Democrats have called for the 25th Amendment to be invoked to remove President Donald Trump after his latest threat that “the entire civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again”. Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene posted, “Not a single bomb has fallen on America. We cannot kill an entire civilization. This is evil and madness.” Dem Congressman Ro Khanna said, “We need to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump. Threatening war crimes is a blatant violation of our Constitution and the Geneva Conventions.” “The 25th Amendment needs to be invoked. He is a genocidal maniac. Our Congress and military need to intervene. We are beyond insanity,” Candace Owens posted. Conservative commentator Alex Jones also invoked the 25th Amendment. Dem Senator Chuck Schumer posted, “This is an extremely sick man. Every Republican who refuses to join us in voting against this wanton war on choice, no matter what it takes, will face every consequence.” “Too bad. Donald Trump should be impeached. When will it be enough for my Republican colleagues to muster the courage and remove him from office?” Ilhan Omar wrote. “Tonight an entire civilization will die, never to be brought back again. I don’t want it to happen, but maybe it will. However, now that we have complete and total regime change, where different, smarter and less radical people prevail, maybe something revolutionary wonderful can happen…” Trump posted.
What is the 25th Amendment?
The 25th Amendment to the United States Constitution deals with what happens if the President or Vice President is unable to serve. It was ratified in 1967 after concerns grew over events such as the assassination of President Kennedy. If the President dies, resigns, or is removed, the Vice President becomes President.
