If this doesn’t violate the Terry Rule, then R.I.P. Terry Rule.

25th Amendment. Now.

In spite of mishandling the pandemic crisis and his non compos mentis COVID assertions, Trump is unlikely to be removed by the 25th Amendment, given that all he has to do is submit a written declaration that he's fit to serve.  "I don't like him at all" is not a reason to invoke the 25th amendment.  

Ironically, given the deterioration of his faculties, Biden is probably more likely to be relieved through the 25th amendment process during his presidency than Trump is during the rest of his term.

Unfortunately the 25th amendment doesn't allow removing a president because he is an idiot.

Huh? Compared to the incumbent? Is this the Twilight Zone?

Whatever the merits of Trump’s or Biden’s mental competence, lets keep this relevant to COVId-19.
