Hey Cabinet members, please be heroes

Dear members of the Cabinet,
You can be heroes today. You have the power to end this trainwreck of a presidency today. All you have to do is invoke the 25th Amendment. Clearly 45 is not fit for office. Call it "health reasons" if you want. Just do it. Save the Republic. Yes, that sounds a tad dramatic, but that's where we are.
This president is not acting in the best interests of the country. That is not a partisan statement. It's just fact. He is putting our alliances at risk. Our international reputation is in tatters. He seems far more concerned about how events impact Russia than the U.S. He does not "get" separation of powers. He, frankly, does not "get" much of anything. He is toxic and he needs to go.
This untenable administration will end soon. Count on it. But how soon and will your tenure end with his? I expect a President Pence would be more inclined to keep you around.
Let's face it, some of you are not particularly well liked by the majority of the American public. Some of you seem to have been chosen specifically for your antipathy toward the agencies you run. But now we are in a constitutional crisis. You can all come out as patriotic heroes by putting the nation's needs before your own. Set the ship of state aright before this president does even more irreparable damage to our country.
All of you got into politics because you want to serve the public good. Serve it now by invoking the 25th Amendment. History, this country, and the world will thank you.
