Pence does not rule out that it is necessary to appeal to the prosecution
The team of the vice president of the United States hopes that it is not necessary to initiate the impeachment procedure.
Acting Vice President of the United States, Michael Pence, believes that it is possible to use the 25th Amendment to the United States Constitution to impeach the incumbent President of the White House, Republican Donald Trump, if the latter becomes completely unpredictable. This was announced on Saturday, January 9 by CNN.
It is noted that Pence’s team hopes that it will not be necessary to initiate impeachment proceedings by declaring the American leader incapacitating, as this may cause additional risks to the country’s security.
But at the same time, the vice president argues that if Trump’s behavior in office “becomes even less predictable,” he will have to resort to an amendment and assume the functions of head of state.
Recall, according to the 25th amendment, the vice president holds the position of head of state in the event of early termination of the president’s powers, his incapacity. This amendment has never been applied since its adoption in 1967.
It was previously reported that Trump could be indicted after the inauguration of his successor Joe Biden. The procedure will be in charge of the Democratic leader Chuck Schumer, since the Democratic Party took control of the Senate.
