Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., a 2020 candidate for president, on Sunday endorsed the idea of President Trump's team invoking the 25th Amendment to remove him from office if the circumstances call for it.
“My point here is that if they believe that Donald Trump cannot fulfill the obligations of his office, then they have a constitutional responsibility to invoke the 25th Amendment,” Warren said during a press conference following a campaign rally in Las Vegas. “Their loyalty under law is not to him personally. It is to the Constitution of the United States and to the people of United States.”
Warren, a frequent target of Trump's due to her dubious claims to Native American ancestry, is increasingly defining herself as the 2020 candidate who uses provocative comments to counter the president's bellicose brand of rhetoric. For instance, Warren told an Iowa crowd last week Trump "may not even be a free person" by the time the 2020 election comes around.

HOW?
(sorry that may be culturally inappropriate)
“they believe that Donald Trump cannot fulfill the obligations of his office”
Based on what?
The 25th Amendment is strictly about physical health of the president. We shouldn’t get in the habit of invoking it whenever someone disagrees with the president. Doing that would prove elections no longer matter in the U.S.
Liawatha on warpath, wants Trump’s scalp.
So President Trump is going to figuratively scalped by a fake Indian.
You win the internets today.
Shame on Massachusetts for foisting this fraud on the nation. It’s a pity that the Founders didn’t give states the right to kick the states with such ignorant voters out of the Union.
This was an ATTEMPTED COUP, plain and simple.
Would she have said the same about OBAMA?....................
I’ve always wondered why senators running for president are allowed to continue drawing their Senate salary while they aren’t doing the job they were elected to do. They should be required to resign or, at the very least, be put on leave without pay.
LMAO!!!
This woman reminds me of that old saying “he/she’s so stupid they shoot a toe off and reload and shoot another one off”.
Hasn’t anyone explained to ANY of these Democratic Morons that TO WIN they have to get some votes from “the other side”.
The key word here is “IF” and in that sense, she’s right. But there isn’t currently a reason and she knows that. She also knows the media will report it and that people will discuss it like we are doing here. And she knows that.
More proof that Warren is a Marxist lunatic, IMO.
They can’t remove him based on the 25th. They’re just sure that most Americans think it says something like...”the President has to leave if we don’t like him”. And most Americans are stupid enough to think that.
West Wing had 2 episodes about it when President Bartlett asked to be temporarily relieved by the 25th when his daughter was kidnapped.
You phrase that very politely.
Invoking the 25th short of objective incapacitation would invoke civil war.
Liawatha join others from the Com/Mao/Che tribe in supporting Hail Mary pass. Say, ‘Let’s win one for Gaia’
