MATT WALSH (HOST): Now, usually you expect that in a confirmation hearing that the worst thing that can happen is the — is that the nominee says something disqualifying.
But in this case, the senator said something disqualifying. Because let me be extremely clear about this — if you need psychiatric drugs in order to function, then you are not fit to serve at the highest levels of government. And we don't know. Is she still taking the psychiatric medication? She said that she did. Is she still? Not sure. We need clarification on that. Because if she is, she shouldn't be in office.
You know, if you need psychiatric medication, you're not qualified to teach elementary school students or operate heavy machinery for that matter. You simply cannot claim that you're competent to govern if you need to regularly take psychoactive substances. So am I saying that every lawmaker on antidepressants should be removed from office? Yes. I'm absolutely saying that. That should be common sense. You just said you need drugs to make your mind clear. Well and you're running the country? What?
