One House Republican is urging Vice President Kamala Harris to try to oust Biden.
Share on email Multiple legislative avenues are being floated by rank-and-file members – with no clear consensus on what route GOP leadership may take.The amendment allows a vice president, with support from a majority of the cabinet, to declare a president unable to discharge their duties and make the vice president the acting president.
Harris spokesperson Ernesto Apreza quickly shot down the notion, telling Axios: "Vice President Harris looks forward to serving a second term with President Joe Biden."about the fallout from the debate, there is disagreement about how exactly to message on it and whether legislation is a good idea. Roy told reporters he planned to meet with the House parliamentarian to discuss his options — if any — for forcing a vote on the measure.There are different schools of thought on whether it would be better to run against Biden or an alternative, with some Republicans arguing that it would be to their advantage for Biden to remain on the ticket.
Rep. Jim Banks said he "selfishly" hopes Biden is "on the ballot in November because it will be a landslide election night for Republicans all the way down the ballot."Other Republicans suggested a fight over replacing Biden would still be good for the GOP, especially given that chatter about a replacement often passes over Harris.
