GOP Lawmaker Floated Possibility of Removing Trump Via 25th Amendment: Book
News - Middle East: A new book has revealed that Republican leaders had discussed the possibility of invoking the 25th Amendment to remove then-President Donald Trump following the deadly January 6, 2021 attack on Capitol Hill.
In the new book released on Tuesday titled This Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden, and the Battle for America’s Future by New York Times reporters Jonathan Martin and Alexander Burns report on how the Republicans were in an impasse on removing the president.
The book describes a virtual meeting of House Republicans on Jan. 11 after the Capitol Hill attack.
During the virtual meeting, US Rep. Dan Newhouse (Republican -Wash.) made the suggestion of removing Trump by forcing him to nominate a Vice President to take his place.
The Hill on Tuesday reported Newhouse as noting during the meeting that nobody had brought up the possibility of “invoking the 25th Amendment.”
