"Dear Democratic Party, I have a question, and given how confidently you have answered it two completely different ways over the past several months, maybe one of you can finally settle it for the rest of us. Is President Trump a criminal mastermind, brilliant enough to systematically dismantle American democracy, suspend elections, and refuse to ever leave the White House? Or is he a man so cognitively diminished that several of you are now formally pushing the 25th Amendment over what you are calling "frontal lobe" decline? I teach Anatomy and Physiology for a living. I can tell you with confidence: those are not the same brain. This is what logicians call a contradictio in terminis, a contradiction in terms, where two claims cancel each other out the moment they leave your mouth in the same news cycle. You cannot argue that a man is sharp enough to outmaneuver the courts, the press, the intelligence community, and his own party to seize unprecedented dictatorial power, while also arguing he cannot remember what he had for lunch. Pick one. The Constitution does not have a clause for "dangerously brilliant and also legally incompetent." Several of your colleagues, Representative Schiff chief among them, have built entire careers warning the country that this man is plotting to never leave office, suspend the next election, and install himself as a permanent ruler. Impressive long-range strategic planning for a man you simultaneously insist cannot finish a sentence. What's next, claiming he is secretly cloning himself to personally rig fifty state elections while too senile to work the White House remote? ...oh wait. You already do both. Sometimes in the same press conference. Jim Quinn's Second Law of Liberalism covers this perfectly: if you want to know what liberals are up to, pay attention to what they accuse conservatives of doing. You shriek "dictator" and "threat to democracy" while quietly building a case to remove a duly elected president without an election, based on a diagnosis none of you are medically licensed to make. Section 4 of the 25th Amendment requires the Vice President and a majority of the Cabinet to formally declare a president unable to discharge his duties. It does not require Adam Schiff's vibes, a cable news chyron, or a trending hashtag. That is not protecting democracy. That is the very power grab you claim to be fighting, wearing a slightly different mask. I have met some confused students in eighteen years of teaching. None of them have ever managed to be more confused than a chameleon dropped in a bag of Skittles quite like this argument manages to be. But what do I know, I am only a science teacher who insists two contradictory premises cannot both be true in the same argument. We cover that before lunch."
