Current order of succession
The current presidential order of succession was established by the Presidential Succession Act of 1947, as amended.[1] The order consists of Congressional officers followed by the members of the cabinet in the order of the establishment of each department, provided that each officer must satisfy the constitutional requirements for serving as president.[2] In the table, the absence of a number in the first column indicates that the incumbent is ineligible, and an italicized number indicates that the incumbent's eligibility is uncertain.
No. Office[3] Incumbent Party
1 Vice President Mike Pence Republican
2 Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi Democratic
She can't override POTUS
But she can impeach him...twice.
And rip up his State of the Union speech on camera
And get away with it despite the fact we’ve been told for four straight years that these people would pay for their crimes “any day now.”
