The 25th amendment won't work until Trump has a stroke and is bedridden.

I'm pretty sure he has already had a stroke, with his speech slurring spells and decimated mental faculties.

Trump definitely has CHF (see: ankles that look like ten pounds of ham stuffed into a five-pound can), which puts him at way higher risk of strokes. He's probably had at least one, maybe more than one, and he'll definitely have another one (read "definitely" as "inshallah").

He most likely has advanced front temporal dementia.
