FReeper pepsionice made a good point that if Joe resigns and Harris ascends to the POTUS, the Senate would vote on the new VP candidate, and would not have that limitation on their votes.

But if they chose to run for reelection as that same team, then it might become a problem................

And I'm sure they would be able to pick off five Republicans in the House to support the new VP nominee, making it impossible for McCarthy to influence the timing and the choice of her replacement.

Unless she's run over by a yellow school bus, in which case McCarthy would become President.
