House Judiciary Democrats ask Pence to invoke 25th Amendment to remove Trump (Page 4/5)

What they're doing is throwing a total troll at him because some protesters passed gas while sitting in their office chairs.
They're trolling Trump to the end. And they're showing how childish they can be as was said above.

Cliff would be better off just banning you. It's time to drain the swamp.

The fact that you think that the 25th Amendment could or should be used for political expediency says a lot of very bad things about your beliefs.



Where did I say that? I don’t think that. Don’t twist what I’ve said just because you were wrong.

I think he should’ve been impeached long ago. I can understand impeaching now, to make sure when this happens in the future, there is set precedent, but I don’t think it makes a ton of sense given we have fewer than two weeks left. I don’t think the 25th should be used. It’ll just make everything worse.

Could it be used? Yes. It’s written right there in the 25th exactly how it’s used, and the powers are broad.

Knowing that what goes around, eventually comes around again.
I believe this should be allowed to die a very natural death. This is all about throwing crap at DJT. We all know it. Where were all these folks when Rep. Maxine Waters advocated protests and Speaker Pelosi didn't care about statues as it applied to rioting.

I am not suggesting anything but what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

She didn't just call for protests. She called for people to physically, aggressively intimidate Trump supporters anywhere they see them.

She needs to the feel the same wrath.

You are correct. Thanks for the correction.

A large part of the inane actions of the DNC is to keep their ignorant base riled up. Many voters are not well versed in the laws of this nation, and will believe anything that the media reports.

So much of what they do is just for the optics or the symbolism.

I believe you are correct in the above posting.

I also believe that all this talk about impeaching President Trump or enacting the 25th Amendment is to ensure DJT can't run again. While I doubt that will happen, the Dems don't want to go there.

He's too old for that and didn't deliver the first time.

The problem now is that he was our last chance for the next 20 years. the media/social media and voting systems are now locked in and even a billionaire won't be able to brute his way in again. They'll get no media platform and no votes. Soon they'll outlaw all dissent. You won't get credit, a job and you won't be able to trade if you have wrong think. That's next.
Trump was the last one (edit-last outsider) who will be allowed to use the system without restraints to get elected. He used social media, news media. They started filtering him after elected so the next guy will get filtered from the start. Netanyahu/Bloomberg types will be the only ones allowed to use without filter.

I agree it should die a natural death, but I don't think it's about throwing crap at DJT. I think it's about the health of the nation. You can take a stance that we're so close that we should just get through it (my preference), or you can take a stance that it's dangerous to allow a President to overhaul an election on no more than allegations (which is certainly what DJT tried to do), and that ignoring it just leaves the door open for the future. I personally don't think it's that dire, and I trust our process, but that's how I see the two sides of it.

That's because it's your side that's winning. Don't fret. You'll keep getting it your way.
