Lawmakers and Conservatives Urge Cabinet to Invoke 25th Amendment After Trump Iran Threats

President Trump faces growing pressure as lawmakers and conservative figures call for his removal under the 25th Amendment. The calls intensified after the president posted social media comments regarding the Iranian regime. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene demanded the 25th Amendment be invoked following these statements. She described the president's recent rhetoric as evil and madness. Other critics cited a threat to destroy a whole civilization in Iran as a reason for Vice President Vance to return to the U.S. and invoke Section 4 of the amendment. While some Republicans have spoken out against the threats, a growing list of conservatives is now publicly supporting the use of the 25th Amendment to remove the president from office.
