The former president of the United States is now reportedly speculating as to why Republicans have not attempted to remove President Biden in accordance with the 25th Amendment.

Trump has urged House Republicans to launch an impeachment investigation into Biden on several occasions.

“After seeing what has happened to our beautiful USA in such a short period of time, including Afghanistan, Self Imposed Inflation, Energy Independence, the Horrors of the Open Border, NO VOTER I.D., & now, 6 Billion Dollars for 5 Hostages from Iran,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social Platform.

“I ASK, WHY HASN’T THE REPUBLICAN PARTY BEGUN THE PROCESS OF INVOKING THE 25th AMENDMENT AGAINST THE WORST & MOST INCOMPETENT PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES, CROOKED JOE BIDEN? With these facts, they would have done it to us long ago!” he continued.

The 25th Amendment states that the vice president and the Cabinet can vote to remove a sitting president if the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.

A president can only be removed from office by Congress by being impeached in the House and being found guilty in the Senate.

The proposal was nonetheless frequently brought up by Democrats during the Trump administration, and it was reportedly considered by members of his Cabinet following the attack on the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

Just hours after the violent crowd stormed the Capitol, members of the House Judiciary Committee wrote to then-Vice President Mike Pence requesting that he utilize the 25th Amendment to remove Trump from office.

At the time, Pence, who is now vying for the GOP presidential candidacy in 2024, chose not to use the amendment.
