No.
- She would have to vacate her seat in Congress, as one cannot hold multiple federal offices, at the same time. As her constituent, I want her right where she is.
- That scenario would overlook one little Constitutional provision. We have a Vice President. He does hold "precedence," over the Speaker of the House, in the line-up for President.

That's not constitutional. If a President is removed, the Vice President takes over.

I meant if Pence passed it on for one reason or another.

They should do what they did with The Apprentice and have Arnold Schwarzenegger be the guest host. Trump can then taunt him by saying that the approval figures have gone down.

No. Biden is certified. He will be the next POTUS unless Trump has one of his goons murder the man. Then it will be Harris.

No; let's have a game show, Who Wants to Be President?; the daily winner gets to be President for a day until Biden takes over. Contestants have to answer questions about how the government functions; the Constitution; how to pronounce words such as "Yosemite" correctly (hint: it's not "Yo! Semite!"); etc. These will indicate that they're more qualified and competent than the security risk that holds the office now.

Harrison Ford from "Air Force One" (1997) could then announce his term in office with: " You know who I am... I'm President Of The United States!" ... Finally, Bill Pullman from "Independence Day" (1996) can make a speech about how we are about to celebrate our "Independence" from Trump!
