VP Pence will NOT invoke the 25th Amendment, hasn’t even “engaged in discussions”

Vice President Pence will not invoke the 25th Amendment to remove President Trump from office following Wednesday’s attacks on the Capitol, according to multiple reports

Reports indicate that most of the Cabinet agree with the Vice President’s decision. The President has 12 days left on his term.

Speaker Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Schumer were on the phone waiting for the Vice President to demand he invoke the 25th, something they wanted since 2016. He allegedly left them on hold for 25 minutes. A staffer finally told them he would not be getting on the phone.

According to The Hill, calls for the 25th Amendment to be invoked came amid fears that Trump would incite more violence following the riots that damaged parts of the Capitol and left four people dead. However, it’s more likely the hate and vengeance that we witnessed for the past four years is the impetus.

PENCE NEVER ENGAGED ON THE ISSUE

“Not happening,” said a Republican close to Pence when asked about the increased calls for him to replace Trump, according to Insider.

While the media is giving the impression that Pence would do it if there was more time left, that does not appear to be the case. He hasn’t even engaged in discussions on the issue.

The New York Times later confirmed the news, reporting that a person close to the vice president said Pence is opposed to invoking the 25th with less than two weeks until Biden’s inauguration.

When contacted by The Hill, a White House official said Pence has not engaged in discussions on the 25th Amendment.

When our external enemies make their move it will be over in a matter of hours and they will just bypass the mountain regions because the cost won’t be worth the Pyrrhic victory.
They can see what a useful idiot fifth column of traitors is working to burn it all down by any means necessary.
The only ones who can’t are those unable to deal with reality or too afraid to accept facts.

Just when you think Pelosi can’t even become more bat sh*t crazy……………….“This morning, I spoke to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley to discuss available precautions for preventing an unstable president from initiating military hostilities or accessing the launch codes and ordering a nuclear strike,”“The situation of this unhinged President could not be more dangerous, and we must do everything that we can to protect the American people from his unbalanced assault on our country and our democracy,”
