Milley told Pelosi he's not qualified to determine Trump's 'mental health'
when she expressed concern about the former president using nuclear weapons
Gen. Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee on Tuesday offered new details on a conversation he had with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi regarding President Donald Trump and nuclear weapons.
Milley said that Pelosi in January called him to "inquire about the President's ability to launch nuclear weapons. I sought to assure her that nuclear launch is governed by a very specific and deliberate process."
The top US general said Pelosi was "concerned and made various personal references characterizing the President." Milley underscored to Pelosi that the president has unilateral authority to launch nuclear weapons "but he doesn't launch them alone," he said.
Milley added that he also told Pelosi, "I am not qualified to determine the mental health of the president of the United States." This reference to Trump's mental health was not included in Milley's prepared remarks for the hearing.
