		</div><p>A Republican congressman and senior Democrat have called on President Donald Trump’s Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove him from office.</p>
<p>Adam Kinzinger, from Illinois, made the remarks in a video posted to Twitter, responding to the violent mob that stormed Congress on Wednesday in an attempt to stop the certification of President-elect Joe Biden’s win over Mr Trump.</p>
<p>Mr Kinzinger said: “The president is unfit. And the president is unwell.”</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">It’s with a heavy heart I am calling for the sake of our Democracy that the 25th Amendment be invoked. My statement: <a href="https://t.co/yVyQrYcjuD">pic.twitter.com/yVyQrYcjuD</a></p>

<p>He went on to say Mr Trump “must now relinquish control of the executive branch voluntarily or involuntarily”.</p>
<p>The 25th Amendment allows for the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet to declare the president unfit for office.</p>
<p>The vice president then becomes acting president.</p>

<p>Mr Kinzinger’s call was echoed by Chuck Schumer, a senior Democrat.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">What happened at the U.S. Capitol yesterday was an insurrection against the United States, incited by President Trump.</p>
<p>This president must not hold office one day longer.</p>
<p>&mdash; Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) <a href="https://twitter.com/SenSchumer/status/1347223559278653441?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 7, 2021</a></p></blockquote>
<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>Mr Schumer urged outgoing vice-president Mike Pence to take the required action.</p>
<p>He tweeted: “What happened at the US Capitol yesterday was an insurrection against the United States, incited by President Trump.</p>
<p>“This president must not hold office one day longer.”</p>
<p>He added: “The quickest and most effective way—it can be done today—to remove this president from office would be for the Vice President to immediately invoke the 25th amendment.</p>
<p>“If the Vice President and the Cabinet refuse to stand up, Congress must reconvene to impeach President Trump.”</p>
