2025 civics test · Question 40 of 128 · System of Government

If the president can no longer serve, who becomes president?

In Chinese 如果总统不能再履职,谁将成为总统?

Official answer

  • The Vice President (of the United States)(美国)副总统

Why this is the answer

If the president dies, resigns, or is removed from office, the Vice President becomes president. The Constitution provides for this, and the 25th Amendment makes it clear. The vice president is first in the line of succession, which means the country always has a leader ready to step in.
