ALWAGHT- The Democratic Party has intensified its attacks on Donald Trump, calling the US President a 'liar' as House lawmakers push forward with impeachment proceedings under the 25th Amendment.
The Democratic Party has publicly labeled Donald Trump a "liar" on its official X account—a rare and blunt criticism of a sitting US president. This escalation follows former Speaker Nancy Pelosi's symbolic 2020 gesture of tearing up Trump's State of the Union speech, citing pervasive falsehoods. Analysts suggest Trump's presidency has been destabilized by contradictory statements on military actions and impulsive decision-making, leading to regional conflicts—particularly with Iran—that have triggered a broader Middle East war. Recent polls show Trump's approval rating has plummeted to a record low of 34 percent.
Representative John Larson has declared Trump unfit for office and filed articles of impeachment, working with Representative Jamie Raskin to establish a commission on presidential capacity under the 25th Amendment. The 13-article impeachment document accuses Trump of initiating unauthorized wars against Iran, Yemen, Lebanon, Syria, Nigeria, and Gaza, as well as war crimes, maritime piracy, threats against other nations, and the militarization of domestic law enforcement. Notably, some Republican senators have also called for activating the 25th Amendment, which would allow the Vice President and a Cabinet majority to declare the president unable to discharge his duties.
