#1 .....there is no way for the Democrats to break a tie in the Senate in order to confirm a replacement Vice President.

A "tie in the Senate" over a VP is a rather large assumptions, is it not? What am I missing ?

#6 The 25th doesn't create a vacancy.

The President remains in office. The VP gets to discharge the POTUS' "power and duties."

The 25th doesn't stipulate that the VP loses the powers of his office.

Think even a little deeper.
Uncle Joe is locked away in a kindergarten somewhere

Harris become Pres, and Nancy become VP.

Then the order Order of Presidential Succession is:

President Pro Tempore of the Senate.

Secretary of State.
(they bring back Hillary)

Secretary of the Treasury.

Secretary of Defense.

Attorney General.

Secretary of the Interior.

One thing is for sure.
No one wants to be President Pro Tempore Hillary in line with behind them.☺

#8 I bet the Democrats are looking far and wide for a Biden look-alike so they can play Dave with a pliant and predictable puppet.
