19. I know fhe o.p. is about the 25th amendment, but I've had my mind set on impeachment for a while now.

I keep hearing that Republicans in Congress are getting fed up with him, the latest insane thing he's done is the last straw, etc., etc. But nothing happens. Then a week or 2 later, I'm hearing the same thing again, and still nothing happens. And on and on it goes. And here we still are.

I don't know what it would take to get the GOP to grow a spine and deal with him appropriately, but that is what I'd LIKE to see happen. Meanwhile, although the 25th amendment would absolutely be justified, I don't think Vance has the cojones to call for it, and I have even less faith in that box full of misfit toys that Schlump calls his cabinet to do the right thing.

It sucks beyond belief that no one who has actually been empowered by the Constitution is willing to DO anything. That is the worst part of this whole stinking mes, afaic: that we have to sit by helplessly while all those who might be able to do anything resolutely decline to do so.

My message to all Republicans in the House and Senate:
