Joe Scarborough: Trump’s Behavior Has Made the 25th Amendment ‘Null and Void’

‘Let me just say, the 25th Amendment is de facto abolished’

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: "So what an extraordinarily sad spectacle, that you have the president of the United States continuing, four months in, to push these — or three months in, to push these quack notions that actually could kill Americans. Instead of focusing on testing, instead of focusing on reopening the government in a safe way, instead of focusing on how we beat this thing when it reemerges in the fall, the president is constantly saying things that his own staff, that his own administration, that his own doctors have to correct. You know, I remember being in law school and my con law professor reading a case and saying, in effect, this case finished off the 10th amendment, for all practical purposes. Of course, that’s the amendment I hung up outside my office in Congress. That’s the amendment that Liz Cheney cited after Donald Trump talked about his total authority. But I’ve got to say, if the last two weeks haven’t completely made null and void the 25th Amendment.”
