BarbaraHudson's Journal: President Pence

Trumpâ(TM)s latest brain farts when he had to make shit up after the TelePrompTer failed during his July 4th speech makes it pretty obvious that heâ(TM)s got dementia. Taking over the airports in the war of Independence isnâ(TM)t just another blooper to be laughed away. The man is not aware of what heâ(TM)s saying!

The Republicans arenâ(TM)t stupid - at least not THAT stupid. They know that Trump is vulnerable to attack by Democrats on his record, his persona, his lies, his sucking up to dictators, etc. They will wait till the last moment, then use Article 25 to replace him.

Makes the whole impeachment thing go away, since they will make the case that heâ(TM)s not competent, not mentally fit to stand trial by the Senate.

The knives are not out yet, but they are being sharpened. The national nightmare will be over - but Pence can be even worse. From kleptocracy to theocracy. It really does end with a whimper, not with a bang.

Article 25 is not very effective

The GOP wouldn't waste their time with Article 25, it would just create a side circus that they wouldn't want to manage. After all, a POTUS removed by 25 can rally his lawyers to appeal it and then that starts a whole new set of hearings and uncertainties. And if the GOP exercised it, they'd be admitting that they endorsed an incompetent idiot for POTUS to begin with.

They just have to let him fail on his own next November. Then this terrible mistake can finally end.
