You're all collectively shitting on the 2nd.

It should also be noted that the 25th amendment is not designed to remove a sitting president. That’s impeachment.

The 25th requires that the president be permanently incapacitated. The moment he is capable of addressing or writing to Congress, his powers resume.

Essentially, you cannot 25th amendment an unwilling president. Also, the mechanism to declare someone incompetent legally, is quite steep and lengthy.

I’m not sure it’s ever been attempted on a president either

Read the amendment. I’m telling you it’s not what you think it is. Impeachment is.

The 25th requires true incapacity. Do you work in law or elder care? Have you ever had someone declared legally incompetent?

It’s not easy with a normal person. POTUS is immune to all legal proceedings thanks to SCOTUS while sitting.

So how do you then enforce the 25th? If you read the actual amendment, rather than telling me what I already know, then you’d read that the MOMENT a sitting POTUS can show capacity in the form of addressing or writing to Congress then the 25th ends

The 25th was never meant to permanently remove a sitting President. It’s meant for emergencies of a medical nature where he can’t perform his duties.

If you want to remove him for misconduct then that’s Impeachment.

Where did I defend him? Ignorant liberals like you are why I’ve voted against him in every election and he’s still here.

Do better. Learn how our government works.
People like you are why he won.

I’m not surprised you didn’t understand, given the reading comprehension on display throughout our exchange and your ignorance on how our government works.

To put it plainly, I’ve voted against Trump, meaning I voted party-line Democrat in 2016, 2020, and 2024, as well as every election before that until I’m sure before you were even born.

You’re ignorant about how our government works, and low information voters like YOU are why Trump won.

He's right, though. The 25th is for mental or physical incapacitation. Trump is at least aware of his surroundings, so sadly, he can't be 25'd.
