In which of the following scenarios would Section 4 of the 25th Amendment most likely be utilized?

Section 4 of the 25th Amendment applies when the vice president and a majority of the principal officers declare that the president is unable to discharge the powers and duties of the office. President X’s rapidly worsening memory and paranoia make it difficult to perform those duties, so this is the best example. A temporary, planned absence such as surgery is generally handled under Section 3, which the president invokes voluntarily.
