1:31:22
Yes!
1:31:46
Madam Vice President,
the attorney general is here.
1:31:54
- Thank you for coming, Andrew.
- Good that you're here.
1:31:59
You want my interpretation of what the
Constitution says about the situation?
1:32:04
Yes. Andrew,
my understanding is...
1:32:07
that if the president is out of contact
in a military situation...
1:32:11
the secretary of defense
is in charge as second in command.
1:32:14
- Yes, of course.
- Good. Then that settles it.
1:32:17
It doesn't settle it at all.
1:32:20
The president is not merely out
of contact. He is also under duress.
1:32:25
His family is held hostage,
possibly himself a hostage.
1:32:29
It creates an incapacity to discharge
the office under the 25th amendment.
1:32:35
Surely just as if he'd had a stroke.
1:32:38
I think the president would dispute
that any incapacity exists.
1:32:42
It exists if a majority of the cabinet,
including yourself, says it exists.
1:32:48
The president may be alive,
but he may not be the president.
1:32:53
Madam Vice President?
I think you need to see this.
