The 25th amendment makes no distinction between physical and mental disability. The phrasing is “... unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.”

My point was that a mentally disabled President can still challenge the 25th Amendment declaration, which takes 2/3 of Congress to override.

A President in a coma can’t.
