by Tom Lineaweaver
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.

I think it's time for Vice President Pence to do something. I think it's rather easy to see that President Trump has some kind of mental deficiency that makes him unfit to continue as President. And, I am not the only one who believes this. Please see this article... www.vox.com/science-and-health/2018/1/5/16770060/trump-mental-health-psychiatrist-25th-amendment
If you knew me, you would know this is not something I say lightly. I'm not one who thinks it's okay to overturn an election for no reason. But here's a man who doesn't know the difference between an invasion force and a bunch of peasants coming across the border looking for a better life. When I heard him call them "invaders," and then saw his tweet saying the same thing, it concerned me, especially since he was being totally serious.
Not only do we have the article above, we have videos on Youtube....
With so many people concerned, shouldn't our Vice President take action. Remember, above all, the Vice President works for us, not the President. He takes an oath to support and defend the Constitution, not support and defend the President.
Vice President Pence has a duty to make sure President Trump in mentally healthy. Should the Vice President fail in his duty, the result could be catastrophic. The President could start a nuclear war with just the press of a button. The President is the commander in chief, which means he controls the military. That's how serious this is.
Before today, I had no idea that so many people had similar concerns, and have had those concerns for some time. That makes it so much more imparative that Vice President Pence acts now.
Please Mr. Vice President, do not wait till after a nuclear holocaust. Please put this Country before the President. It's your duty.
