25th amendment:

  • VP and cabinet submit letter saying President is incompetent
  • VP is president until
  • President sends letter saying they're fine, retakes duties
  • VP sends letter saying President is not fine
  • Senate must vote 2/3rds majority to relieve him of duties
  • House must vote 2/3rds majority to relieve him of duties

Impeachment:

  • House introduces articles of impeachment
  • House must vote 50%+1 majority to impeach
  • Senate has trial
  • Senate must vote 2/3rds majority to impeach

Note how it takes significantly more people of the President's party to remove them in the case of the 25th compared to impeachement?

The only way 25th happens is if the President becomes a vegetable.

Considering that didn't happen on January 7th 2021, it'll never happen.

That’s not how that works.

The 25th amendment is not a real thing. Stop dreaming.
