candidate Nikki Haley agrees with the former President.
During her campaign announcement earlier this month, former governor and ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley confirmed she too was for competency tests for aging politicans.
“In the America I see, the permanent politician will finally retire,” said Haley. “We’ll have term limits for Congress. And mandatory mental competency tests for politicians over 75 years old.”
