For all those who are not happy with my earlier post and who are expressing their belief that McCabe & Co. were breaking all kinds of laws and should be condemned for so doing by discussing the 25th Amendment in regard to Donald Trump's fitness for the presidency: It appears you are disregarding the 1st Amendment.
Mr. McCabe and his companions have every bit as much right to discuss whatever they please as do you or I, and they are just as entitled to their opinions as are you or I.
Thank goodness that's still one of our rights as American citizens.
Although, judging by some of the comments here, some would be quite happy to be rid of that right...

Not in his position as head of the FBI, which is who he was when this happened. Joe blow citizen with no power can say anything they like.
You misstate the situation when you use the term "coup" in your thread's title. McCabe and others discussed the possibility of using the 25th Amendment to the Constitution - quite legally and obviously constitutionally - because they were extremely concerned about Trump's fitness to be in office as the President of the United States. This is far different from a coup, which is an illegal overthrow of government, usually by force.
Trump wasn't incapacitated and that is what is specifically necessary. It was illegal and no amount of spin will change that fact.
Some communist will have difficulty understanding that b/c in communist countries its done all the time so they think its acceptable here. Naturally they are wrong b/c we have a different system.
I was actually in awe he went on 60 minutes and admitted this. You’re right, it’s 100% sedition and that’s what every single talking head in the media should be saying right now but of course they aren’t because they don’t like Trump. This is one of the most appalling things I’ve heard thus far in the whole DOJ debacle.
What he is saying-is simply proving that what Trump and all the conservatives have been saying for months now. That a criminal conspiracy was underway among the top "leadership" of the FBI to overturn a lawful election. He comes out on national TV and states it publicly. Too good to pass up. In all the excitement of the last few days (and being sick) I might be mistaken-but didn't Trump's new AG just get confirmed? Looks like he has some work to do.
Stretch and Page need to be questioned "on the box" concerning this as the "insurance policy" they were referring to.
Trump and the right in general has been winning a lot lately:
1 Rising approval rating
2 Public has realized that the Dems are willing to sacrifice the safety of US citizens for political gain
3 Media "screw-up" running with fake news (Covington, fake "MAGA" attack in Chicago, Buzzfeed scandal)
4 Booming economy, low unemployment
I'm hoping he doesn't burn that improvement with the "Emergency Declaration".

Not when he’s speaking with agency as he was in the case he described. He was, in that instance, not Andrew McCabe private citizen but a representative of the government, the DOJ, and the FBI. He was exploring the possibility of using the power of his office imbued to him as a representative of the government to remove a duly elected President by circumventing our laws and Constitution via drumming up a “25th amendment issue” when no such thing existed. That’s the very actions of a person engaged in sedition.
Trump is a liar, a divider, incompetent and maybe even compromised by the Russians, that's reason enough. McCabe would have saved us from years of reality TV. Let's face it, the Republicans are willing to see the country go down the drain as long as they stay in power.

Yeah, but there are certain conversations that are illegal. If we were to discuss assassinating the president (not doing so to be clear) that conversation is criminal conspiracy. Potentially the same if you are discussing using illegal means to overthrow a legal election. This could go a lot deeper than it appears, depending on who was involved, and when. We are finding out more and more that Trump has been right about a lot of these issues all along.
