After President Donald Trump threatened to wipe out a "whole civilization" in a post on his Truth Social platform, many Democrats in Congress called for him to be removed from office via the U.S. Constitution's 25th Amendment. That's unlikely to happen at this point, as Republicans still have majorities in both branches of Congress. But conservative attorney George Conway, during an appearance on The New Republic's podcast, "The Daily Blast," posted on April 17, argued that the push to use the 25th Amendment against Trump won't be going away.

Sargent, who spent much of his life as a Republican but is now running for Congress as a Democrat, told host Greg Sargent, "He is somebody who has always been marked by personal obsessions — whatever's bugging him, whatever he sees on television, whoever he thinks has slighted him. And in a sense, this is nothing new. But he's reached a different stage here. Because even though there were weekends where we scratched our head and said, 'What's wrong with this guy? 25th Amendment and so on,' the difference now is that he's less inhibited. People like him who are narcissistic sociopaths, they get worse over time."

The Never Trump conservative continued, "And in addition to that, his age — and I'm not saying he has dementia — but his brain is not functioning as well. I don't think it ever functioned that well, (but) he's becoming more disinhibited. And he's going fewer people around him who can tell him, 'Don't say that, don't do that. Please put the phone down." Not that they ever really could do it. But basically, if you tell him no, you're gone…. Now, he's just not listening to anybody."

Conway emphasized that as "sociopaths" like Trump become more "detached from reality," they become "more dangerous not only to themselves, but also, to the people they supposedly serve."

Sargent noted that Republicans are becoming increasingly worried about the midterms, and Trump is doing nothing to calm their anxiety.

"I think they're trying to communicate something to Trump, but he's not listening," Conway told Sargent. " He no longer cares. He is off in his own reality now. And the Republicans are expressing concern because they know he's driving them off a cliff. And you see also it in a lot of the Republican influences — the Megyn Kellys, the Joe Rogans, the Tucker Carlsons. They're basically talking about the 25th Amendment now. And I think this is happening all up and down the MAGA food chain. The electeds, who realize they're no longer getting usefulness from Trump. The influencers, who realize there's in there for them in there anymore…. The cognitive dissonance, in other words, is breaking down. And the problem for them is, there's only one way out of it — and that's to get rid of Donald Trump."

Conway continued, "He is not going to listen to them. He is not going to tone it down. If anything, he's going to get worse because he is completely detached from reality…. They have a huge problem…. The Republican senators are cowards. They have been afraid of Trump, but at some point, they're going to have to be afraid of something else."
