Measure by Jamie Raskin follows statements by Trump about annihilating Iran and post depicting himself as Jesus
House Democrats on Tuesday proposed creating a commission that would work with JD Vance to remove Donald Trump from office under the 25th amendment, should they determine he is no longer fit to serve.
The measure, introduced by Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat on the House judiciary committee, follows a series of statements from Trump, including his recent warning that Iran’s “whole civilization will die” if it did not capitulate to his demands, and a social media post that depicted him as Jesus Christ.
Democratic lawmakers and other opponents, including the former CIA director John Brennan, have seized on those comments to argue that the 79-year-old president is no longer competent to lead the country, and that the US vice-president should work with Trump’s cabinet to remove him.
This really is the worst timeline. Remember on January 1st at 12:01 AM when there was a small glimpse of hope this year wasn’t going to be as bad as last. That was a good couple of minutes
The last time I had that feeling over new years’ mourning was like 2017-18, when I first started smoking. I decided to stop lying to myself back then.
