Is this the right way to get Trump out of the White House? Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"President Donald Trump‘s controversial decisions in the wake of the Charlottesville attack have led to renewed questions of POTUS’s mental fitness, and whether the 25th Amendment could be used to remove him from office. This certainly is not the first time that this subject has come up. Trump’s lawyers complained in a court filing last month that a lawsuit against the President was only intended to get “embarrassing” dirt on Trump, including mental health information. But is much digging necessary?
The 25th Amendment allows for the removal of a President if the Vice President and a sufficient number of other officials declare in a written statement that he is unable to carry out his duties. Sure, some of the reasons people have given for why Trump is unfit have been overblown, to be sure, but the sheer volume of them is hard to ignore. If Mike Pence ever felt the need to push for Trump’s removal, here are some of the examples he could give to support the decision. Trump’s behavior has certainly been unorthodox, but are any of these truly reasons to declare him unfit? You decide.”*
