CMV: The first woman president getting there because of the 25th Amendment is not a good look for female empowerment.

I've seen conservatives on Twitter trying to invoke the 25th Amendment after a clip of Joe Biden at the end of a press conference "looking confused" and the staffers asking the reporters to leave.

I don't think Kamala Harris, potentially the first female president getting to that office would be considered a success for the female empowerment movement. There would be a side note on her that detractors can say "she only got there because a man had to drop out". This would be similar to Mackenzie Bezos being the richest woman because she got half of Jeff's fortune. Detractors are saying that the man did all the hard work.

It would be better if the first woman president runs a successful primary campaign and wins the election as that says more about the nation than getting there through some roundabout back door.

edit: I wish I could see comments on why this is getting down voted.

Regardless of how a woman becomes the first president, there are going to be people complaining about how it happened. Yes, in this case people would say "blah blah only the 25th", but if she got elected in a campaign there are going to be people saying "blah blah, she only won because people voted for a woman, not because of her competence, sexism against men blah blah".

And becoming president by the 25th isn't some "roundabout back door", it's explicitly written into the system. She got elected Vice-President with and thus as a possible successor to Biden if anything happened.
