#2545
RENO, NV- So now Trump is labeling discussion of invoking the 25th Amendment, to remove him from office as being “illegal and treasonous.” Ironically, he is merely adding to the already large stack of evidence that he truly is incompetent. He proves that he either hasn’t actually read the amendment or that he doesn’t really understand it and the incredibly strong safeguards it contains.

The first of the nearly insurmountable hurdles would be for his own vice president (yes, Pence, the political Republican manikin) and a majority of his cabinet members to become co-conspirators in this supposed act of treason, declaring him “unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.” 

Donald Trump is incompetent!

These are the same sycophants (aka "creeps") whom he personally chose and who have been captured on camera telling Trump what a fantastic president he is and what an honor it is to serve his agenda. 

(After several daunting deliberative processes challenged by several Constitutional benchmarks.....)

Two thirds of the House members and two thirds of the senators have to join the treasonous conspiracy in order to finally remove Trump from office. Does discussing the possibility of invoking the 25th amendment really amount to “illegal and treasonous” activity, as Trump and Fox News claim? (IMO, MaineWriter, #2545 would be extremely complicated to pursue. A much better idea is for the failed Donald Trump to save the United States the painful #2545 experience and just resign...yes, please, resign!)

Are there any other portions of the Constitution that Trump considers to prescribe illegal and treasonous procedures? One thing is clear. We have a president with only a vague understanding of constitutional law, and meager inclinations to follow it.

Letter echo: Shutdown (Who is responsible for the terrible government shutdown and the furlough of 800,000 federal employees? Who?)

If you have any doubts about who is responsible for all the government shutdowns, let me give you some help.

(Sadly....) Republicans despise government. Shutting down the government and putting out 800,000 workers (not to mention contractors) is simply sport. Taxes and regulations, a function of government (regulations keep you from being poisoned, robbed, etc.) are an anathema to Republicans.

There is no reason to close our government for a single made-up item that can be negotiated separately. Any competent deal maker would call that stupid. So on February 15 the Republicans do not have to shut down anything except their pay checks.
