US President Donald Trump's recent remarks directed at Iran have sparked speculation regarding the potential for his removal from office under the 25th Amendment.
Trump's explicit threat to Iran, which included a religious reference, has attracted significant scrutiny and criticism.
There has been a notable increase in trading volume as users wager on the possibility of Cabinet-level intervention to declare the president unfit for office on Kalshi, the regulated prediction platform.
The share prices for the "Yes" option surged from 28.6% to 35.1% over the past month, marking the second-highest level since the commencement of Trump's second term.
Critics of Trump are referencing Section 4 of the 25th Amendment, which permits the Vice President, along with a majority of the Cabinet, to declare the President incapable of fulfilling his responsibilities.
Rep. Yassamin Ansari (D, Ariz.) said, "The 25th Amendment exists for a reason. The President of the United States is a deranged lunatic, and a national security threat to our country and the rest of the world."
