I will support modifying the 25th Amendment to make clear that if a vice president lies or engages in a conspiracy to cover up the incapacity of the president of the United States if you do that with a cover up of the president of the United States its grounds for impeachment immediately and removal from Office the 25th Amendment to the Constitution creates a process for the transition of power if a president is unfit or unable to serve 25th amendment has never been used to remove a president but the committee has learned that after the attack on the US capital this was being discussed by members of President Trump's cabinet as a way of stripping the full power of the presidency from Donald Trump trump didn't necessarily think he needed to do anything more on the seventh than what he had already done on the six when he was convinced to put out a video on the 7th he I understand that he had a lot of opinions about what the context of that announcement were to entail um I had original drafted the speech where you know there were several lines didn't make it in there about Prosecuting the riers or calling them violent he didn't want that in there he wanted to put in there that he wanted to potentially pardon them um and this is just with the increased emphasis of his mindset at the time which was he didn't think that they did anything wrong he the people who did something wrong that day or the person who did something wrong that day was Mike Pence by not standing with him from what the reports were coming in there was a large concern of the 25th Amendment potentially being invoked and there were concerns about what would happen in the Senate if it was if the 25th was invoked so the primary reason that I had heard other than you know we did not do enough on the six we need to get a stronger message out there and condemn this this otherwise this will be your legacy the secondary reason to that was think about what might happen in the final 15 days of your presidency if we don't do this there's already talks about invoking the 25th Amendment you need this as cover if you don't like that then don't vote for president Trump
