Greetings,

The Biden presidency opens up a can of worms. If he is unfit to run as president; unfit to stand trial for taking and storing classified materials in his garage, how can he be fit enough to issue pardons to people who have not been charged with a crime? You can't have it both ways.

In the past, a disgruntled Pharoh might attempt to eradicate the memory of a previous Pharoh by having his name scratched off of any carving carrying that name. If Biden can be shown to be an illegitimate de…

And if he is "unfit", so can any future president be deemed "unfit". There's always a willing alternative medical opinion out there. Slippery slope.

Every mother who has sought a medical exemption for a vaccine injured child knows that another doctor can say "meh, no" to that diagnosis. 🤷

With the right incentive ("that's a nice medical license you've got there, sure wouldn't want trouble keeping it"), a corruptible doctor could cave.

The talk of removal coz "unfit" has been extraordinary, hasn't it?

Any mother of a vaccine injured child, who sought an exemption, but caved when denied that exemption, has absolutely no business being a mother - a mother's first priority is to protect her children at all costs.

Look at the wildlife outside your window there in Idaho. Watch female bears with cubs protect their young. Ever wonder where the nickname "Mama Bear" comes from? To describe a fearless mother protecting her children.

Actually, a smart mother skips the medical exemption and goes straight to the religious exemption. Our bodies are sacred. But that's not really my point. It's been exceptionally rare to talk about "removing" a president because he was "unfit". I don't disagree with Biden's degree of "unfit-ness". But the whole discussion starts us down a slippery slope. I am just encouraging you to be a bit more curious and creative about how the discussion could backfire in the future.

Jen - your point is well-taken. Our conversation probably would have evolved to this point, had Mary not gotten into her box-wine so early on a Friday morning, and offered her unsolicited opinion.

Who's Mary?
