This is not about Trump – Pelosi is straight up laying the groundwork to immediately replace Biden with Harris if they win
They have to raise it as an issue now so they can say it was in response to Trump; it would be too obvious to raise it for the first time during a Biden presidency.
Democrats unveil bill creating panel to gauge president's 'capacity'

House Democrats on Friday unveiled legislation creating a panel to gauge a president's capacity to perform the job — and potentially remove the commander in chief from office in cases of decided debility.
Sponsored by Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), a former professor of constitutional law, the bill would create a 17-member panel charged with judging the president's fitness — and empowered to remove that figure when deficiencies are determined.
In such a case, the vice president would take over.
"This is not about President Trump; he will face the judgment of the voters," Pelosi told reporters Friday.
"But he shows the need for us to create a process for future presidents."
The proposal has no chance of being enacted, with Congress on recess and the Senate and White House currently controlled by Republicans.
Indeed, GOP leaders have already dismissed it as a political stunt.
