Harder. By definition. You need two thirds of the Senate in both cases but only a majority of the House for impeachment, whereas for the 25th you need two thirds of the House too.

The only scenario this works under is if a bunch of people will vote for incapacity but not impeachment.

The two-thirds of both houses is the problem here. Impeachment is “only” a majority in the House and two-thirds of the Senate. You really see a scenario where more than that happens?

If JD had that kind of political skill he wouldn't need to do this because he'd already be in charge.

Nope. The 25th doesn't work like that. It is literally easier to impeach a President than to remove them unwillingly under the 25th.

Under the 25th amendment the President can re-assume power simply by informing Congress he is able to do the job. It's not a tool for forcing them out.

What am I saying—the point of this stuff isn’t to convince anyone, it’s to reinforce the beliefs of people who are already persuaded.

I’m also struggling with the idea that this is the thing that will make someone decide that they can’t support Mandami? Because he referred to his dad’s cousin as an “aunt”? Really?

My mother’s cousin was “Aunt Edith” to me as a kid and they’re English. Can confirm, totally normal.

AFAIK it’s a term from software development that refers to things teams often do which are ultimately counterproductive. That would fit the reference here, although also this is creepy and nuts and I’m not losing sight of that.

Raptors, definitely.

They generally get donated or sold to developing nations, where nobody knows who the teams are but can use the clothing.
