House Democrats plan event to scrutinize Trump's mental health

House Democrats plan to hold an event intended to highlight what they say is President Trumps deteriorating mental health.
House Budget Committee Chairman John Yarmuth (D-Ky.) said he and Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) will host Dr. Bandy Lee, a Yale School of Medicine psychiatrist who edited the best-selling book The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President.
We are planning to do something where she can make a presentation to other members, so that they'll be aware of what she's been working on, Yarmuth told The Hill in a brief interview.
Yarmuth said he anticipates the event, which was first reported by the Washington Examiner, will happen sometime in July.
Yarmuth said he thinks its important that members of Congress and the public understand the position of Lee and the other psychologists in the book, which argues that Trumps mental health has deteriorated to the point where it poses a threat to the country.
