The Constitution knows of NO “interim” C-in-C. Chief of Staff assumes C-in-C.
Al Haig under R Reagan.
Even when the POTUS gives authority to VP for being sedated, the VPOTUS does not have C-in-C.
The VP, until sworn in as POTUS, is not C-in-C.
Likewise anyone else in the Chain.
It’s in the Constitution that way for a reason.
An unconscience POTUS would not give VPOTUS, as interim, the ability to wage war.
An unconsciOUS POTUS would not give VPOTUS, as interim, the ability to wage war.

GOOD TO KNOW....ESPECIALY WITH THE KAMEL AS VP.
