It was a discussion of constitutional responsibilities, not an attempted coup, you melty snowflake.

And in light of the Orange Menace's propensity for sharting all over the Constitution, a well-warranted discussion.

Again, I haven’t seen anything about a disagreement in policy. What policy?
me either. The McCabe interview on 60 minutes tends to indicate that the concern was more closely-related to Trumps apparent ties with the Russian government. If that was the ONLY concern, the 25th clearly should not have been implicated.

If McCabe is to be believed, it sounds as if Rosenstein was simply “brainstorming“ about ways in which a hypothetical Russian agent president could be removed quickly and easily, as compared to the time-consuming process of impeachment.

Would it have been in than improper use of the 25th? Of course. But if Trump HAD BEEN an actual Russian agent, I think we would have forgiven Rosenstein. (no, I do not think he was a Russian agent)

Yeah, well words like Treason and Coup are heavy words that are based on what is in the best interest of the USA. The personal interests of the POTUS do not always define the best interests of the USA.

Since the coup was being planned even before he was president, how would anyone know this numbnuts?

If you were talking about the discussions concerning the 25th amendment, you should probably take note of the fact that Rosenstein was already in place, as well as McCabe. Further, they were “counting heads” among the members of Trumps cabinet. Clearly all of this took place AFTER the inauguration.

I don’t think Trump was a Russian agent, either. He unwittingly assisted Putin’s goals of tearing down our democracy. I think he just had so many conflicts of interest with his personal dealings that he chose to put those ahead of the USA.

Obama, Hillary, the Dems and the MSN did and are still doing a great job of this!

Meh Petey and company lead me to believe it started well prior to the inauguration.

Also remember this was in May of 2017...barely 5 months into his presidency.

Trump wasn’t able to get the concentration camps built until the beginning of 2018 because he listened to Paul Ryan and tried to eliminate Obamacare...remember?

Be careful what you are saying in these times comrade. It may be illegal. This country doesn't belong to us anymore, we are full Weimar now.

There was not a attempted coup.

“Attempted” means they would have tried and failed. Talking about the 25th Amendment is not a coup

The MSM conspired against Bernie for HRC and against Trump in the general election. Of course they’re ok with anything to take down MAGA

In fairness, it WAS her turn. We were duly informed of this immutable fact.
