Louie Gohmert is the latest to say attacks on Hillary’s mental stability and health are off limits, yet his reasoning was slightly different than that coming from Clinton’s own campaign.
The Texas congressman joked with attendees at Friday’s Values Voter Summit that “Hillary Clinton has made clear she is mentally impaired, and this is not somebody you should be making fun of,” reports the Washington Examiner.
“I do want want to warn, since most people here are Christians, and I’m serious about this — a true believer does what Jesus did and still does,” Gohmert stated. “You don’t make fun of people who are impaired [or] have special needs…. whether you like her or not.”

Instead, Gohmert urged attendees America should “be praying for Hillary Clinton. There’s special needs there, there’s mental impairment.”
“I get the impression that in law school and along the way, she’s been very, very smart, but I don’t know,” he continued. “Maybe it was the concussion, the fall back, when she did. Or maybe — who knows.”
The Trump supporter also ribbed Clinton for using hammers to destroy her State Department devices.
“If I were going to smash cell phones, Blackberrys, I’d use a two pound sledge. I think that’s the most — well maybe, who knows. Maybe somebody got to wail it around and hit her again.”
