If the President of the United States can no longer serve, the Vice President takes over as President, as per the 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
In the United States, if the President can no longer fulfill their duties due to death, resignation, removal from office, or incapacitation, the Vice President assumes the role of President. This presidential succession is detailed in the 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution , ensuring a smooth transition of power. The Vice President is the first in line for presidential succession.

If the President can no longer serve, the Vice President becomes the President according to the 25th Amendment. If both are unable to serve, the Speaker of the House is next in line, followed by the President pro tempore of the Senate and Cabinet members. This system ensures a continuous leadership structure in the U.S. government.
