Section 1.


In case of the removal of the President from office or of his death or resignation, the Vice President shall become President.

Section 2.

Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress.

Section 3.

Whenever the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that he is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, and until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary, such powers and duties shall be discharged by the Vice President as Acting President.

Section 4.

Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.

Trump the bedwetter is the real problem. Pathological liar, Narcisistic personality disorder along with clear bouts of growing dementia. And that is before you get to the core problem that he is an arsehole and always has been.

Almost anyone is better than Trump as long as they are sane and have a 3 digit IQ.

Trump is the most grown up person on this planet these days

I have the feeling that Dr Ronnie Jackson is probably moonlighting as a doctor. He probably goes to make up for an hour a day before he changes into his alter ego, Ronnie McDonnie, and then goes to scare little children at fast food establishments.

For all we know, Mr Trump might be walking in to the doctor's office clutching one side of his body. Then the doctor gives him some redbull and stillnox before sending Mr Trump on his way. Have you read Trump's recent twitter feed? Me neither.

"He continues to enjoy the significant long-term cardiac and overall health benefits that come from a lifetime of abstinence from tobacco and alcohol." Dr Ronnie Jackson

Trump got perfect score on Montreal Cognitive Assessment, a test of mental functions Jackson says wasn’t needed and given after Trump asked for it to put doubts about his mental abilities to rest. Trump did "exceedingly well" on cognitive and neurological tests, which he personally requested.

Jackson added that Trump ought to lose 10 to 15 pounds and that he was "more excited about the diet part than the exercise part"

Jackson claimed that Trump's slurred speech during a public appearance last month might have been caused by Sudafed, and that an ultrasound after the incident turned up no concerning results.

(Send in the clowns to tell us Trump is insane)

But he did say that Mr. Trump’s weight is 239 pounds and that he is too sedentary. His cholesterol is too high, despite taking medicine to lower it, and Dr. Jackson said Mr. Trump would be increasing the 10-milligram dosage of Crestor to better control it.

At 6 feet 3 inches tall, Mr. Trump has a body mass index of 29.9, which is just shy of officially being obese. A New York driver’s license issued in 2012 listed him as 6 feet 2 inches tall, which would put him just into the obese category.



Classic thinking. Don't change the diet to bring his cholesterol down, just increase his drugs. Plus they don't mention his LDL/HDL

But lets face it, JFK was reported at the time to be in excellent health.

FDRs health in 1944 was also reported as generally good.

I would suspect that most of the welfare loafing arsewipes on this forum are obese...

Trump would smash them in any game of sport... golf, tennis, pingpong, Boxing...

Trump just keeps kicking goals... he's as fit as a fiddle..

the Democrats on the other hand...

hell.. Hillary had to go home and have a sleep for three days after every 10 minute speech!!

"A BMI of 30.27 is within the obese category. It is recommended that you visit a health professional to discuss the impacts this may have on your health."

Trump doesn't need anyone telling him how great he is.

He is a narcissist, so he actually does need people praising him.

Prime Minister for Canyons wrote on Jan 18^th, 2018 at 12:29pm:



its an interesting proposition.

highly unlikely.

a true narc lacks the ability to judge his own behaviour.

see, we "outsource" most of our sanity.

we interact with other people and then we say or do something and then there are consequences and so we "readjust" our personality.

and in the sort of real "person to person " interactions Trump has been engaging in for decades, you get a lot of feedback, you get a lot of learning.

and in the "people" industries like TV and entertainment and running hotels and in politics when you are pressing the flesh, you would get destroyed if you were unable to socially calibrate and behave in an acceptable way.

if we contrast this with the interactions on this forum though, we see the problem for the true narcissists.

a true narcissist (and gweg and longy seem to behave in this way) interacts on line and there is very little in the way of calibration. there is no opportunity to "press the flesh" from a keyboard in your mummys basement.

and i think gweg and longy have actually drifted. without this human interaction, you will always drift and you will drift towards your area of greatest personality weakness.

i think both longy and gweg are narcs and they would do well to get off the keyboard and go run a business like trump and have some of those impurities burnt out of their personalities .

i mean, how many times can we hear about the size of the presidents hands or allegations he cheats at golf.  this is pedantry and OCD that is in a downward spiral

From the DSM V about NPD

Grandiosity with expectations of superior treatment from other people
Fixated on fantasies of power, success, intelligence, attractiveness, etc.
Self-perception of being unique, superior, and associated with high-status people and institutions
Needing continual admiration from others
Sense of entitlement to special treatment and to obedience from others
Exploitative of others to achieve personal gain
Unwilling to empathize with the feelings, wishes, and needs of other people
Intensely envious of others, and the belief that others are equally envious of them
Pompous and arrogant demeanor


All of these are evident in Trump.
