Writing for the magazine, Evan Osnos reports that “Trump’s critics are actively exploring the path to impeachment or the invocation of the Twenty-fifth Amendment, which allows for the replacement of a President who is judged to be mentally unfit.”

I’m sure Mad-dog McCain is one of them. Like he should be calling anyone mentally unfit.

Since before he was sworn in...

This sure is breaking news. LOL

Not a comment regarding how you posted it. It’s just that this paper reports this as if it’s something new, a new effort.

Not hardly...

That 'coterie' of congressmen are patently without knowledge of Non-political behavior and are further dishonest as 99% of them are Politically Correct...for votes. The Trump family, all of it even the "wife in-law" are exemplar Americans.

He is an outsider. To both sides.

They will JFK him before they ever get around to impeaching him.
