I am writing to express my deep concern about President Trump's fitness for office and to urge Congress to immediately hold hearings to investigate this critical matter. Recent events and statements have raised serious questions about both the President's physical health and his commitment to democratic principles.
Firstly, there are troubling signs regarding the President's physical condition. Recurring bruising on his right hand has been visible during public appearances. While the White House attributes this to handshaking and aspirin use, the persistent nature of these marks suggests the possibility of undisclosed medical treatments. This lack of transparency about the President's health is deeply concerning, especially given the demands of the office.
Even more alarming are the President's recent comments about dictatorships. He claimed that "some people" are asking for a dictator, while denying that he is one himself. This rhetoric is a dangerous attempt to normalize authoritarian governance in our democracy. It's particularly troubling in light of his recent executive order to criminalize flag burning, despite well-established Supreme Court rulings protecting such acts as free speech under the First Amendment.
The President's judgment on critical issues is also questionable. His regime reportedly plans to remove the COVID-19 vaccine from shelves within months, based on skepticism about its safety and efficacy. This decision, if implemented, could have catastrophic public health consequences and appears to lack any scientific basis.
Furthermore, over 180 FEMA employees have warned Congress that the President's efforts to phase out the agency could lead to a disaster on the scale of Hurricane Katrina. They cite mismanagement, the undoing of critical rules, and insufficient leadership. This reckless approach to emergency management puts American lives at risk.
The President's recent actions in economic policy also raise red flags. The government's acquisition of a 10% stake in Intel, which Trump has staunchly defended, sets a concerning precedent of direct government intervention in private industry. His economic adviser's suggestion that more such deals may be forthcoming indicates a shift towards a command economy model incompatible with American free market principles.
Given these serious concerns about the President's physical health, mental acuity, and commitment to democratic norms, I strongly urge Congress to initiate immediate hearings to assess his fitness for office. The stability of our nation and the integrity of our democratic institutions are at stake. We need a thorough, bipartisan investigation to ensure that the person occupying the highest office in our land is capable of fulfilling their constitutional duties and upholding the values of our republic.
