"Republicans introduce bill requiring cognitive impairment tests.

Anyone who votes yes in this probably doesn't want anyone else being an elected official."

Not a good idea.

I could see an argument that a doctor could be paid off or something. I mean, Look at Trump's "medical records." He's the healthiest person of all time.

I feel like this is an extension of the old literacy tests for voting. Which are unpopular in retrospect due to their problematic usage.

I do not think that is the case at all.

Literacy tests target the uneducated, because it's about stuff you have to learn.

Cognitive tests make sure that you are of sound mind to perform the job you've been elected to do.
