If ever there was a cause for invoking the 25th amendment that provides for the removal of the President for incapacity, now would be the time. Our soon to be octogenarian continues to make mistakes that have profound impacts both domestically and internationally. These are not gaffes but blunders of extreme danger.
The latest rounds cast Putin as the devil himself and paints him into a corner threatening the use of nuclear weapons as his only way out. He’s a war criminal, an animal and someone who cannot remain in power. How does that sound to a guy with his finger on a nuclear trigger? Add to the conundrum is the obvious blackmail/propaganda cards Putin holds over Biden as a result of Hunter’s laptop revelations.
While Ukraine dominates the news, we have this same Putin lead Russia negotiating with a terrorist country “on our behalf”. After delivering billions in greenbacks in the last round of this debacle with Iran that led to the inability to investigate their nuclear program and little slowdown in the effort to obtain nuclear weapons, here is the same crew going for it again. The crew that can’t keep their leader on a short enough leash from causing all kinds of cleanups. How long before they can’t be cleaned up?
With this as a backdrop, we have a lady in waiting that conjures an even worse scenario, if that is even possible. No, we won’t be invoking the 25th for fear that the devil we want replaced will be with an even worse devil. Again, thanks to this President whose history making selections are definitely that. We’re stuck with this man whose cognitive abilities are on full deteriorating display. When he has to say that the other leaders have full faith in his abilities, you know we’re in trouble. Too bad number two is just that.
