        Wrong question - we know he is unfit to govern, the question is - who decides to remove him BECAUSE he is unfit to govern.

        @Jesse_Livermore Same loaded question as 'When did you stop beating your wife'. Fortunately Americans, not professors judge politicians.

        The voters. They have had many decades to make up their mind about Trump's mental competence.

        If Trump is unfit to govern, doesn't that mean people is unfit to vote?

        So it's a murky business. But even the fact this debate is being taken so seriously speaks volumes.

        It is making sick to think that resorting to demeaning others is an acceptable method of dialogue and working together... Why promote such?
