The former Central Intelligence Agency director John Brennan has added his name to growing calls for the president to be ousted on grounds that he is unfit for the job, arguing that the US constitution’s 25th amendment addressing involuntary removal from office was “written with Donald Trump in mind”.
Brennan, who served as head of the spy agency during Barack Obama’s presidency, told MS Now on Saturday that Trump’s recent volatile remarks about destroying Iranian civilization and the danger he posed to so many lives merited his removal from the Oval Office.
“This person is clearly unhinged,” he said. “I think the 25th amendment was written with Donald Trump in mind.”
Brennan added that Trump was too much of a liability to be allowed to continue to be commander in chief. He had immense firepower at his disposal, including the US nuclear arsenal.
We don’t need Trump removed and replaced with another right wing Luddite. The whole diseased Republican party and everything they currently stand for needs to be done away with. The rot is not one man, The rot goes all the way to the core. Trump just gave the others the permission and validation to more openly be as vile as they previously were in private.
The Democratic party are no saints, but there is at least a chance of turning them around with the right people, policies, and regulations.
The Republican party, and anyone openly and proudly that still calls themselves among their members, is a lost cause.
What do you mean with this usage of the word Luddite, I’m confused? The Luddites were left wing populists. Moreover the modern day right wing are supposed technocrats desiring to leverage AI both as a mechanism of control and as a justification for the extraction of oil, coal, natural gas, and water in their war against the land.
