National Association of Manufacturers asks Pence to ‘seriously consider’ invoking 25th Amendment, while a group comprising powerful CEOs calls for U.S. officials ‘to facilitate the peaceful transition of power.’

Business leaders called for a peaceful transition of power after President Donald Trump’s supporters stormed into the Capitol building on Wednesday, with at least one group calling for the invocation of the 25th Amendment to remove the president.

Timmons — who has previously voiced support for Trump’s policies, including corporate tax cuts and a trade battle with China — even suggested that Vice President Mike Pence should consider using Constitutional powers to evict Trump from office. “Today marks a sad and shameful chapter in our nation’s history,” Cook tweeted Wednesday night. “Those responsible for this insurrection should be held to account, and we must complete the transition to President-elect Biden’s administration. It’s especially when they are challenged that our ideals matter most.”

Activist investor Bill Ackman, founder of Pershing Square Holdings, tweeted Wednesday night that Trump should resign. The mob’s actions come as some businesses reel from the effects of the coronavirus pandemic while others have thrived. An example of an industry that has been deeply affected by the pandemic is travel.
