15. I doubt BRAIN SLICE will happen, but his BEHAVIOR was/is illegal even by current law if said law

is allowed to proceed as it would for anyone else.

HOWEVER I do like the idea that the nominees for Presidential office must pass at least basic mental health screening tests and take some sort of psych evaluation before even being allowed to run for office.

WHY we haven't thought of this before is beyond me.

SHOULDN'T the person with their finger on the button that can launch the nukes be determined SANE BEFORE being put in that position of power?
