If the President of the United States is unable to perform their duties:


1. Death/Resignation: The Vice President assumes the presidency, nominates a new Vice President, subject to congressional approval.

2. Temporarily unable to perform duties:
The president voluntarily transfers power to the vice president, which can be reclaimed after restoration.

3. Actual Cases:
Throughout history, examples of vice presidents succeeding after the president's death include Andrew Johnson succeeding after Lincoln's assassination (1865) and Lyndon Johnson succeeding after Kennedy's assassination (1963).
