Media floated 25th Amendment for Trump hundreds of times while in office, viral video shows

A viral video montage has emerged of prominent figures in the liberal media calling on government officials to invoke the 25th Amendment on former President Trump while he was in office.

The montage, created by NewsBusters video editor Bill D’Agostino, noted that media members pushed the 25th Amendment narrative over 600 times during Trump’s White House tenure.

The compilation of major media voices was part of a larger report published by the Media Research Center, which noted that MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell brought up the idea of declaring Trump unfit for presidential duties less than a month after his inauguration.

In December 2017, "Morning Joe" host Joe Scarborough said a close associate of Trump on the campaign trail told him the then-presidential candidate had "pre-dementia."

Scarborough also suggested that "everybody" who’s known Trump for years has said he has "mentally devolved." The MSNBC co-host then said he wanted to know "when it’s safe" to start talking about whether Trump should be taken off his presidential duties.

Scarborough’s comments came a month after he urged Trump’s cabinet and Republicans to use the 25th Amendment.

"What is the cabinet waiting for?" he asked at the time.

His co-host and wife, Mika Brzezinski, pushed for the use of the 25th Amendment on multiple occasions, calling Trump "not fit to lead" and "not well."

Then-CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin discussed the issue the following September when he said that the "mere fact" the 25th Amendment was allegedly discussed by people close to Trump suggested a degree of "unease or even panic" about the way the then-president conducted himself.
