For The Umpteenth Time

It was at this point that our Founders thought the best thing to do would be to remove a mad man who has the executive office. It became more formalized with the 25th amendment, but more people now should be calling for this man’s removal. https://t.co/mXrDCqZtlt

There is only one provision for removing a President from office:

The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.

Art. II, Sec. 4. That has to be done by impeachment in the House, and trial and conviction in the Senate. WHICH HAS NEVER HAPPENED IN THE HISTORY OF THE COUNTRY. And with the likes of Fetterman in the Senate, it would take a sweep of every open GOP seat to get a Senate that MIGHT change that history.

The Congress that passed the Civil War Amendments failed to remove Andrew Johnson by one vote.

The 25th allows the President to voluntarily, and temporarily, suspend himself from the duties of the office. It gives the same power to the VP AND the majority of the Cabinet. The Trump Cabinet of Sycophants. The President can reclaim his office, even if the VP and Cabinet majority stand firm. If that happens (i.e., there is a conflict), the matter goes to Congress. If each house doesn’t back the VP’s play by at least 2/3rds, the President retakes the reins.

The 25th will serve the nation’s interests as well as Art. II, Sec. 4, ever has.

Stop looking for fairies at the bottom of the garden.

Or, to put it in a nutshell:

Constitutional lawyer here. I don't think it would violate the Constitution for the VP/Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment, but the intended constitutional remedy for this behavior is impeachment & removal. The fact that that remedy is politically impossible is a scandal and a crisis.
