Vice presidential candidate JD Vance called for Democrats to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove President Biden from office in an exclusive interview alongside former President Trump that will air Monday night on Fox News.
“I think it is [a coup attempt]”Vance told Jesse Watters, speaking of efforts by many Democrats to push Biden to resign.
“There is a constitutional process, the 25th Amendment. If Joe Biden can’t run for president, he can’t hold office, and if they want to impeach him because he’s mentally incompetent, they invoke the 25th Amendment. That’s not the most politically beneficial way for Democrats to do it. If it’s a real problem, they should deal with it in the appropriate way.”

Trump responded “sort of” when asked if he thought the alleged clandestine effort to overthrow Biden was an attempted “coup.”
Speculation surrounding Biden’s re-election campaign ended Sunday when he took to social media to announce his intention to withdraw from the 2024 race and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris shortly after.
As the political earthquake approaches, Democrats have urged Biden to cede his place to new leadership to prepare for a showdown with Trump in November.

Some reports even indicated that elite Democrats, including former President Barack Obama, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., also wanted Biden out of the race.
Although the Democratic nominee remains unclear, Harris, along with California Gov. Gavin Newsom, former first lady Michelle Obama, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker and others have been frequently mentioned.
Harris’s choice for vice president, if she is nominated as a Democrat, also remains to be determined.
