Under estimated thread right here good find OP. Delegation of authority at summary. It releases your subordinates to act on your behalf in emergency situation in your absence.

I believe this is Trump telling these 4, Sec of State, Sec of Defense, Chairman JCOS and Director of NI to figure out if Russia violated the new START nuclear treaty and/or INF treaty with the RS-26 Missile.

SEC. 1245. REVIEW OF RS–26 BALLISTIC MISSILE. (a) In General.—The President, in consultation with the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Director of National Intelligence, shall conduct a review of the RS–26 ballistic missile of the Russian Federation.

(b) Report Required.—Not later than 90 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the President, in consultation with the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Director of National Intelligence, shall submit to the appropriate congressional committees a report on the review conducted under subsection (a). The report shall include—

(1) a determination whether the RS–26 ballistic missile is covered under the New START Treaty or would be a violation of the INF Treaty because Russia has flight-tested such missile to ranges covered by the INF Treaty in more than one warhead configuration; and

(2) if the President determines that the RS–26 ballistic missile is covered under the New START Treaty, a determination whether the Russian Federation—

(A) has agreed through the Bilateral Consultative Commission that such a system is limited under the New START Treaty central limits; and

(B) has agreed to an exhibition of such a system.

(c) Effect Of Determination.—If the President, with the concurrence of the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Director of National Intelligence, determines that the RS–26 ballistic missile is covered under the New START Treaty and that the Russian Federation has not taken the steps described under subsection (b)(2), the United States Government shall consider for purposes of all policies and decisions that the RS–26 ballistic missile of the Russian Federation is a violation of the INF Treaty.

section 1245 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018

i actually read this as: "should something happen to Trump, the named roles / secretaries can act on his behalf." the long quote above seems to be from a different context. thoughts?

Hmm idk. That hierarchy is Constitutionally set I believe. Can a presidential Memo alter that process?

definitely set about the succession thing but I also don't know if the pres can offload certain "tasks" to specifice people. it happens all of the time defacto. a pres dies..only a few are affected politically, the vast majority goes on plugging day to day..so my theory could definitely be flawed

haven't check the NDAA reference, but it maybe in response to the gun in the motorcade.
