Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – A thing can not happen in the United States (US). On Friday, (11/19/2021), President Joe Biden suddenly transferred power to Vice President Kamala Harris.
This suddenly made Kamala became the first female ‘acting President’ and worked in the West Wing of the White House, the US president’s unit of work. Then how did Kamala suddenly become the ‘President’ of that superpower?
This is because Biden will have to perform his first annual routine physical examination since taking office and will be under anaesthesia. This procedure requires intense and routine medical treatment for 85 minutes.
“Given the current circumstances, I have decided to temporarily transfer the powers and duties of the office of the US President to the Vice President during the brief period of his procedure and recovery,” Biden said. CNN International.
Biden himself became the oldest active president in the history of Uncle Sam’s country. The man who was once Vice President in the Obama era is now 79 years old.
This transfer of the scepter itself is a procedure that has never happened before in US history. The same thing happened during the era of President George W. Bush. At that time, Vice President Dick Cheney gained presidential powers several times due to Bush undergoing routine colonoscopy.
