Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene says what’s good for President Donald Trump is good for Congress as well. She wants all elected lawmakers to get physicals and make the results public. She also wants our elected representatives to pass a drug test, divulge their alcohol consumption, and provide their prescription medication usage.

President Trump is reporting to Walter Reed for his annual physical.
I am sure he will have a great report because I know he is in fantastic shape and is sharp as a tack!
However, House Representatives and Senators should have to have physicals as well and the results should be public.
Drug test, alcohol consumption, and specific prescription medication usage should be known to the public.
We have many serving that are not mentally or physically functioning well enough to serve.
Even some who are barely functioning and whose staff fully control their voting cards!
When your Rep or Senator is constantly using their staff like nursing home care workers, it’s time for them to RETIRE and it’s time for them to be replaced!
This goes for both sides of the aisle!

If most Americans have to do this to get a job it only makes sense for those we vote into office.
Commenters know why most of Congress would oppose these requirements.

They’re like congressional zombies at this point.
Many posters have an idea of what should happen if lawmakers fail these currently hypothetical tests.
