He Is a Threat To the National Security of the United States - It Is Time for Him to Go

There is no doubt that Trump is a real and immediate threat to the National Security of the United States. 

He also threatens the entire international rules-based order that was established after World War II, and which has created economic prosperity and political stability for many nations ever since.

His actions threaten that order and its prosperity and security. Now is the time to remove him by any means necessary before he succeeds in creating poverty, wars and unimaginable chaos in the United States and many other countries.  

Below is a discussion of the legal means to remove him from office. While it is unlikely that any legal method will succeed, they are listed below.

Per chat GPT, in the U.S. system, there are only a few lawful ways to remove (or cause the removal of) a sitting president from office:

---

1. Impeachment and Conviction (Article II, Section 4 of the Constitution)

This is the primary constitutional removal process.

Steps:

1. House of Representatives impeaches the president by a simple majority vote (this is like an indictment).
2. Senate holds a trial.
3. Two-thirds of the Senate must vote to convict.

Result:

• If convicted, the president is removed from office.
• The Senate may also vote to disqualify the person from holding future federal office.

Grounds:

• “Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors” (a political–legal standard, not limited to criminal convictions).

2. 25th Amendment – Removal Due to Incapacity

Used when a president is unable to perform the duties of the office (physical or mental incapacity).

Section 3 (Voluntary)

• The president temporarily transfers power to the vice president by declaring incapacity (e.g., during surgery).

Section 4 (Involuntary)

• The Vice President and a majority of the Cabinet declare the president unfit.
• The Vice President becomes Acting President.
• If the president disputes it, Congress decides.
• A two-thirds vote of both the House and Senate is required to keep the president sidelined.

Result:

• This can lead to effective removal, though technically it’s a transfer of power unless incapacity is permanent.

3. Resignation

• The president may voluntarily resign at any time.
• This immediately removes them from office.
• The Vice President becomes president.

Example:

• Richard Nixon (1974)

---

4. Death

• If a president dies in office, they are removed by circumstance.
• The Vice President becomes president.

What Does NOT Remove a President

• ❌ Court rulings alone (even criminal convictions do not automatically remove a president)
• ❌ Elections (they determine future terms, not current removal)
• ❌ Public opinion or protests
• ❌ Congressional censure (symbolic only)
