Steve Bannon believed Trump had dementia and plotted to remove him as president, according to new book
insider@insider.com (Naina Bhardwaj) 7 hrs ago
Veteran TV producer Isa Rosen released the details in his new memoir, 'Ticking Clock: Behind the Scenes at 60 Minutes.'
Rosen also discussed his book based on his work on CBS' '60 Minutes' on Skullduggery, a Yahoo News podcast.
Trump pardoned Bannon after he was charged with defrauding his political supporters before leaving office.
Steve Bannon said he thought Donald Trump had dementia and launched a covert plan to remove him as president through the 25th Amendment, according to a new book by the veteran TV producer Isa Rosen.
Rosen shared the revelation while discussing his memoir based on his work on CBS' iconic news show 60 Minutes called Ticking Clock: Behind the Scenes at 60 Minutes,' on Skullduggery, a Yahoo News podcast.
In the memoir, released this week, he wrote that Bannon believed Trump "was suffering from early-stage dementia and that there was a real possibility he would be removed from office by the 25th Amendment."
The 25th Amendment exists for when the president is incapable of carrying out his duties.

If he thought Trump had dementia, his only action would be to take advantage of it. Removing him would have done nothing for Bannon.
