During Thursday's edition of Morning Joe, host Joe Scarborough brought up the well-worn topic of invoking the 25th Amendment.  According to Scarborough, "if we had a cabinet that was filled with people with more character...if we had a House and a Senate that took their job seriously, there would be people going up to the White House this morning saying, Mr. President, questions abound whether your are fit for this office...if this continues, we are going to ask your cabinet to take a vote on whether you are fit for office and invoke the 25th Amendment." Scarborough specifically cited the President's behavior during the cabinet meeting the day before as the justification for invoking the 25th Amendment; although he later made it sound like his foreign policy decisions warrant his removal from office: "he is pushing foreign policy initiatives that are actually going to do grave damage to this country."
