114. MaddowBlog-Trump's weird letter to Norway's prime minister renews 25th Amendment talk

The last time the president confronted chatter about the 25th Amendment, it was in the immediate aftermath Jan. 6.

It’s good to see at least some evidence of this returning to the fore. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

It was a message that might as well have been written in crayon. A day after Donald Trump announced new tariffs on several European countries — economic penalties that would remain in place, he said, until his demands to acquire Greenland are met — the president sent a truly ridiculous message to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store, in which the Republican suggested part of his Greenland crusade is rooted in his failure to win a Nobel Peace Prize.

In fact, according to Trump, because Norway hurt his feelings by failing to give him an award he wanted but did not earn, he no longer feels “an obligation to think purely of Peace.”.....

The senator added regarding the American president, “He isn’t OK. He’s degraded significantly in the last year and he’s about to get us into a war with our allies.” Democratic Sen. Brian Schatz of Hawaii sounded a similar note, adding, “I don’t see how you can be a serious person and not find this extremely worrisome. He is not stable at all and his reality is warped.”

One senator, however, took an additional step down the same path. HuffPost reported:

Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) is calling on President Donald Trump’s Cabinet and Vice President JD Vance to remove him from office via the 25th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution over his latest threat to Greenland. […]

‘Invoke the 25th Amendment,’ Markey replied, referring to a constitutional process by which the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet can declare a president unable to perform his duties. If the president contests that declaration, Congress would ultimately decide whether he remains in power.

....If the American president is aware of such concerns about his mental stability and fitness for office, he’s not showing it. On the contrary, hours after his bonkers message to the Norwegian prime minister reached the public, Trump leaked a private message from French President Emmanuel Macron and used his social media platform to promote weird images, including one that showed a map of the Western Hemisphere in which Greenland, Canada and Venezuela are under American control.

Lars-Christian Brask, deputy speaker of the Danish parliament, told Sky News, “If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate and the House to start to take control of the political power in America, because with this mad and erratic behavior, you have to ask the question: Is the president capable of running the United States?”

Under the circumstances, that need not be a rhetorical question.
