Trump's second term has featured repeated Democratic calls to invoke Section 4 of the 25th Amendment, particularly during the 2026 Iran conflict when his public statements prompted concerns over judgment and escalation. These efforts stalled due to the amendment's high procedural barriers, which require the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet to declare incapacity, followed by a two-thirds vote in both chambers of Congress if contested. Republican majorities and consistent support from Vice President JD Vance and the Cabinet have prevented any momentum. A recent impeachment resolution introduced in August 2026 further highlights partisan divides without advancing removal proceedings. Trader consensus reflects these structural and political obstacles, though a sudden documented health crisis or unprecedented Cabinet defection before January 2027 could still alter the outlook.
