You might have already heard, but Pelosi is moving to create a body that can evaluate a President's health and capacity to lead, and remove them from office if needed.-
Specifically, section 4 of the amendment empowers Congress to set up an independent body to confront such a crisis. Congress has a constitutional duty to lay out a process by which the president is in capacity. This honors that duty by creating a standing commission of medical officials and experts selected in a bipartisan, bicameral way. A presidents's fitness for -- a president's fitness for office must be determined by the facts
Putting aside the possibility of this actually passing, let's think about this for a moment. This body is the same body referenced in the highlighted section in the above picture. This is fair game and legal etc. But did you notice the other requirement, listed before the highlighted section?
The Vice President would have to agree with this body and move to remove the President, as well
Just to make this clear, let's pretend this passes in any reasonable time frame, and then the body they established determines Trump is unfit to rule, and try to force him to step down.... Mike Pence could just say 'no, he's fine actually' and Trump would be allowed to carry on
I'm not even going to get into how the same section goes on to describe that the President can recover and then resume his duties. This is a complete non starter on so many levels, but libs are celebrating today. Grrr
Yes people would feel betrayed but since when has that stopped a politician? How beneficial/harmful to capital would it be is more my line of thinking.
