This week’s story update on the Election Central Web site looks into two dramatic stories surrounding President Trump and his administration.

On September 5, the New York Times published an anonymous Op-Ed piece by a White House insider. This individual, only identified as a Senior White House official, whose identity is known to the Times editorial leaders, wrote about the ways in which members of the Trump administration are working together to thwart some of the president’s harmful policies in the effort to preserve democracy until Trump leaves office. The anonymous writer went on to say that some members of the administration had considered invoking the 25th Amendment to force Trump out of office, but that they had not done so for fear of causing a constitutional crisis.
