Could be a different world if the 25th amendment established the electorate's right to a recall vote, rather than assigning the VPOTUS and/or Congress the task of deciding that the POTUS cannot fulfil his/her duties.
To be honest, I'm not that sad, though, that the 25th Amendment basically requires Caesar's friends to be ready to make a circle and stab him. If nothing else, it ensures that it's unlikely to be invoked because a POTUS is unpopular (or stupid, or tweets too much, and so on).
Some states have recall provisions -- I guess I'm remembering California? -- and really, I'm starting to wish that Canada had them. On the one hand, they can provide a means by which an electorate can halt the damage done by an ineffective or dishonest leader. On the other, a recall vote can restore legitimacy to a leader under scrutiny. Obviously we cannot have six of them per term, but if reasonable conditions are met, I think they are a good thing. It would mean that no leader could simply take their four years of power for granted.
I'm not suggesting to invoke the 25th amendment just because people hate him. I'm suggesting it because the man is mentally ill and that's why this amendment exists.
It has nothing to do with changing election results. He's bat shit crazy. He needs help. Although at his age,he'll never change.He's a deluded lying narcisssistic megalomaniac at the least. He lives in his own personal reality where the real world is 'fake' because it doesn't fit his view of the world.
It also has to do with the people he chooses to run major departments. Talk show hosts,high school kids,wedding planners,hs own personal pilot etc.. etc..
He's just not fit to be leading a fast food (his favourite one too,McDonald's) kitchen,never mind leading a country,any country but in this case he's leading the world's police. He's the most unqualified President in the history of the US. Going back to the days when they were 13 colonies.
Look up my post above you. I have links to news outlets proving that he is an incompetent idiot who will give you a high position in the government if you simply compliment him. (see links above)
Now he has proven to the world tha he lives in a fantasy world. That's not hyperbole. Now he's publicly declaring that he would have ran into the school,even without a gun, to protect the children. (long pause)
He's a delusional pathological liar and a sociopath. I think that alone should get him booted out of office.
Unfortunately,his picks for the administration ensures the Presidency remain insane. He gets booted and Mike Pence becomes President. He's a complete nut too.
The only thing more mentally ill than Trump is the people that support him. In short,the US is a very,very sick and mentally ill country as a whole.
And I wouldn't care if not for the fact that we are physically attached to that insane asylum.
