25th Amendment?

All of this talk about invoking the 25th Amendment misses a key point. The Executive Branch, in the person of the President, just incited an attack on the Legislative Branch. The 25th Amendment allows the people of the Executive Branch to deal with a rogue or incapable president, but if Congress doesn't do something themselves, in their *own* right, they will have forfeited their power to protect themselves to the Executive Branch. And once they start down this path, it is not long before they soon stop being an independent branch of the government, and we become a dictatorship.
