Trump’s latest ‘temper tantrum’ sparks calls for removal from office: ‘Insane’

[PoliTalker]

Hello Dutch Uncle,

All there needs to be is, IIRC, 2/3s majority to agree to conviction. It's clear all the Democrats would vote for it so now it's a matter of enough Republicans growing a spine.

No impeachment should be initiated unless the votes for conviction in the Senate are already there. Otherwise it just undermines the Constitution and shows it's weakness.

Agreed.

The good news is that Trump is getting more erratic and unstable. The 25th Amendment would be a good option too.

Trump claims Norway's PM can sway the Nobel prize so he could get one. He knows nothing about how it is awarded. He says stupid thing after stupid thing. Trump is an idiot.

Idiot with a capitol "I".

I think we all should box up our trophies from grade school, middle school and high school and send them to Trump. He needs acknowledgement and participation trophies.

Great idea.

As we watch Trump fail almost everywhere as civilization continues to break down I am taking a new look at the theory that the oligarchs installed Trump to drive civil war...on the road to our enslavement.

President Donald Trump’s letter to Norway’s prime minister led social media critics and political foes to demand Trump’s removal from office, with many arguing he is not fit to serve.

In the letter to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, Trump linked his stance on annexing Greenland to his outrage over not receiving a Nobel Peace Prize, numerous news outlets reported. Gahr Støre confirmed the authenticity of the letter in a statement, according to reports.

The reported letter stated, in part: “Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America.”

“The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland,” the letter concluded.

The letter was first reported by PBS. It comes after Trump has complained for months about not receiving a Nobel Peace Prize and has repeatedly mused about taking over Greenland — a territory owned by NATO member country Denmark.

Social media exploded over the reported letter, with many calling for the 25th Amendment to be invoked to remove Trump from office. Under the 25th Amendment, the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet could vote to remove a president who is “unable to fulfill duties.”

The Lincoln Project’s Rick Wilson said on X that Trump‘s “new gigantic temper tantrum over Norway is deep into 25th Amendment territory.” He said at this point, the 25th Amendment “is far in the rearview mirror and we are descending further into madness by the moment.”

Democratic strategist Chris D. Jackson said that the letter was “impeachable.”

“The guy is simply too unstable to be president,” he added.

Political commentator Ed Krassenstein described the letter as “insane.”

Why would Norway leak the alleged letter?

I call bullshit.

Why? Impeachment is a Congressional power. The Senate has to hold a trial if a person is impeached. But determining if he committed serious crimes is all the House has to do. They do not have the power to poll the Senators.

The OP in this thread makes zero sense. For the Left and Trump's detractors, the second he was reelected was the second they started calling for his removal from office. Just because the reason changes periodically is not the point. The Left HATES Trump and wants him gone. The reason is just window dressing.

I disagree. If the House considers the conduct of the President or any other officers over whom they have impeachment power...they should impeach regardless of whether there are sufficient votes for conviction in the Senate.

There should be a presumption of innocence proteted...and doing what you suggested would injure that presuption.

Trump previously was impeached (twice!) in his first term.

The reason is that paresis has broken into Trump's brain pan.

There is wisdom in the maxim "avoid jumping the gun" along with "have all of your ducks in a row".

Yes he SHOULD be removed from office. He's a traitor who tried to overturn a free and fair election violently. He's literally a convicted felon.

You trumptard scum call Democrats "lawless"!

You have zero legs to stand on, Teresa.

Terry thinks this is all ok. He doesn't realize that trump's thug administration is living by the totalitarian model: "We're lying. We know you know we're lying - but you will accept what we say or we will kill you" <--- this is precisely how @T. A. Gardner and those like him feel.

Traitor Terry has openly betrayed his oath and his service.
