It's a bigger hurdle than impeachment.

The 25th is half the cabinet PLUS 2/3 of both houses.

Impeachment is only half the house and 2/3 of the Senate.

They have their billionaire donors telling them what to do, Mike Johnson telling them what to do, Donvict
telling them to do as they're told or else. So we get an entire Epstein party who's lost and confused and
scared to death of doing anything.
