Trump blasts Rep. Al Green as ‘an embarrassment’ to Democrats, says he ‘should be forced to take an IQ test’

President Donald Trump made headlines on Thursday when he told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview that Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, should be required to pass an IQ test due to being a “low IQ individual” and stated that “we don’t need low IQ individuals in Congress.” This statement came after Green disrupted the president’s joint session address to Congress.

The House of Representatives took action against Green on Thursday, censuring him in a bipartisan vote for his interruption of the president’s speech. The incident occurred during Trump’s address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday.

In response to the censure, President Trump expressed his thoughts on the matter in the exclusive interview with Fox News Digital. He criticized Green, referring to him as “a fool and a clown” and stating that he should be censured for his actions. Trump further emphasized that Green’s behavior was not taken seriously and that he was an embarrassment to Congress and the Democratic party.

During the joint session address, Green, a 77-year-old Democrat, was removed from the proceedings after repeatedly disrupting the president’s speech by shouting, “You have no mandate!” as Trump highlighted Republican victories in various branches of government. House Speaker Mike Johnson intervened and had Green removed by the U.S. Sergeant-at-Arms.
