I’m sure he thinks all of Jeffrey’s girls “asked” for it, too.

That article reads like the dumb “two truths and a lie” game, except they’re probably all true

ICE Skating has a whole new meaning

So, if we ignore that 4th amendment violation and note how often this administration violated the 1st amendment, I will note that 1 + 5 + 6 + 13 = a 25th amendment solution.

You can’t argue that math! (Literally, it can’t be argued with!)

Probably because they anticipate having the votes in the House (and the support of enough of the Senate) for Noem, but not for Trump himself.

OTOH, this gives Trump a second shot at a new person. He’ll probably nominate Ken Paxton…

He’s frustrated? That’s unfortunate. Who knows what that extra stress will do to the heart health of a man his age…

Well, he has the first half of “Dictator” down…

The President of the US wants the dollar to crumble, because most of his personal money is in alternate digital currencies…

US Catholic Cardinals are one of the enablers for this administration, by focusing on abortion above all other issues during the election. It’s a little too late now, though.

No, but he did declare war on an island

Doubt it. Reagan likely had Alzheimer’s while President, nobody cared.

That’s the text all right, but the text also says that all the President has to do is present Congress with a “written declaration that no inability exists” to get his job back. So as long as the President has the mental acuity to write a letter, he gets his job back. Not a high bar at all, and your “psychotic menace” or “nervous breakdown” Presidents can still write a letter.

You’re absolutely correct. But people need to realize that the 25th amendment is not a viable option. The threshold for action via the 25th Amendment is higher. If impeachment won’t work, the 25th amendment won’t either.

Impeachment is meant as a check on an Imperial Presidency. In the Constitution, it is supposed to be triggered in response to “High Crimes and Misdemeanors”. It leaves to Congress what that means. So it does not have to be a chargeable crime. The President is supposed to uphold the Constitution, and Treaties like the NATO treaty are supposed to have the same force as the Constitution. Threatening to attack our allies should count as impeachable.

However, he has been impeached twice and failed because Republicans in Congress have his back. In particular, the second time around McConnell said that Trump deserved punishment, but it was better done in the courts. Then Surprise! the Courts said the only way to hold a sitting President to account was through impeachment. It was an ouroborous of letting him off the hook.

We may have to live with the fact that there is no way to fix this, other than voters (or God Himself) intervening, as long as Republicans are too chickenshit to stand up to Trump.

Sigh. I keep reminding people that the 25th Amendment was not meant for this. It was meant for when a President is physically incapacitated. Like, if a President was shot in the head, and is still alive, but in a coma. Because all the President has to do is say “Naw, I’m good”, and he gets his office back. If the VP and Cabinet still agree, it takes a 2/3 majority of both Houses to make the expulsion stick. And even then, the VP carries in as “Acting President”, which is not formally defined anywhere.

Impeachment is the way to handle this. It has a lower threshold. It doesn’t require the VP or Cabinet to sign off first, and only needs 1/2 the House to start the process. And once the President is removed from office by 2/3 of the Senate, the VP becomes the actual President, no “acting” involved.

Yet is someone wanted to sue Trump, the Supremes would probably toss it out of court. What do you call a ruler who can never be held to account by his subjects?

Watch as no European country pays the Danegeld, while all of Trump’s Arab business partners in the Middle East do. Then Trump will complain about how “Europe doesn’t want peace” before taking Greenland by force, and use Saudi money to build a Monument to Peace on the grounds of the new Trump Gaza golf resort (also built with this money)

Safest to have her take Chuck’s Senate seat. But I am acting a bit selfish here: as a New York State resident, I don’t want to give her up yet.

Sure, but she appears to be an effective enough politician that making her VP is a bit of a waste. All the VP does is settle fights in the Senate and wait for the President to die.
