Sen. Schumer Says President Trump Should Be Removed From Office Immediately

Quote:

New York Sen. Chuck Schumer wants President Donald Trump removed from office following Wednesday’s chaos at the U.S. Capitol Building.

“What happened at the U.S. Capitol yesterday was an insurrection against the United States, incited by the president. This president should not hold office one day longer,” Schumer said in a statement Thursday.

Schumer and Republican Congressman Daniel Kinzinger, of Illinios, are calling on Vice President Mike Pence to invoke the 25th amendment.

“The quickest and most effective way – it can be done today – to remove this president from office would be for the Vice President to immediately invoke the 25th amendment,” Schumer’s statement continued. “If the Vice President and the Cabinet refuse to stand up, Congress should reconvene to impeach the president.”

CBS News has learned that members of Trump’s cabinet are also discussing his potential removal.

While the discussion is ongoing, CBS reports that no formal presentation has been made to Pence.

Then Pence can pardon him.

This is late Roman Republic level bs that Trump pulled. Instigate the mob to protect your own power? Thankfully the Praetorians, legionaries, and patricians aren't on the tyrant's side this time.

Lock him up.

There is a problem with Trump leaving the White House.

The massive celebrating that's going to take place could end up super spreading.

Everybody be safe and healthy if you're going to join the many anti-Trump revellers.

How would that be a good idea? That would just send the message that sedition and insurrection are acceptable.

Is it now the time to do this? I'm gonna say it.

Hitler wanted power, Trump wants the same.

You missed the point. She's saying that's what could happen if Trump is removed.

Mike Pence could, but he has no obligation to and it would be against all good judgment. Just because he can doesn't mean he would. Is there any reason to believe it would be likely?

Besides, can't Trump pardon all of the violent insurrectionists while he's in office? Removing him from office eliminates that possibility even if it introduces the possibility that Pence might pardon him.

President's don't pay for their crimes. Democrats and Republicans are all complicit in the corruption of our system.

If Pence doesn't get the opportunity to pardon him, Biden likely will.

I'd hope Biden wouldn't be that foolish. While he certainly could there would be no benefit whatsoever, there wouldn't even be a defensible excuse like when Ford pardoned Nixon. He would just be spitting in the face of everyone who voted for him.

The benefit should be obvious: If Trump gets put on trial, the whole system gets on trial, basically. Nobody's hands are clean.

The excuse Biden will give be the same as Ford gave. We need to move on.

The whole system doesn't need to go on trial to remove Trump for his glaring mental issues.
The whole system doesn't need to go on trial to hold him criminally responsible for his obvious criminal behaviour.

I don't believe your perspective is correct.
