In civilized countries don't they call that a coup d'état?

This will continue, and worsen, for as long as Trump personally attacks individuals in the media from his bully pulpit.
I see American Politics through pretty clear glasses. I am a Conservative/Republican; I have supported Mr. Trump from the beginning. I am one of the first to call him out on the bad/wrong that he does.
This is beyond nutz! They have only one reason to do what they are doing, HATRED! Pure and simple Hate! I do not agree with all that he has said; some of his tweets are disgusting and very unprofessional. That is as far as I will go in agreement with these anti-American, Trump hating assholes.
They are jealous and full of hatred, they are small little people who cannot get over their lose!
This is almost Treasonous. Actually, I believe it is an act of treason. Pure scum~!

There would be nothing quiet about it.
If they tried, it would take a heartfelt request from Trump himself to prevent a "storming of the bastille" type event. Maybe that would be enough, maybe.....

They lost me at Pelosi wanting to declare someone else as incapacitated.

Let them do it! Let them do it and bear witness to their own hastily brought but over due and dually deserved demise. If they actually tried it, this country would explode and all the quiet conservatives and constitutionalists who've thus far taken all the BS from the left, won't be quiet and peaceful anymore.
Removing Trump from office will trigger a civil war.

The left keeps crying for a revolution. You think the folks on MSNBC will be on the front line ... NO they will just promote it. .. Hope for better ratings Even a few small skirmishes in some out of the way city could have a serious effect on the ability to purchase a handgun and ammo. .. And Schumer will be dancing in the street... A huge anti gun wave would sweep Washington ..My line of thinking.
That's fine. There is such a thing as counter partizan ops targeting subversive elements in the rear.
I went to "like" this post because I agree with it. But thought again that there is nothing to like in the idea of a 2nd civil war...
I while heartedly think of they remove trump fro office all f(kng hell will break loose and there is no going back once the genie is out of the bottle.

The irony is Pelosi thinks Trump said something stupid.

I can't see why the dems are so wound up over a boarder wall/immigration/Obama care/tax reform.
Wether its voter fraud or democratic corruption or whatever else he's working on thats pissing them off but isn't getting any press, I hope he keeps it up.

From the article:
"The commission would be a nonpartisan panel appointed by congressional leaders composed of four physicians, four psychiatrists and three others — such as former presidents, vice presidents or other former senior U.S. government officials."
Now that is laughable. If you think the panel would be nonpartisan I have a bridge to sell you. Every psychiatrist in the country is a flaming leftie and are probably all on record as declaring trump unfit for office. I am sure the democrats would be able to find 4 left wing doctors.
Nothing will happen on this as long as the republicans control the house. If the republicans vote for it, then it is a clear signal that a coup is quite possible. I shudder to think at the level of violence that will occur if trump is removed from office. Someone said we are already in a cold war version of the second civil war. I think there is some truth to that statement. Something like this could become the spark that turns it into a real civil war.

Raskin is a nutjob. He tries to be a cheap Pelosi look-alike, act-alike, talk alike but he makes her look like a moderate based on his shenanigans from the farthest left liberal wing of the Maryland State house. Only a handful of districts could elect such a loon to office. Even in the all Democratic 8th Md district he got less than 1/3 of the primary vote on Bernie's coat tails. Now he is just spinning some wheels to make noise for himself. It can't happen.

Its their power base, voteing block. To many democratic Americans are not going along with the ""democratic""( socialist) program
they need new , ignorant people from third world nations to offset that and retain their power.
In a few more years Texas will be a blue state due to the massive numbers of Mexicans settling there. Its changing the the demographics of the region .
If they lose foreigners they lose votes .they lose votes, they lose power. They are subverting the country.

That's how I feel on a regular basis. I've been asked what party i'm for. It's become such a loaded question these days that I know several people who could potentially be violent based on these sorts of things. It's better to not give people specifics, and being more secretive seems to be safer. I TRULY believed that there was going to be a sort of "civil war" within the first 3 months Trump was in office...

25th Amendment, Section 4
Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.
Ummm....for Congress to create a law, to empower a panel, wouldn't it have to be signed by the President at issue? And.... wouldn't he refuse to sign such a bill? Of course!

Amendments to the constitution require a majority in congress and/or 2/3rds of the states. I don't think the executive has any say. Amendments are different from Bills.

They may think they won't be on the front lines, but a modern civil war in the US would look nothing like anything these guys can conceive.
The "front lines" would be at the "green zone" checkpoints in every major city.

ALL good points, but DO NOT forget the enemy within.
Do not think for a second that the GOP elites do not fantasize over a President Pence while giving handjobs to globalists.
If the GOP were serious about advancing OUR agenda with Trump, they would shut down the Special Counsel's purview and phony "investigation," go after the Deep State, and fund Trump's Border Wall.
Never forget that Paul Ryan and McConnel had far more in common with Hillary's platform (e.g., passing TPP and other unfair trade agreements, fomenting war with Syria, open borders, amnesty for illegals, etc.) than with candidate Trump.

No...no.....
The amendment states that Congress may by law empower an alternative panel. No new amendment is needed.
