\r\n\r\nWashington, D.C.<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014\u00a0In response to\u00a0President Trump\u00a0announcing\u00a0his\u00a0intent\u00a0to\u00a0commit war crimes on social media<\/a>, Common Cause calls on our military to refuse any illegal order and his Cabinet and Vice President Vance to invoke the 25th Amendment immediately and begin succession planning.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n\r\nThe evidence is clear: Donald J. Trump is unfit to lead, and he no longer possesses the mental faculties required to faithfully execute his duties as President and Commander in Chief of the United States. Should the Cabinet and Vice President refuse to fulfill their duty to our country, Congress should immediately return to town and begin impeachment proceedings to remove President Trump from office.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n\r\nStatement from Common Cause President & CEO Virginia Kase Solom\u00f3n:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n\r\nThreatening\u00a0genocide\u00a0if\u00a0a\u00a0president\u2019s\u00a0demands are not met is\u00a0not\u00a0normal\u00a0or American.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n\r\nPosting profanity-laced\u00a0rants\u00a0on social media in place of traditional diplomacy\u00a0isn\u2019t\u00a0normal.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n\r\nLabeling veterans who\u00a0reaffirm\u00a0servicemembers\u00a0should\u00a0defy illegal orders and uphold the Constitution as \u2018traitors\u2019\u00a0isn\u2019t\u00a0normal.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n\r\nRoutinely\u00a0rebuking\u00a0basic facts and being unable to speak coherently on a single topic for more than a few minutes\u00a0isn\u2019t\u00a0normal.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n\r\nPresident\u00a0Trump\u2019s\u00a0increasingly\u00a0erratic\u00a0behavior\u00a0is putting our country and American lives\u00a0in danger.\u00a0He\u00a0is\u00a0putting\u00a0the\u00a0world in danger.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n\r\nThis is no longer a policy debate \u2013 it is a test of our patriotism and our commitment to our nation, not any political party. Will our elected leaders uphold the Constitution, or will they cower in fear?\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n\r\nFailure to act is not an option. It\u2019s time for the Cabinet to fulfill its moral and constitutional duties to immediately invoke the 25th Amendment. Every minute that our leaders wait is a threat to our country and our democracy.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
