Top Senate Democrat Chuck Schumer demands Trump be removed with 25th Amendment

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York called for President Trump to be removed from office with the invocation of the 25th Amendment or impeachment.

"What happened at the U.S. Capitol yesterday was an insurrection against the United States, incited by the president. This president should not hold office one day longer," Schumer said in a Thursday statement. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called for President Donald Trump to be removed from office either with the 25th Amendment or with impeachment.

"The quickest and most effective way — it can be done today — to remove this president from office would be for the Vice President to immediately invoke the 25amendment," he said. "If the Vice President and the Cabinet refuse to stand up, Congress should reconvene to impeach the president."

Get it done!

Any Republican that does not get on board with this should be considered a terrorist sympathizer. Our national security is at risk.

Hi, small question: if Trump is removed then Pence becomes POTUS, but then, who becomes VP pro-tempore? Pelosi? The guy that looks like a frog? Shaq?

Constitutional violations by the executive branch should be handled as an Article 1 duty. This isn't optional. Congress can and should move swiftly to punish this lawless president by impeachment, conviction, and removal from office. By the close of business. T.O.D.A.Y.

A Democrat! Wonderful!

Trump Betrayed his Oath to the Office of the President. Trump incited Violence against the Capital and Our Country. He should be Removed from Office Immediately. Let the CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS BEGIN

Or they can just impeach

Nothing like putting salt on an open wound. I wouldn’t want to be your child. Loser

Just keep pouring more gasoline on the fire.
