Democratic Bill Lays the Groundwork to Remove Trump From Office
ABC News ^ | Phil McCausland

House Democrats are on a mission to educate the American people about a little-known power of the 25th Amendment — the ousting of the president.

Led by freshman Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland, a group of growing Democratic co-signers has put forth a bill that could force President Donald Trump from office if he were found mentally or physically unfit.

Raskin's "bill" has been in the works since April. Where is the pushback on this?

I wish some sane folks would step in and end the coup. It's way past time for Republicans (most it seems with their payoff-fueled agenda) stand with President Trump and accomplish things. If they don't, I cannot see how the nation can survive.

What do we have if the party that lost refuses to accept the results of an election? It sure isn't Constitutional government.

“Where is the pushback on this”

No need as it’s a childish silly maneuver with absolutely no chance of going anywhere.

As Mark Steyn said, when demonicRATS are in power they attempt to overthrow foreign governments; when they are not in power, they attempt to overthrow the American government.

Time to put a million people in the streets of Washington and put the fear of God into them.

The author of this is abominally naïve. Just Imagine what America would look like as the parties took sides on such an attempt. Got any idea what our first civil war looked like? Better check!!!

This will be a gift to President Trump for his re-election. Makes the Democrats look like petty fools. They can’t win on the issues, so they have to resort to trying to force him out of office with this idiotic bill.

It’s the only part of the Constitution they have read.

If the Republicans won’t stand up for us, there’s no way they will stand up for Trump. They are political cowards.

Wait til the polling comes back showing how unpopular this idea is. Then the Dems will split and we’ll see more rat-on-rat warfare, meanwhile Trump will shoot out a few Tweets that will bury the story as he un-does another piece of Obama’s legacy.

You can’t push stupid, you only want to expose it so everyone can see it. I expect Trump will be the one to expose this nutty idea himself, turning it into reactive armor against the dems.

If dems regain the house, they WILL impeach DJT without cause or evidence, though it would be unlikely for the senate to convict.

Like all democrat members of the Maryland delegation (Only one Republican) Raskin continues to Step’n Fetchit routine as he dances to the tune of his leaders.

Typical liberal incapable of independent thought
