West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey on Monday renewed his call for Vice President Kamala Harris to invoke her powers under Section 4 of the 25th Amendment and declare that President Joe Biden is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.
The Attorney General penned a letter to Harris on the heels of the bombshell announcement from Biden that he will not seek the Democratic nomination for the presidency.
“If Biden is incapable of running, then he is incapable of fulfilling the duties of the presidency,” Attorney General Morrisey said, writing in the letter that since Biden’s pitiful debate performance, “leaders from within the Democratic party and others urged President Biden to withdraw from the race, recognizing that the increasingly enfeebled president would be unable to face the rigors of an election.”
In February, the Attorney General penned a letter to Harris, urging her to invoke the 25th Amendment. It followed the scathing report from Special Counsel Robert Hur that raised serious concerns about the 81-year-old president’s mental and physical condition.
“President Biden’s cognitive decline is of great concern to Americans, especially during these times that our nation is facing crisis after crisis both here and abroad,” Attorney General Morrisey said. “We need a president who is mentally fit.”
