this is a boring take but if we want this from a Dem President in 2029 we need to deliver the type of huge legislative majority Magyar just achieved and not the razor-thin one that Biden was forced to work with.

Donald Trumpβs deranged threat to destroy βa whole civilizationβ in Iran is a threat to commit war crimes and genocide. Republicans in Congress must prevail upon VP Vance, now campaigning for Putinβs puppet Viktor Orban in Hungary, to return to the U.S. and invoke Section 4 of the 25th Amendment.

I can't interact with this post, but this attitude is why I wrote my piece. This is letting them off. "I expect nothing of them, so I'm moving on." I don't do that. I wanted to lay out very clearly that they do have power, and that they have a responsibility to act.
