Vice President Kamala Harris helped cover up the severe cognitive and physical decline of her boss for four years. Or maybe she actually didn’t know about it. Either way, her handling of this crisis disqualifies her to be commander-in-chief for four years.
A letter posted Sunday to President Joe Biden’s X account announced that he would not seek reelection, and a follow-up post endorsed Harris to take the helm. She’s already raised nearly $50 million since announcing her candidacy, and party leaders have begun rallying around her.
But America is in need of a leader, and leaders make tough decisions, no matter how politically fraught they may seem at the time. That includes invoking the 25th Amendment to remove a senile man from office for the good of the country.
Harris had four years to do that, but she chose not to. She should have invoked the 25th Amendment after Biden’s repeated and obvious “gaffes” became a national security liability.
Biden called for a coup against Russian President Vladimir Putin in 2022, potentially escalating the war in Ukraine. Biden repeatedly struggled to walk up stairs, across a stage, or even off the debate stage unassisted. Biden called out for the late Rep. Jackie Walorski, R-Ind., asking “Where’s Jackie?” Walorski passed away the previous month in a car accident.
Biden was even deemed too “sympathetic” and “elderly … with a poor memory” to be charged for mishandling classified documents.
All that’s to say, it was evident that Biden’s mental faculties were severely impeding his ability to carry out presidential duties.
Of course it’s still not a hopeless cause. Harris can still assemble the Cabinet and invoke the 25th Amendment. It would lend an ounce of credibility to Democrats’ coup. But it’s an unlikely scenario since Democrats don’t actually care about the good of the country. They just care about their electoral prospects, and leaving Biden in office doesn’t seem to impact their chances so much anymore.
Then there are the other possible explanations for Harris’ dereliction of duty, as pointed out by Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, on X.
Democrats and their media allies want you to believe that with their seven-figure salaries, endless resources and connections, they somehow only discovered Biden is mentally incapacitated at the debate. It’s of course not plausible that @MAGAmama123 and millions of others knew about Biden’s mental state before the “experts.” Instead, the former group just deliberately shielded the public from the truth.
If Harris was aware of Biden’s declining mental faculties and didn’t move to invoke the 25th Amendment at any point in the past three years, “then she lied to keep [Biden] (and her) in power,” Lee posted on X.
“That should disqualify her from ascending to the presidency.”
Harris touted Biden’s fitness, saying during an ABC News interview that she has spent “a lot of time with Biden, be it in the Oval Office, in the Situation Room and other places — he is extraordinarily smart. He has the ability to see around the corner in terms of what might be the challenges we face as a nation or globally.”
When the Hur Report came out, Harris said “the way that the president’s demeanor in that report was characterized could not be more wrong on the facts and clearly politically motivated, gratuitous.”
So let’s say Harris genuinely believed that the man who confused her with “Vice President Trump” was all there mentally. That means “she was naive to the point of being reckless,” Lee pointed out in his post on X.
Whatever the case may be, Harris has proven herself a spineless vice president when her country’s safety and stability depended on her.
