If it wasn’t so sad it could have been funny, but the
mental decline of Joe Biden has now gone into mythical proportions.
I watched this week as Rep.Lauren Boebert introduced articles
of impeachment on President Joe Biden, and I wondered if this was the path that
should be travelled. I don’t mean about impeachment, but what her articles included.
She cited his massive failure at the southern border,
a failing economy, the military etc. etc. I wondered as many of you have why
they weren’t pursuing the 25th Amendment as a pathway to remove him
due to his unfitness for the office, based on his clear mental decline.
Here is what I found, first off the President himself
has to either step down or the Vice President has to declare him unfit, neither
of which I can see happening. Second, the heads of 8 of the cabinet leaders out
of 15 have to declare him unfit (like that would ever happen, after all he gave
them their jobs.) If those hurdles aren’t high enough here’s the kicker. Two
thirds of both houses have to declare him unfit. If that were all to happen the
Vice President would take over.
Buttttttttttt if the President sends a letter to
congress stating he is just fine and he can go on to be reinstated as
President. The Vice President would have to declare him unfit once again and
the process repeats itself and the results would have to be the same to have
him removed.
As you can see the unfitness clause is a joke and
could never successfully be carried out.
As a result the only avenue is impeachment and if
successful still doesn’t actually remove a sitting president, but is merely the
first step that always ends with a two thirds vote in both houses. It’s a vicious
merry-go-round that doesn’t serve the people.
Listen to the sad speech by the leader of the free
world that doesn’t even possess the slightest grasp on reality:

Finally…… someone else that can read the constitution. Instead of rolling on hopium
It's really sad that there is basically NO instrument to remove a senile President other than a corrupt voting booth
This senie old man needs to go sooner than later!
no 80 yr old should be running the executive branch
OMG what the hell is he even trying to say? I can just picture his handlers gasping in horror!
I never really investigated the requirements of the 25th amendment, thanks for shedding light on it. I can see from your research it will probably never happen too many hoops to jump through.
Never knew that about the 25th myself bud. Great explanation. Thanks for that.
