John Cusack is the latest celebrity to call for President Trump’s removal from office over his administration’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic. 

The outspoken actor often uses his social media presence to criticize Trump as well as to advocate for the candidacy of 2020 Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders. On Tuesday, the 53-year-old took to Twitter to call for worker strikes amid the ongoing crisis, for the use of the 25th Amendment and for another impeachment procedure to remove Trump from office in order to "save lives."

"We need strikes /  and we need to remove trump from power to save lives Impeach him again / Pressure for 25th," he wrote.

"We will get through this. But unfortunately not with the help of this President," Reiner wrote at the time. "First he must be removed from the public square to let competent experts take over, then he must be removed from office to allow US to heal."
