People love to harp on sleepy joe but the administration continued to function and move things forward even with an aged out leader. Trumps complete disregard for leadership and laws has made it a much bigger joke imo.

Given how much power was concentrated in the executive, it's probably better if the role became largely ceremonial.

That’s a horrible conclusion. It’s anti-constitutional and exactly why you have unchecked power now. We have checks and balances. The courts and congress are the safeguards.

Are you trolling?

The government is not meant to continue functioning with a mentally inept president. The vice president is supposed to have them removed.

The president is elected, not his cabinet. I can’t believe you even said that.

I don’t think any institution should be brought to its knees by one person. That’s a risk management failure.

If Kamala felt Joe was truly inept she could’ve moved to remove him as you suggest?
