Presumptive Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer called on Vice President Mike Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove President Donald Trump from office.
“What happened at the U.S. Capitol yesterday was an insurrection against the United States, incited by the president," Schumer, D-N.Y., said in a statement on Thursday. "This president should not hold office one day longer."
Schumer joins a growing contingent of lawmakers from both parties to call for Trump's removal, either by using the 25th amendment or through impeachment.

You might wonder why they're so eager to either 25th Amendment him out or to impeach & remove him since he's obviously now going to be out in 13 days. Silly gooses...they want to make sure he can't come back in 2024 to beat them again.

This was as predictable as the sun rising. The news media yesterday presented PDT as akin to Hitler in his Berlin bunker, April 1945. It doesn't take much to see where this was leading. The question is whether political calculators will give Mike Pence the go signal. He's undoubtedly got his eye on '24...as does Cruz.

What a haughty bunch these demonrat/socialists are!
The Deep State is offended and THAT cannot be tolerated any longer!
We no longer have equal protection under the law-- we have the law of ruining the offended.
Chuck U Schumer, take a hike-- you are only afraid of what your President, Donald John Trump might declassify and show your corrupt dealings!!

If Pence does this he needs to sell his Columbus home in Indiana. He just doesn't belong here. Much as the last VP Indiana produced, Dan 'Potatoe' Quayle, whose family owned the newspaper, escaped to Arizona right after office.

The Leftist and the liberal Democrats and their media allies would love to see the wimpy establishment Republicans, who make up the Stupid Party, commit political suicide by taking illiberal action to remove President Trump from office with Trump having less that two weeks left on his Presidential term. Remember Trump has over 75 million grassroots voters, most of them Republicans, who will continue to support Trump’s “Make America Great Again” political agenda that is bound to continue on into the future.
My Congressman, a liberal Republican, was on the radio this morning saying that of all the people who forced entry to the US Capitol there appeared to be about 60 or 70 violent perpetrators who were responsible for most of the damage and violence inside the Capitol, were they legitimate Trump supporters, or were they Antifa anarchist types who had covertly infiltrated the huge demonstration supporting Trump, the Congressman was not able to say, so we will have to wait for the ongoing FBI investigation to figure that out? The Congressman went on to say that he thinks that there were about 2,000 people wandering around in the Capitol building who were not violent.

The stench of yesterday’s disaster hangs in my nose like week old road kill. Don’t they know we can spot a set-up from a mile away. That whole thing was planned, coordinates and carried out by Marxist instigators, plain as the nose on your face. Now I know how the Polish people felt when the Germans staged that fake invasion on their border that started World War II.
It breaks my heart the lengths they will go to to discredit, demolish and destroy our great President. And I don’t know what to do about it. Just hunker down and try to survive, I guess.
The one think I’m definitely going to do is go to the courthouse and register as an independent. I’m definitely through with Republicans. Forever. Spineless, whining,back-stabbing rollovers who stabbed our wonderful president in the back every chance they got. I hate them.

Why not. New America is no longer recognizable as the republic it once was, long ago. One man working mostly alone was not enough to undo close to 100 years of Marxist rot in government, and taught in schools and the media.

In my opinion the dems just want to get the 25th amendment out there so it won’t be such a surprise to the nation when they use it on Biden.

First of all: Patriots do not shoot unarmed female (or male) veterans.
What President Trump (the absolute best most productive president in American history who worked without compensation) has done is blow off the Washington man hole cover and expose the fat rat seditonist cowards operating as a congress (that includes every so-called pearl clutching man and woman in politics up there right along with the VP). Cowards, long tongued traitors, Schwartz György, CCP funded all, directly and indirectly.
What is left in this hideous rubble of a Shakespeare level farce, are 75 million relieved-off red, white and blue, patriots and a disenfranchised military.
The Republic is not dead. The Republic is seething.
MAGA

Chuck Schumer is probably afraid that Trump will declassify reams of data that show just how corrupt the previous administration was. Trump should declassify all of the information that doesn't affect national security, and let the Judicial Watch people have the first run at it.

Amazing. They still fear him. My daydream is that a loyal, patriotic group in the FBI and the military stand behind Trump and force a temporary suspension of government, impose martial law, and hold new elections, or something like that. It's not going to happen, but Chucky and the coup cabal seem to fear it might.

For 4 years these creeps have been trying to destroy Trump's efforts to help the county by turning the USA into communist China. Looks like they succeeded.

This man is DESPICABLE and now we pay the price. Say all you want, Karl Rove and Wall Street Journal, about Trump dissuading voters in Georgia from voting for Republicans, but these were/are supposedly intelligent adults who could see the forrest for the trees.

The senatorial butt-schmear has the unmitigated gall to refer to the protest that got out of hand as "an insurrection," after 4 years of continual coup attempts by the Dems. Every time I think Chucky can't get any more repulsive, he proves me wrong. He and Botox Nan go together so perfectly...

#17 is right. President Trump should release it all on an address to the nation. If for no other reason than to save his family, along with any hope of this nation surviving.

I look forward to the day when I find a fundraising solicitation in the mail from Mike Pence. I won't just shred it; I'll cut it into little pieces with scissors, then set the pieces on fire.

Schumer has been in Congress most of his life. He has never had a real job where he had to go to work every day and do things for himself. I have no respect for him at all. I wish he had at least had one job where he had to work. Why does he hate Pres. Trump so much. He says they are going to change America. I take that to mean that we will go Socialist/Communist/Globalist. To me that means that Schumer is a traitor. America is a Republic. Leave it alone.

Several years ago Dick Cheney leaned over and whispered into Patrick Leahy's ear "go f - - - yourself." Pence should replay the episode with Schmucky.
