On Monday morning, MSNBC "Morning Joe" co-host Joe Scarborough detailed the extensive gaffes and ramblings of Donald Trump that appear to be increasing with his every appearance and suggested there is good evidence that the former president is "addled."

As the MSNBC host noted, the Trump campaign is hoping to make President Joe Biden's age a central theme of their attacks, but the GOP has a serious Trump problem.

"You know, I spent a lot of time with Joe Biden. I can tell you, Joe Biden knows where he is. He knows what decade he's in, he sure as hell knows who he is running against — there's just really no comparison here," he exclaimed. "Yeah, you want to talk about who is addled? This is an easy one. Let's talk about who is addled. Who is addled is a guy who can't even remember that Barack Obama hasn't been president of the United States in eight years."

"Yeah, and you have to think, is this age?" co-host Mika Brzezinski offered. "It could be. But it also could just be the mountain of legal actions against this man, just crushing him and making him so stressed that he's literally confused."

"Because no one person could handle all the cases that he has against him, all the lawyers he has to deal with, all the lawyers he can't get. I mean, some of these cases can put him away in prison for the rest of his life," she added.

"Except for the fact he is in 2016 most of the time; even in 2016, he forgets who he ran against. He talks about the landslide victory against Barack Obama," Scarborough insisted. "Jonathan Lemire, let me bring you in here because I know you've been seeing this. He talks about the landslide against Obama. He talks about Obama so much as president of the United States, that on the radio show, [Fox host] Brian Kilmeade has to interrupt him and correct him.... his mind is scrambled eggs when he gets up there and gets tired. He really thinks that he is running against Barack Obama. just like he thought Nikki Haley was speaker of the House on January 6th."
