It’s safe to say President Donald Trump uses social media to provoke more than anything else, and a new post Sunday morning achieved just that. He tweeted a wrestling video in which he “beats up” CNN, which lead a former White House lawyer to call for his removal under the 25th Amendment.

And the response by Norm Eisen, former U.S. Ambassador to the Czech Republication, and White House Special Counsel under President Barack Obama.

Trump’s video is edited footage stemming from his honest-to-God actual appearance at Wrestlemania 23 in 2007 (It’s a whole thing). Anyway, the president’s tweet is an obvious swipe at CNN, who recently retracted a story claiming the Senate Intelligence Committee was investigating one of his campaign advisers. This was part of their probe into alleged collusion with Russia during the 2016 campaign.

It’s not the first time critics called for Trump’s removal under the 25th Amendment. Last time this happened was all the way back in the distant past of just last Thursday. Mean-spirited tweets directed at Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski caused some social media users to argue he was unfit for office, constitutionally speaking.

1. He's not crazy, incompetent or stupid. Ask Putin.

Benchmark for crazy: He steps on Putin.

With all the terrible things Trump has done, he has yet to turn his anger to Putin. Why not? Because Putin knows enough about Trump to get him impeached. Perhaps, he has outstanding loans from Putin. Or shady financial deals.

Anyway, he is smart enough to not bite the hand that feeds him.

Using the 25th amendment to get Trump out of office leaves his henchmen in charge. Pence, McConnell, Ryan, Sessions are all complicit in Trump's connection to Putin. The Republican party needs to be totally decimated and discredited.

When the Republicans realize that Trump is not interested in their agenda, only in ensuring that Congress is too afraid of him to deny his pro-Putin agenda, there will be a bipartisan call for impeachment.
