Most of them have enough money to be concerned about the power that this would give Musk. That's a lot bigger concern than their next yacht.

You could be correct but I see their interests aligning with Musk's a lot more than with Trump’s. The ultra wealthy have that common bond.

The Tech Broligarchy is going to push Trump out with the 25th Amendment the second they have the chance. Vance is already 100% in their pocket.

the 25th has to be one of the most misunderstood amendments. a friend of mine wrote a paper on it. i was like, who is this paper for? who doesn't understand the 25th? and he said, you'd be surprised. he was right. so, before i criticize here, i will say that i have it on good authority that law professors sometimes make this very same mistake.

but anyway, the broligarchy cannot push trump out with the 25th, because of the last paragraph of the amendment. all that would happen is that they could push trump aside for a few days. then trump would tell congress, 'i am fine,' and he would be restored unless 2/3 of both houses votes to remove him. are there R 20 votes in the senate and 80+ in the house to get rid of trump? i have my doubts. and i suspect that the plotters would have the same doubts, and avoid plotting.

as this issue has never come up before, i do not know what criminal penalties could await someone who launches a bad faith 25th amendment attack on a president. but i suspect there would be some statutes that apply (including, perhaps, the catch all conspiracy against the united states). but i doubt the majority of the cabinet will just do it without asking some lawyers some questions.
