A wave of American democrats has called for the impeachment of President Donald Trump, questioning his mental health after he threatened Iran with attacks on critical infrastructure. In an interview, Trump stated that an "entire civilization" could be destroyed if Tehran does not comply with the deadline for reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Representative Diana DeGette proposed invoking the 25th Amendment, while Senator Ed Markey called for the initiation of impeachment proceedings, describing Trump's statements as "unstable and dangerous." The White House dismissed the criticisms as "pathetic." Trump reacted to questions about his mental health, stating that he had not heard of these accusations. Democrats emphasize that the 25th Amendment and the impeachment process are ways to remove Trump from office, in the context of his threats of war crimes. Concerns have also been expressed by some Republicans, and Democrats intend to propose a resolution to limit Trump's war powers in Iran.
