Nearly 100 Democrats in the US Congress are in favor of removing incumbent US President Donald Trump from office in the coming days. This was announced on Thursday by NBC TV channel.
According to his sources, lawmakers, in particular, are calling for the early termination of Trump’s powers through impeachment proceedings or using the 25th Amendment to the US Constitution. It assumes that the vice president becomes the head of state if the current leader cannot cope with his duties. This requires the consent of US Vice President Michael Pence.
According to the channel, this possibility was discussed with a number of US administration officials, but not with Pence himself.
