What is the 25th Amendment that could remove Donald Trump?

There are two ways to remove a president from office: the 25th Amendment of the US Constitution and impeachment followed by a Senate conviction.A source familiar with the effort said there have been some preliminary discussions among some Cabinet members and Trump allies about invoking the 25th Amendment.

Section 4 addresses situations where a president is unable to do the job but does not step down voluntarily. Trump could subsequently declare that he is capable of resuming the job. If Pence and the majority of the Cabinet do not contest Trump's determination, Trump regains power. Prof Campos said the 25th Amendment would be an appropriate way to remove Trump from office and has the benefit of being quicker than impeachment.

If a simple majority of the House's 435 members approves bringing charges, known as "articles of impeachment," the process moves to the Senate, the upper chamber, which holds a trial to determine the president's guilt.Trump was previously impeached by the Democratic-led US House in December 2019 on charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress stemming from his efforts to pressure Ukraine to investigate Biden and his son.

Quickest way to civil war. Not smart.

He never should of gotten the office in the first place he’s deranged.

It will stop him running for 2024

No

The Senate can oust him, as they did Nixon.

Doesn’t make a blind bit of difference he’s away in 2 weeks anyway.

He should be jailed for sedition

it's illegal to talk about election interference in crime ridden america but it's ok to talk about election interference in crime free belarus , what an amazing coincidence

He should be. And he held accountable for what he done.

However, Pence is also dangerous. And if Pence pulled the “insurrection” jazz he can refuse to transition power until its “dealt with” OR if we are at “war” with a genuine threat, he can refuse transition. I’m more weary of those tactics than surviving 2 more weeks...

Too little too late.
