    If we’re being pedantic, Harris already served as acting president for 1h25m on November 19, 2021 while Biden underwent a colonoscopy. If hypothetically Biden had died or resigned exactly 2 years into his term (January 20, 2023 12pm ET), and Harris assumed the presidency for the remaining two years, her total time would be over 2 years and she would be ineligible for a second term.

      Yeah I actually brought that up in my top-level reply. But does the two years count the time spent as Acting President?

      I don’t know. It does count, it’s part of my top-level comment but I have the shittiest memory in the universe.

      I’m always pedantic, except when I’m not 😂

        So you are not always pedantic. So you are not really pedantic if you said you are always but are not… unless you were pedantic about saying you are not always pedantic?

        In that case, could she have her new VP take over for a few hours to negate that time she accumulated previously?
