My own view is that the Twenty-Fifth Amendment ought to be dusted off and applied to Joe Biden. Section One: “In case of the removal of the President from office or of his death or resignation, the Vice President shall become President.” From Section Four: “Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.” If there is a dispute, Congress decides by a two-thirds vote of both Houses.
As a preliminary, the audio tape of Robert Hur’s interview with Biden should be released worldwide the public can understand what Hur meant when he said this “elderly man with a poor memory” was unfit to stand trial (but he can continue as president of the United States?). Remember when Donald Trump vaporized Qasem Soleimani? He did so after he was awakened in the wee hours of the morning to be informed that our embassy in Baghdad was under attack. “Who did this?” he asked. “Soleimani,” he was informed. Within forty-eight hours he was a heap of sodden dust. Can you imagine trying to rouse Joe Biden at 3 a.m. to make such an imperative decision? The United States cannot afford a 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. president.

The prospect of a President Harris for even ten minutes is not exactly encouraging. She is out of her depth in a puddle
