Their job is to go after criminals.

We shouldn't have a criminal in the oval office.

Just FYI.

50 years from now, methinks history will be on the side of McCabe.

25th Amendment. The 25th Amendment, proposed by Congress and ratified by the states in the aftermath of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, provides the procedures for replacing the president or vice president in the event of death, removal, resignation, or incapacitation.

Learning is good.
Who's lying ? McCabe, or Rosenstein, who denied those discussions happened. If McCabe's honest ...,

We know Trump didn't die, resign, or removed. Per McCabe, "what I can say is the deputy attorney general was definitely very concerned about the president, about his capacity, and about his intent at that point in time." McCabe's account of the discussions never spoke about Trump being incapacitated. The discussions were about Russia, Comey, Russia, Russia, Russia.

The hope was they could convince enough Cabinet members that Trump was a Russian agent or at the least, making decisions based on Russian influence.

Did Rosenstein deny the discussions took place?

Trump supporters....opinions? Why didn't Devin Nunes & Mitch McConnell, two of Trump's biggest supporters, object when briefed by FBI that they would be investigating Trump? The very same investigation that Trump is calling a "coup."

It seems that the only Republican supporting Trump is Lynsey Graham, I see him and only him on FOX. Every other Republican, Democrat, the main stream media, and the deep state are plotting against him.

Calling it what it is, McCabe and crew acted unprofessionally and outside of standard behavior expected of Government Employees in their positions.

Whether or not they felt they had reason, they should not have been batting it about. There are times to just keep you mouth shut and your eyes open. And he is already walking it back.

Given that a Special Counsel is/was investigating as is/was the Inspector General, this would have been the time to let that unfold. Any unsuitable character worthy of removal will come out in the wash

Congress is representing the people and has every right to jump in, oversight, or investigate representing the people. McCabe and company do not represent the people, they execute/accomplish/administer.

So i wouldn't debate the term coup or mutiny or anything. For a fact they were unprofessional and out of line.

Just so to clear and we all understand your thinking..........


You're saying that LITERALLY, every elected official in Washington DC except for Lindsey Graham, is plotting against Donald Trump?

Please oh please tell me that's what you're saying.

Section 4 of the 25th Amendment.

Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.

Unfortunate? Sure, Unprofessional? Indeed. Coup attempt? Hardly.
