WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer on Thursday called on Vice President Mike Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution to immediately remove Trump from office, saying that if he does not act, Congress should impeach the president.

“What happened at the U.S. Capitol yesterday was an insurrection against the United States, incited by the president," Schumer said in a statement. "This president should not hold office one day longer."

"If the vice president and the Cabinet refuse to stand up, Congress should reconvene to impeach the president,” he added.

Neither sides give a *******about you, that was proven abundantly clear yesterday. You can squeal how much you hate Trump, but better realize the tribal side you're rooting for? You matter only as long as you can be taxed or hauled to a voting station.
It might be wrong today to blame both Donald Trump and his followers, acording to what we see now. What about the Republican Party and what they knew when he was elected as their candidate?
American would be looked down by the world from now on if they really have that sickingly corrupted cheating and disgusting ByeDone as their president!
