President Donald Trump said that unhinged Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, “should be forced to pass an IQ test because he is a low IQ individual and we don’t need low IQ individuals in Congress,” following his disruptive stunt during the President’s joint session address.
“He should be censured,” Trump told Fox News.
“He should be forced to pass an IQ test because he is a low IQ individual and we don’t need low IQ individuals in Congress.”
Trump described Green as “a fool and a clown.”
“Nobody takes him seriously,” Trump said.
“He is an embarrassment to Congress but a much bigger embarrassment to the Democrats.”
The House of Representatives censured Green for interrupting Tuesday’s joint session address to Congress.
“Al Green’s childish outburst exposed the chaos and dysfunction within the Democrat party since President Trump’s overwhelming win in November and his success in office thus far. It is not surprising 198 Democrats refused to support Green’s censure given their history of radical, inflammatory rhetoric fueled by Trump Derangement Syndrome,” House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, R-Minn., said.
The Democrat was removed from Trump’s joint address to Congress after repeatedly disrupting the President’s speech.
As Trump touted Republican victories in the House, Senate, and White House, Green shouted, “You have no mandate!”
The U.S. Sergeant-at-Arms later removed Green.
Other Democrats engaged in silent and vocal acts of protest against Trump, including refusing to stand or clap when Trump designated a 13-year-old boy an honorary Secret Service agent.
The House speaker publicly challenged Democrats to vote with Republicans in favor of the censure.
“Despite my repeated warnings, he refused to cease his antics, and I was forced to remove him from the chamber,” Johnson posted on X.
“He deliberately violated House rules, and an expeditious vote of censure is an appropriate remedy. Any Democrat who is concerned about regaining the trust and respect of the American people should join House Republicans in this effort.”
