Steve Bannon is saying that Donald Trump has only a 30% chance of completing his term.

And if that is not shocking enough, he has told Trump that it is not impeachment he has to worry about, but removal via the 25th Amendment because he is mentally deranged and voted as such by his own Cabinet.

from the linked article

Even before Corker’s remarks, some West Wing advisers were worried that Trump’s behavior could cause the Cabinet to take extraordinary Constitutional measures to remove him from office. Several months ago, according to two sources with knowledge of the conversation, former chief strategist Steve Bannon told Trump that the risk to his presidency wasn’t impeachment, but the 25th Amendment—the provision by which a majority of the Cabinet can vote to remove the president. When Bannon mentioned the 25th Amendment, Trump said, “What’s that?” According to a source, Bannon has told people he thinks Trump has only a 30 percent chance of making it the full term.

With each passing day, the idea is being floated more and more that Trump is mentally ill and not fit for office. And Bannon seemed to recognize the possibility months ago.

Do it and see how that works out. That will create an unrepairable divide in this country.

25th Amendment, impeachment, being run out of town on a rail - whatever it takes.

Honestly, it's being said that he is unstable, and unraveling.

Duh. We knew this months ago. We knew this before the election.

Wow. Another anonymous source.

Fact is trump will complete his term. The Republican Congress wouldn’t impeach even if trump was found to be ****ing an underage teen. The only hope would be dem congress in 2018 and that won’t happen because the DNC hasn’t learned a damned thing from the last election. Trump will be a one term president though.

A Republican VP, along with a majority of Cabinet to invoke the 25th.

Section 4.

Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.

Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.
 
Fake news!

TDS!

Lying liberal media using anonymous sources!

I hope I didn't miss any of the standard responses.

If y'all want to try to commit treason again, go for it. Ask the Confederacy how that went for them.
 
You think it's unrepairable?

For some time to come, yes. Do you think all the cockroaches are going to simply crawl back under their rocks once Trump is gone? Nope. They will not. They are here to stay, and will be here for a while. The GOP is, I am afraid, fatally damaged, and it will take a very long time to get it back to where it once was. If it can ever get there.

Hell, there's not just a divide between the right and the left, there is also a pretty sizeable divide between the right and the alt-right.

I'm not disputing that it's a legal provision. If it's evoked to unseat trump you will 60 something million American revolt. Being provocative does not justify removing him. There is zero reason for those that voted for him to obey the gov if the gov refuses to honor their votes. That would be a betrayal that would result in a revolt.

Be careful what you wish for you might not get what you thought you would from it

Using the 25th Amendment it would be other conservatives.
The GOP are not conservatives that's why trump is the potus and none of them are. In either case it don't matter who unseat Trump it will set off a chain of events that will lead to nothing good.

Crushing treasonous rebels is what any American would want.

The thugs known as the "militia movement" are no match for the US military.

So basically, the guys that you guys voted in kicks out another guy you guys voted in and you guys will rebel against the first set of guys you voted in?

As opposed to now?

Having a mental deranged person with his hands on the nuclear codes if far more important than any concern about future division as it could mean the end of our nation and the world as we know it.

Did you ever hear of Bersnstien and Woodward?

How about Nixon and Watergate?

The source is only anonymous to you and I. It was well known to the author of the article and the editors who vetted it for accuracy. That is how journalism works and there is no real alternative.

But you are a smart cookie and I think you know that.

A big part of me says you are right.

A different part of me hopes you are wrong.

Removing Trump would be done by Republicans and people Trump himself appointed. Who are the 60 million going to attack over that? The "deep state"? Where's that, anyway?

There aren't 60 million people in the InfoWars Army, the oath keepers, the 3 percenters, and any other group that makes a lot of noise anonymously online combined.

As for division, it's been here for a long time. The media is making a ton of money fanning the flames, and Trump himself is a worse offender than anyone except maybe Limbaugh. And Limbaugh had a 25 year head start.

As long as he doesn't scare them too much and he signs what they send him, Trump will stay. The fact that repubs can't seem to send Trump anything to sign is on them.:mrgreen:
