Just to make it crystal clear that this woman is, in fact, an adult.

Just to make it crystal clear that this woman is, in fact, an adult.

At least on paper.

Isn't there a requirement for mental sanity among elected officials? (in the medical sense) Because can't this easily be constructed as a sure sign that she suffers from dementia? Or well, her colleagues do?

You can be petty as fuck without having dementia.

Also I don't think there is such a requirement, since most of them have an imaginary friend.

it's nearly gone back around at this point into "grandma's been on one recently, do you still have any of that xanax?"
