Too bad Trump can’t fire McCain. Maybe a constitutional amendment to allow Presidents to fire maverick senators would pass.

Arizona had plenty of opportunities.

I wouldn’t want a president to have that kind of power, and neither did the Founders; that’s why there is separation of powers. The voters get to say yea or any.

What about a 25th amendment applied to senators. Juan does suffer from some form of dementia, and could be removed by consensus of psych experts.

So you want an amendment to allow the president to fire senators that disagree with them?

How would you have felt if the previous president could have fired a Ted Cruz?

That is just a colossally bad idea.
