I’d say that would be one of the duties of the VP, to organize the 25th amendment and become president if the current president is unfit to lead. Of course that is assuming you were chosen to be VP because of abilities, rather then to appeal to a certain state or demographic. For example when Obama chose Biden to begin with.
Well, no. It’s saying, IF the President BECOMES unfit to lead for any reason, the VP should be expected to take over. This is a topic of literally every election.
If a VP isn’t ready to take over, they are a bad VP. There’s a reason why VPs have a debate before elections on policy.
You are literally right, but politically wrong. How shit like that plays can be very different from the carefully parsed out phrasing. This is one of the reasons that Republicans consistently kick the shit out of Democrats on messaging.
Democratic politicians love getting high on their own farts with clever language and nuanced takes. They do this shit all the time because they are so deeply out of touch.
I expect any VP should be ready to serve as long as they are VP. That’s like, the biggest role of a VP other than as a tie breaker in the Senate.
You’re usually not supposed to talk about it though, because it’s basically saying “I don’t think the President is fit to lead”
