Cohen says Trump’s cabinet should invoke 25th Amendment to boot president out
William Cohen, former defense secretary, talking to CNBC, said President Donald Trump’s cabinet should invoke the 25th Amendment to remove him from office after pro-Trump supporters turned violent in the US Capitol, resulting in four deaths. The 25th Amendment outlines how a president can be removed by the vice president and cabinet members if deemed incapable of handling the presidency.
Trump supporters were killed by police, they did not murder anyone. Unlike antifa or BLM. :D
And create more violence? Trump was not responsible for the actions of those people, and based on his statements didnt condone them. Still, seems like a waste of time unless Trump is legitimately egging on violence.
“Trump supporters turned violent leading to four deaths” bro who wrote that? You’re lying your a55 off. Four trump supporters got killed by cops.
I think Trump should have been impeached and convicted -- and that the charges should have been much broader than what they brought. But I don't see any grounds for removing him with 25th Amendment and practically do not think it would have good effects. It would just turn him into a martyr and give QAnon more fodder.
Trump’s cabinet is made up of sycophants. They would never use the 25th amendment to remove Putin’s puppet. For them it’s communist dictatorship over Democracy.
It’s the only decent thing to do. Trump’s own people say he’s become unhinged. He’s obsessed with holding on to power. Those are the telltale signs of a dictator. If Our Government is to get a Good handle on this they need to invoke the 25th Amendment.
Alternate headline: Lunatic TDS people go into hyper-crazy mode. 669 days until we get a chance to fix this mess.
How shocking that an elitist authoritarian would want to use extreme measures against the other party, just because he can.
The picture says it all. These people are not Trump supporters. They are opportunists from the unwashed side.
To be honest, those people don't look like real Trump supporters.
Resulting in four deaths? I thought this app was supposed to be against fake news.
1 minute is too many for a deranged sociopath to have access to nuclear weapons. It's that hard to understand?
This is interesting. The situation is "deplorable". The movies is that it was supporters isn't it? However it very well could be, in this hyperpartisan age that there were political foes to help make the "protest" worse. Some will laugh of course that it is not possible. I challenge that counter efforts have happened quite often AT LEAST several times this year on both sides.
Lol! Yeah good luck with all that.
I hate my species and want to move into the woods. Time to save up for a van.
Wow corporate media is misleading the public like crazy again. What are they so scared of?
Yeah, thats a non starter.
pLaY StUpId gAMes...
YES 👏🏼 after yesterday we must!
Why boot someone out who only has a couple weeks left? Why is the opinion even making it into articles? If you are anti-trump, please rationalize this for me, because it seems devoid of basic logistical thought.
