The Committee to Protect Journalists told the Guardian that the President's message "undermines the media in the US and emboldens autocratic leaders around the world". The Guardian also noted the link between Trump's wrestling move in the video and the very real assault on the paper's reporter Ben Jacobs by Montana's now-representative Greg Gianforte.
Others went further than just chastising the President and instead called for his removal from office, with #25thAmendmentNow trending online in Washington, DC. The 25th Amendment to the US Constitution includes a section that allows the Vice President and majority of the Cabinet to come together to decalre the President "unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office".
GQ's special correspondent, Keith Olbermann tweeted out a call from the cabinet to invoke the amendment and "immediately remove" Trump which has now been retweeted over 28,000 times.
