The latest attempts of the Democrats to undermine the 2016 Election this week would come in the form of referencing the 25th Amendment and the President’s supposed mental deficiencies. Many of Trump’s critics would use this as reasoning to remove him from office such as California Representative, Ted Lieu.

He would cite the Framers who designed the 25th Amendment to remove an “unstable, impulsive, unraveling” President.

This statement shows the Congressman’s complete lack of understanding of the basic American history and our constitution.

The last Framer to die was our fourth President, James Madison on June 28th, 1836.

The Twenty-Fifth Amendment however was proposed on July 5th, 1965 and officially adopted February 10th, 1967.

So don’t worry Congressman, you were ONLY off by 120 years!

But I digress. The point of the amendment was to remove someone in case of an emergency resulting in the incapacity of the office holder.

An example sited during the ratification of the Amendment was Woodrow Wilson. During his tenure, he had a stroke that had shortly put him in a coma. During this time, First Lady Edith Wilson would take over his duties, covering up her husband’s condition.

In September 1955, President Eisenhower would have a heartattack that left him unable to fulfil his duties. In his place, his Vice President Richard Nixon would preside his cabinet meetings and regulate his administration.

The Twenty-Fifth Amendment was passed in the midst of the Cold War, when there was always imminent fear of a nuclear war. It is easy to see why such a threat was taken so seriously, as it is still on some levels today. To address such situations, Congress created a backdoor option in case of a catastrophic event occurring with the President.

Nowadays, people who despise Trump are trying to misinterpret the constitution to include negligible things such as a ‘tweet’ they disapproved of is sickening. The Left’s unwillingness to accept the results of our Democratic Election is evident and speaks a lot of how far they will go to remove Trump from office.
