I think Pence needs an intervention and counseling.

I'm not joking. He is not living in reality if he thinks this is even possible "... telegraph to our allies and adversaries that we have a fulling functioning government..."

Do we have two incapacitated leaders?

I don't think him saying words and saying we're going to project is going to cut it.

...I'd be surprised that he didn't unleash it as soon as Pence "betrayed" him by, you know, actually doing is duty, and the only thing he could legally possibly do anyway, in the Electoral College vote count.

And since you're too stupid to have realized that days ago, the 25th amendment followed by your resignation, Mikey. Our allies will feel much more assured, and our adversaries will feel more cautious, with Pelosi in charge.
