  That’s ableist though. Implies disabled people are inherently inferior if you don’t want them to be president.

  Roosvelt was in a wheelchair much of his time and he did “fine”.

  (Technically I’m against the idea of politicians at all so don’t feel like glorifying them).

    We’re not talking about “disabled people”, we’re talking about people with mental illness that impairs them.

    Physical disability absolutely not be the same thing. Would you vote fuckin Ted Bundy for President?

    Airline pilots and train drivers must be passed as mentally fit before they’re allowed to control the destiny of a few thousand people.

    Perhaps at least that much care could be taken with the job that holds the ability to launch nuclear weapons.

  I had a co-worker who said he didn’t want a woman to be president because “she’d start a war every month.” I guess he’s not really misogynist like I thought.
