This. I’m guessing the insiders and Mr. Moneybags are observing plenty of evidence of mental decay. Enough to invoke the 25th.
Comment on How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?

Gotta also consider the odds that he’s not there for much longer anyway. The Project 2025/Heritage Foundation people got JD Vance in as VP as they wanted–he’s one of them.
So I’ve been predicting since he won that the 25th Amendment will be used (if something else doesn’t happen to him), probably not until after the midterms so Vance can still run for 2 more terms. They need to set up the right conditions before ousting him, which will be making him look physically incapable of continuing, like saying he’s had a stroke or something. Congress/Senate has to believe it so they’ll go along with it.

The 25th can be used for any reason, not just mental decay. We already know the magats are fine with the mental decay.

If that’s really their plan, they’ll have a rude awakening. They created this monster, and you don’t replace the person at the center of a cult of personality that easily.

That’s why they can’t go with the obvious route of saying he has dementia issues–the cult wouldn’t hear of that. But he can conveniently have a debilitating event or illness. Sure, the cult will have conspiracy theories, which is why they have to be sure to make it look plausible. But even if they have to resort to him having an “unfortunate accident”, there’s nothing the cult can really do about it, he’ll be gone. He’s just too unpredictable and uncontrollable for them to let him keep going rogue so much. Destroying the global economy and causing a worldwide depression is not part of their plans.
