Keith Olbermann offers a surprisingly easy and constitutional way to fire Donald Trump

Green Party nominee Jill Stein is trying to reverse the presidential election result through recounts in three Rust Belt states, and there's a push to have the Electoral College just pick Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump, despite Trump winning more electoral votes, but Keith Olbermann says there's an easier way to strip Trump of power: "The 25th Amendment, Section Four."

[Nothingburger]

Here’s a thought that just struck me. I’m still a bit groggy but here it is —

Are Beck and Olbermann the same person?

[oblomov]

Nothing, not even evidence of partisan collusion, can get a “journalist” fired.

We need Chuck on this thread

There is nothing more enjoyable than watching Olbermann getting unhinged.

I still remember when Ann Coulter got his goat by claiming, correctly as it seems, that ole Olby didn’t graduate from the Ivy League Cornell but the Ag School Cornell. Olby flipped out and even showed his diploma on his show the next day.

That man might be intelligent but he is more childish than smart.

Olberdork's scenario has one problem: a Republican Congress. Even if Pence stabbed him in the back and declared him incompetent to serve, Trump could still send a letter to Congress saying, "Hey, I'm OK." And if Soros had Trump spirited away to his evil genius lair in lower Latvia or wherever, Congress could still decide Trump was President:

Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.

I suspect the Left would be even more unhappy with President Pence.

[KC Burke]

I know that there are parakeets with bigger viewership but how many times are we going to have to watch this clown-car roll over before the media forgets him forevever?

[Bayan]

Once a moron, always a moron. My dog is smarter than Olbermann.

[TBP]

But he would have to get Vice President Pence and Trump’s Cabinet to do that. How much does Keith want to bet that that happens?

[Gargantua]

Keith Übermoron is human garbage, detritus, a vast, reeking bowl of putrifacted pus. Neither do I like him nor wish him well, not one little bit.

[clearcarbon]

If this is a valid remedy, let's try it on obama.

[Shamrock-DW]

This guy has always been an oxygen thief. Probably could use a third eye...

[Veggie Todd]

If there was an easy and constitutional way to get rid of a President, we wouldn’t have had Bathhouse Barry for eight years.

[Chode]

i hope they all die of dehydration from crying...

[Fiddlstix]

I'm with you

[Chode]

it'd be glorious

[arthurus]

Most liberals aren’t real homosexuals. Many are just wannabes. Some are mere su___ er, sycophants to homosexuals.

[arthurus]

Gore might have done that but doing it to a Clinton is not conducive to a long healthy life.

[Carry me back]

Olbermann is a nut. He and Beck are the winners... so far.
