A call has been made by a former White House doctor to invoke the 25th Amendment in order to remove President Joe Biden from office. Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX), who previously served as the White House physician under Presidents Donald Trump, Barack Obama, and George W. Bush, has expressed concerns about Biden’s evident mental struggles. In an interview on Fox Business’s “Mornings With Maria,” Jackson stated his belief that it is now necessary to utilize the 25th Amendment to compel Biden to step down as president.
However, it should be noted that despite assertions from Democrats and their media allies, such a course of action would not be politically advantageous for Republicans, as it would result in Vice President Kamala Harris assuming the presidency.
“Now, I saw your tweet you said it is time to brush off the 25th Amendment and use it here because President Biden is declining mentally,” host Maria Bartiromo said.
“Talk to us about that.
“What would you like to see happen?”
“Well, I think that is a real possibility here right now, Maria, because look, I mean — I have talked on your show before,” Jackson replied.
“I’ve been saying for well over three years before he was president when he was candidate Joe Biden that this man has got issues.
“He’s not cognitively fit to be our president, you know.”
Jackson indicated a significant decrease since Biden assumed the presidency, along with the recent special counsel report that officially documented his “poor memory.”
“If you go back and look at the time when he was vice president compared to now, it’s amazing at how much he’s deteriorated,” he said.
“So I think that you know, we all see this now.
“The American people have started to see it more and more over the last three years.
“Now, the Hur report came out and documents some of the same stuff that I’ve been saying that the American people are seeing now.”
Jackson highlighted that despite his efforts to disprove the report, it inadvertently highlighted his difficulties. Furthermore, he emphasized that this could potentially be exploited by U.S. “adversaries”.
“He gets on TV, he tries to refute it,” Jackson said.
“He just reinforces that he’s got some serious cognitive issues that’s inspiring confidence in our — you know, our adversaries.
“Our allies don’t want to do stuff with us because they don’t trust us and they don’t know who is in charge.
“And so I think that this is the perfect scenario in which case the vice president and a majority of the president’s cabinet will get together and notify the speaker pro tempore and the Speaker of the House — the Senate pro tempore and the Speaker of the House that the president is not fit to continue with his duties as president of the United States, in which case, unfortunately, I would be saddened about it but the vice president would immediately become president.”
