Brennan urges 25th Amendment move amid Trump's Iran rhetoric

TL;DR Summary
Former CIA Director John Brennan argues that President Trump is unfit for office and that the 25th Amendment was written with him in mind, citing Trump’s volatile Iran threats. More than 70 Democrats have supported invoking the amendment, though its chances are slim due to cabinet loyalty and presidential backing. Brennan is also under an ongoing DOJ inquiry, a context that underscores the political sting of his call in contrast to past related prosecutions (Comey’s charges were later dropped).
