Former president Ronald Regan’s son has called Donald Trump a “deeply damaged human being”.
Ron Reagan Jr, a radio host and political commentator, described the president as a “sociopathic, malignant narcissist”.
Speaking on MSNBC’s ‘Hardball’ programme, he compared Mr Trump to a stain on a carpet that has been “vomited” by the Electoral College.
"It needs to be removed. And that means impeachment or the 25th Amendment. This man is a danger to the world," he said.
Mr Reagan Jr, whose father was president from 1981 to 1989, has previously questioned Mr Trump’s mental state.
Carl Bernstein, the journalist who uncovered the Watergate scandal, has argued that reporting on the president’s mental health is valid.
“We have many reporters, myself included, who have talked to numerous people, Republicans on Capitol Hill, who in private will tell you they doubt the stability of this president,” he said.
However, former president Jimmy Carter recently told the New York Times that the media questioning the mental health of the president was “without hesitation” going too far.
