There is no reason at this point,...GOP house to try to invoke 25th amendment.


The House plays no role in the invoking of the 25th. That is completely in the hands of the V.P. and the Cabinet. The only role for the House in the process occurs when or if the Cabinet declares Biden incapable of being President and Biden (or Dr Jill, really) disputes it. Both Houses have to vote by 2/3 majority that he is unfit.

So unless Biden is lying in bed in his own drool, I just don’t see it happening. But to be honest so many bizarre things are happening now, I don’t know I’d be surprised by anything.

But it is interesting. Biden is too old and out of it to be prosecuted, but Trump isn’t. I suppose that could be a campaign ad.

I agree the 25th probably isn't the tool to be used. But I do think the left could use this issue to force Biden out. There was already a growing voice on the left that Biden was too old, with diminished cognitive abilities. This could push the party over the edge. But Biden won't go willingly, and that makes removing him difficult. This report might be the first shot in a war between Biden and the entrenched bureaucracy.

If it gets to that the Republicans could actually do something smart for once in their lives....

and refuse to remove Biden.

He should stand as a living monument to the insanity of the Democratic Party.

Let them deal with their mess.
