Could the people of the United States somehow hold a vote now, or in the next year, to oust Donald Trump? Like a recall of some sort.

Quote
In laymen's terms, what would it take for the USA to pass a constitutional amendment for a President Recall like CA has for governor?

Twitters how do I civics?

Do you ever wonder why they make kids go to school but don't teach them anything?

From "they're" point of view that is a feature, not a bug.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

If it's wrong to refer to Shaun King as Talcum X then I don't wanna be right.
I shall not die alone, alone, but kin to all the powers,
As merry as the ancient sun and fighting like the flowers.

My skeptical side wonders if some of these uber-stupid "Recall the POTUS!" tweets and posts... the people in question know it's not possible, but are looking at a long four, or potentially eight years to try and keep their base, who they do know are "that stupid" fired up and hopeful.

Although I fully concede that yes, Talcum X may just be that stupid/ignorant...
I promise not to duck.
