Trump Coninues Making The Case For The Implementation Of The 25th Amendment

Now, put that together with Michael Gerson's Washington Post piece this morning, "We Are A Superpower Run By A Simpleton," in which he points out that this is the essence of the Trump Era. "From a foreign policy perspective, this is far worse than being run by a skilled liar. It is an invitation to manipulation and contempt. What we are finding from books, from insider leaks and from investigative journalism is that the rational actors who are closest to the president are frightened by his chaotic leadership style. They describe a total lack of intellectual curiosity, mental discipline and impulse control... Trump pursues no deep or subtle strategies. He does not even consistently seek his own interests. He responds like a child or a narcissist-- but I repeat myself-- to positive or negative stimulation. It is the reason that Trump’s lawyers, in the end, can’t allow him to be interviewed by Robert Mueller. It would be like a 9-year-old defending a PhD dissertation. Or maybe a rabbit jumping into a buzz saw."
On Thursday, Elizabeth Warren told a CNN reporter that "If senior administration officials think the president of the United States is not able to do his job, then they should invoke the 25th Amendment. The Constitution provides for a procedure whenever the vice president and senior officials think the president can't do his job. It does not provide that senior officials go around the president-- take documents off his desk, write anonymous op-eds... Every one of these officials have sworn to uphold the Constitution of the United States. It's time for them to do their job... What kind of a crisis do we have if senior officials believe that the president can't do his job and then refuse to follow the rules that have been laid down in the Constitution? They can't have it both ways. Either they think that the president is not capable of doing his job, in which case they follow the rules in the Constitution, or they feel that the president is capable of doing his job, in which case they follow what the President tells them to do."
This is what the Republican Party has leading them into the November midterm elections. And do they ever deserve what's coming their way! This is what you nominated, elected and still enable and support, Republicanos. This is what you have inflicted on your country... you fucking assholes:

So what if Trump is making a great case to implement the 25th Amendment? no one is going to have the balls to actually take advantage of it.
To conclude the thought above... and to agree for once with obamanation, trump is not the cause. Trump is but a symptom.
As such, invoking the 25th, though loooooong overdue, it would not fix one goddamn thing that is wrong. In fact, it would probably elevate a greater danger to the position of fuhrer. And, in a shithole as degraded as this one, that will happen one way or another eventually anyway. It's inevitable.
The Rs are now Nazis; their only driver is lust for power; their vehicle is hate and fear; their morals are gone; their nationalism is merely an exhortation to their brain dead but zealous base.
The democraps are utterly corrupt; their only driver is their greed for more donations; their vehicle is fear of the greater evil; they are fundamentally dishonest as they pander to voters for support while they vow to serve only the money.
Voters on the right are brain dead crackers who would eagerly send all minorities, elders, the poor, liberals and women to the ovens to cleanse their coming caliphate.
Voters on the left are shit-for-brains who still believe that the democraps give a flying fuck about them in spite of all the ratfucking they've actually gotten from them since 1981. They still adore bill fucking Clinton in spite of the FACT that he gave wall street the deregs they needed to create the 2008 crash; they still adore obamanation in spite of his refusal to do shit about 2008's fraudsters, torturers, labor, equality, wars, sustenance programs... anything, really.
Nobody understands the first thing about economics; nobody gives a shit about torture, war crimes. Nobody understands that injustice tolerated for anyone leads to injustice tolerate for everyone.
When the parties that were supported by 95.5% of the electorate (2016) are shit but still enjoy that level of support; when both parties continue to serve the right but nobody understands it... trump and worse becomes inevitable.
trump and worse are only symptoms of the fundamental stupidity and evil of the voters.
Dr. Bart Rossi told them that Trump has been exhibiting narcissistic behavior .... He’s self-absorbed to the point where he’s only concerned about himself.
Sounds like you could say this about everyone in DC, couldn't you? And regarding delusions: What would you call someone who thinks he brought Hope and Change to America when all he did was enlarge the wars and let the bankers run free?
The 25th was adopted as a remedy for a Caligula or a permanently comatose Lincoln or JFK (or a Reagan in his 2nd term not knowing he was alive).
The impeachment clause in the constitution was written for the Caligula scenario... or Reagan or Nixon or obamanation or W or cheney (or a liar on the SC?).
But these were written assuming someone that has the responsibility for invoking them:
1) are not Nazi co-conspirators who have power as their only goal
2) have a ball
3) are not being bribed to NOT invoke them by billions in contributions and/or promises of future riches.
4) take their oath of office seriously
The founders and even those who wrote the 25th assumed that people had the survival and best interests of the republic foremost in their minds... and had minds... and had balls.
No such people exist.
