I wonder if Trumps own party is waiting to give him the 25th amendment bums rush when they realize ( they do already) that they can't control him????
When President-elect Donald Trump ascends to the Oval Office on Inauguration Day, one of the institutions that can serve as a check on his executive power will be the United States Congress. And although Senate Democrats will likely have some leverage in the form of the filibuster, that Congress will, for the near future, be controlled by the GOP. So a good question to ask right now is, “Will Congressional Republicans provide that vital check on potential misrule?”
To save everyone some time, I’ll spoil the ending: no. I mean, possibly yes, but probably no.
