This should be the sticking point to invoke the 25th. Officials need to be loud and make a stink about how Trump can’t tell fact from clear fiction and therefore cannot perform the duties of the office. Make the people of America see the image on the news everyday and make those on his side say out loud if they think it’s fake or real. Half of the masses will never be convinced that he lacks the morality to lead until they’re already in his camps. This is the earliest clear as day moment to act on that which cannot be held to subjective scrutiny or partisanship.

    Lol oh yes, just like diehard 2A advocates. Anyone who references 3 words of the constitution or declaration is clearly a history buff.

    Can’t be a nationalist with a 3rd-grade understanding of history. As we all know, only historians get a tattoo of “We the People” on their arm.

      I didn’t say it made him a history buff. I said your argument was dumb. You show up with that argument against anyone who doesn’t already agree with you and you’re going to get reamed.

      I’m not defending him. I’m criticizing you.

        Oh lol. Thanks, I guess. I don’t see it as a very good counter argument though. I don’t understand why you think the idea would be more powerful from someone who disagrees… because I still don’t see how “We The People” indicates he has any interest in history.

        I don’t think anyone who disagrees - who thinks shallow nationalism equates to historical investment - is ready for a productive conversation anyway.

        So I guess I’m criticizing you too.
