Remember when folks on the left were castigated for raising the 25th Amendment? Republican White House staffers were having the same talk internally. Remember when Trump said there was a left-wing deep-state FBI conspiracy? Well—there's a right-wing deep state in the White House.
2/ I never imagined elements within a government working to thwart that government because that actually *is* a "deep state" in a certain sense of that bizarre phrase. I assumed if White House staffers thought a president dangerous they'd quit or use the 25th, not undercut POTUS.
3/ Here's my point: the Constitution created the 25th Amendment and architecture created *exits* so that people in an administration who consider it dangerous have 2 options. Choosing neither option so you can get judges nominated, then calling yourself a hero is *not* an option.
