MS NOW’s Jen Psaki has shot down any chance of President Donald Trump being removed from office via the 25th Amendment. “I have no issue with people saying they’re for invoking the 25th Amendment, but it’s not going to happen,” the former Biden White House press secretary told Stephen A. Smith on his “Straight Shooter” show. “So, it’s like, why are we spending so much time, you know?” she added. Watch the full interview on YouTube. House Democrats are seeking to create a commission that could trigger Trump’s removal from office if he is ruled unfit to serve. The president’s mental acuity has come under increasing scrutiny in recent weeks due to his behavior. He has not been publicly diagnosed with any condition. Psaki later suggested that many progressives feel, under Trump, that “their entire identity is being questioned and challenged” and that a way to “consider themselves progressive” is by having “to scream at the top of your lungs about everything that comes out of the Trump administration.” Psaki acknowledged she is “outraged by a lot of it.” “But I don’t think screaming at — about every single thing is the most constructive thing,” she warned.
