Pollak: Republicans Should Back Democrats’ 2020 Bill on Removing Presidents for IncapacityJoel B. Pollak 19 Apr 2022
Republicans should rally around a 2020 proposal backed by Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to make it easier to remove presidents for mental incapacity under the 25th Amendment to the Constitution, based on Joe Biden’s recent behavior.
On Monday, at a White House Easter egg roll, Biden appeared confused and unsure of what to do or where to go. He stumbled as he attempted to read a children’s book, and was interrupted by a costumed Easter bunny when he attempted to address the media. Apparently the bunny, a press aide, had been assigned to direct the president’s movements at the event.
Biden’s behavior sparked mockery, but also concern: is the leader of the free world being directed by the Easter bunny?
In October 2020 — on a much flimsier pretext — Pelosi and Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) re-introduced a bill to establish what Raskin called the Commission on Presidential Capacity to Discharge the Powers and Duties of Office. The idea was to create a process for evaluating a sitting president and then removing him or her from office if necessary, given mental incapacity.
