>Hey Americans this might be a good time to do something about that lunatic you put into office. You're the ones constantly bleating on about keeping government power in check, don't you think this is an opportunity to put your money where your mouth is? The world is watching, and judging.
That's all true. And we even have a mechanism for removing said lunatic. We call it the 25th Amendment[0] to our constitution. The only problem with using that mechanism is that the folks who are in line to succeed[1] the aforementioned lunatic are at least as un-serious, and are, in many cases, religious zealots who see nuclear war in the Middle East[2] as bringing on the second coming of their imaginary sky daddy.
As an American, I'd be even more afraid if a jackass like J.D. Vance became president, and heaven help us all if Mike Johnson or Marco Rubio became president. Or how about Scott Bessent or Pete Hegseth. Yeesh! Scary stuff!
