25th Amendment Questions
2021-03-06
When a President is removed from office for Mental Capacity issues using the 25th Amendment. When Mental illness and Competency issues were clearly demonstrated prior to his election, and/or while in office.

Question #1. Does that VOID any Executive Orders, Bill, Laws, and etc. passed that required said President's signature?

Question #2. Or just VOID Executive Orders, Bills and Laws passed that DID NOT meet the two-thirds vote in each Chambers which would override a President's Veto.

Question #3. If Mental Illness / Competency is shown to have existed prior to taking office. Does it VOID his Oath of Office swearing in based on Mental Illness / Competency grounds?

Question #4
4a. Since a Presidents Administration starts after the Oath of Office is administered. Wouldn't a President have to be legally sworn in and take office 1st, before his VP can be sworn in and officially take the VP Oath?

4b. Would this official process timeline VOID the VP Oath of Office and Swearing in process since the President could not legally take office?

Thus requiring a new election?

#11  "Is this what we do next?"
(referring to taking questions)
Mic cut, but a real tell that he is no long following, but being actively led. He gone.

And as much fun an exercise this would be, like Clem said 'Motion to ratify the acts and deeds of the previous administration' is all it would take, especially with an EO, and the only true witness to the alleged clarity or lack there of at the time of the EO would be the patient, who is no longer available.

#10  Kamelho is already the one conducting Foreign Policy. Who's to say she, and her allies, are not also approving EO's for the Puppet to sign?

#9  Do you want an inactive idiot or an active one?

The 2020 election proved that what the people want no longer matters.

#8  Re #5: You really think Jo-jo has a clue and understands what they put in front of him to sign? Once Harris takes over, she's going to think she's in charge and start throwing her self-imagined weight around.

#6  With Dementia Patients Lucidity comes and goes, more time elepses, lucidity is less apparent.

The struggle for the observer is when is/was the line crossed when the patient is spending less time with reality, and more time in confusion.

10 doctors will give 10 answers, suprisingly the patient is more likely to tell you, if you ask the right questions, and they have not lost their ability to communicate, which does happen frequently.

As for the questions above, No on all counts, do not feed my votes through the Dominion System, Please.

#4  Best not think too much about 25A. Do you want an inactive idiot or an active one?

#3  Only if he's a D. R's aren't allowed to rewrite EO's according to the Supreme Circus'es Trump DACA E.O. ruling.

#2  I think they are all "NO". In a way, just like trying to impeach a non-sitting president.

Besides, the new prez will just write/re-do the EO's.

#1  ...As much as it would be fun to watch to watch otherwise, the answer to all four is "No." That way lies madness.
