26. Trump has been a black cloud over the US ever since his 2nd inauguration.

The cloud finally exploded into a violent storm that has torn our constitutional republic to shreds. He should be impeached or removed by the Cabinet based on the 25th amendment.

A U.S. president can be removed without impeachment primarily through Section 4 of the 25th Amendment, which allows the Vice President and a majority of the Cabinet to declare the president unfit to discharge their duties. The Vice President immediately becomes Acting President, though the president can contest this, requiring a two-thirds Congressional vote to finalize removal.


I know it won't happen, but it should if the Cabinet had an ounce of respect for the US constitution and our country.
