Washington—Talk of invoking the 25th Amendment against President Donald Trump spread across Capitol Hill this week, marking a sharp escalation in Democratic criticism that has moved beyond policy disputes into constitutional territory.
The latest round of rhetoric follows reports circulating among lawmakers that tie Trump’s renewed interest in acquiring Greenland to personal frustration over not receiving a Nobel Peace Prize. While the White House has dismissed the claims as speculative, several Democrats have cited them as evidence of what they describe as erratic judgment.
Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove said the reports raise serious questions about the president’s fitness for office, calling Trump “unfit to lead” and urging colleagues to consider action under the 25th Amendment. Sen. Ed Markey echoed those concerns, arguing that Congress has a responsibility to respond if it believes a president is unable to discharge the duties of the office.
Freshman Rep. Yassamin Ansari went further, pointing to a reported letter Trump sent to Norwegian officials regarding the Nobel Peace Prize as grounds for immediate consideration of the amendment. Her comments underscored how quickly the debate has intensified, with coordinated statements from multiple lawmakers amplifying the call.
So far, Republican leaders have dismissed the push as political theater, noting that invoking the 25th Amendment would require significant executive branch participation and bipartisan support—conditions that currently appear unlikely. Still, the episode highlights how the Greenland issue has become an unexpected flashpoint in Washington, fueling a broader confrontation over presidential conduct, constitutional norms, and the limits of congressional power.
