He’s worse than a RINO.
He’s a DIRC. (Dem in RINO clothing.)

That could be the more dangerous option strategically with regard to our foreign enemies, although one CANNOT say with any certainty Kamala Harris would be a preferable option even in the short term.
Maybe. I think we can ring the 25 th Amendment bell without unseating Biden. It does him no favors in the run-up to the election, and shines a spotlight on you-know-who as the likely POTUS, this time next year, should Biden/Harris “win.”
BTW, approval of a replacement vice-president for Harris would have to be approved by BOTH houses of Congress, which would put Republican Speaker Johnson both next in line and with a veto over her replacement.
Might be good strategy. Put Kamila in the WH before they can swap Biden for any other more electable candidate.
Duties he has been unable to do for probably a year or two already and the country still stands. What's a few more months? This is nothing but a red herring and Chip Roy needs to go.
I’m not buying the charge that this move is either ill-considered or ill-motivated.
It seems smart and helpful to me.
Joe Biden is unfit to be President. That is simply the truth.
It is a national security crisis that our Commander-in-Chief is demented. Fact.
The reason we’re in this situation is because the Democrats and the media are evil, cynical liars. Fact.
So how does it hurt the GOP to have a weeks-long national conversation concerning the fact that the evil lying Democrats and their leftist media co-conspirators have put us in a terrible national security crisis?
House GOP Reps don’t have a very high IQ in general. It is quite apparent. This guy cannot think strategically at all.
Totally meaningless. His resolution wouldn’t force Harris to do anything.
Maybe a blessing in disguise. Republicans will have the strongest mandate if they win on the issues, i.e., on how the left is wrecking America, rather than on ballot eligibility or Biden’s dementia. Not easy for Republicans, but they need to learn.
Chip Roy is a moron. The 25th Amendment was never designed for the removal of a president against his will due to incompetence or incapacity. It is designed to be used in the event of a medical emergency or wartime scenario where the president is temporarily incapacitated or out of contact.
Perhaps this dim bulb isn’t aware that the threshold in Congress for declaring a president unfit for office under the 25th Amendment is higher than the threshold for simply impeaching and removing him.
In practical terms, if democrats have the power to go 25th and want to do it, they will do it regardless.
If not, they will not.
This is kind-of the ‘24 version of Operation Chaos.
Big deal, will come to nothing.
Harris won’t go the 25th route unless she is sure she has the votes and she doesn’t. I’ll bet not a single cabinet member would vote to remove him. As long as the President is as functional as Biden is i.e. not comatose or drooling (all the time at least) he is able to execute the duties of the office.
Besides, this is a political play and Harris has no political power at all compared to Biden. If she aims for the king and misses, her future is over. She wouldn’t have the votes at this time at least.
Chip Roy is doing the right thing.
Wrong; Roy is correct in that it is plausible that he is too ill to serve. It is too risky to leave him in office for almost 7 more months. Biden should be removed under the 25th Amendment if he is this ill and Harris should assume the Presidency.
Typical Republican horse shit; snare defeat from the jaws of victory. Republicans, too many of them suck.
Yup. Take away his Maga hat.
He’s another RINO traitor. Don’t give the dems ANYTHING!
If they want to replace Joe, they can do it themselves.
DNC can always sit on their hands and wait for some MORON RINO to save them. Then abuse the idiot later at election time ( or other). No respect, and doesn’t deserve any either
