But I got to tell you this, Chris, from the get go, I spent more time with our NATO partners in Brussels, virtually from before the President made his decision to when he made his decision to every time since. We\u2019ve been working very, very closely together. We\u2019ve gotten the G7 together, NATO together, the U.N.

I can understand why he won\u2019t just come out and say so. First, if Dementia Joe has to be removed under the 25<sup>th<\/sup> Amendment, the cabinet along with the Vice President have to agree and sign off on a letter to Congress. Making any statements now could start things rolling, and as a cabinet officer, Blinken would have to sign the letter. The second reason is that if he made such a statement, he would be on the street within hours. (President Bumbles Dementia would simply sign the document put in front of him firing Blinken. I doubt he would know what it actually said)<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/1c\/50\/5d\/1c505d6406cc3678e1ad480852a29756.jpg?resize=444%2C250&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"444\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m of the opinion that the countdown clock has stated on Dementia Joe\u2019s removal from office. He will either resign due to ill health, (Unlikely thanks to Her Doktor Jill Biden), be removed under the 25<sup>th<\/sup> Amendment or face Impeachment and Conviction.
