Recently, a small group of U.S. senators publicly called for Donald Trump to be removed from office using the Twenty-Fifth Amendment, citing controversy over his proposal to assert U.S. control over Greenland and concerns about his leadership. Senator Ed Markey and several fellow Democrats argued that the amendment exists for situations in which a president is believed to be unable to carry out the duties of the office. The Twenty-Fifth Amendment provides a constitutional process allowing the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet to declare a president unfit, temporarily transferring power. However, it has never been used to remove a sitting president, and constitutional scholars note that such a move would require cooperation from the vice president and most Cabinet members — making it unlikely without significant bipartisan support.
