The 25th Amendment gave Congress the ability to remove a president who is “unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office,” covering physical or mental incapacitation.
But this Greenland thing should be the breaking point. He wrote a message to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre making it clear that the primary reason he wants to take over Greenland is because they didn’t give him the Nobel (which he finally spelled correctly).
Trump’s approval ratings poll at around 40% overall, though only about 17% of Americans approve of Trump’s plans to annex Greenland.
I look at how the MAGA faithful are reacting, and they’re grasping for reasonable sounding excuses: We spend so much more on defense than the rest of NATO, we neeeeeeed Greenland for security, an argument that falls apart for two reasons:
1. Denmark is an ally, and we already have a base on Greenland. If we don’t think Greenland has enough troops to defend the NATO alliance, we can add as many as we want without taking over the country.
2. Trump, the mad king totally unmasked, has PUT IN WRITING why he would put American lives at risk in Greenland. It’s about the award. Once again, MAGA is asking us not to believe our eyes but buy into his twisted version of Trump’s reality.
There are people with brains who are buying into this crap. I’ve met them. They walk, talk, have families. But they are either fueling the evil that has taken hold of our country or they’re shrugging and looking the other way.
I want to address you MAGA folks directly: I know it feels wrong to abandon your party. It probably feels even more wrong to join the libtard snowflakes who are tearing apart our country and having trans athletes take over every bathroom and sports team.
We’re not asking you to embrace the things that sacrifice your values. We’re asking you to join us in saving the United States of America from destruction. Without allies, we will be defeated or become the evilest empire the world has seen.
We’re asking for a moment of combined pragmatism. Our president is broken. Maybe he was great once (I never saw it.) But he has declared war on our country and now he wants to target our allies.
He must be stopped.
The Epstein Files is a regular Bulletin column featuring Warren Epstein’s take on politics, food, the arts and whatever else is on his mind.
