Mostly False

Somebody showed me a TikTok video of a Professor at Columbia Medical School, she is saying F Trump and gobbling Tylenol with her baby in her placenta.

The claim that a Columbia Medical School professor is shown in a TikTok video saying 'F Trump' and 'gobbling Tylenol with her baby in her placenta' is mostly false because while there is documented social media activity of pregnant women taking Tylenol in defiance of President Trump's statements, there is no verified evidence that a Columbia Medical School professor made such statements or appeared in such a video, and the phrase about 'baby in her placenta' is unsubstantiated and biologically inaccurate.

What the Evidence Shows

Multiple sources confirm that President Donald Trump, currently in office as of 2025, publicly warned about potential risks of acetaminophen (Tylenol) use during pregnancy, linking it to an increased risk of autism.

However, none of the credible sources or reports identify or verify that any such TikTok video features a professor from Columbia Medical School making the specific statement "F Trump" while "gobbling Tylenol with her baby in her placenta." The phrase "gobbling Tylenol with her baby in her placenta" is biologically nonsensical since the baby is not literally inside the placenta but in the uterus; this suggests exaggeration or misinformation.

The sources also clarify that the scientific consensus does not support Trump's claim linking acetaminophen to autism. The manufacturer Kenvue and health experts emphasize that acetaminophen remains safe for pregnant women when used appropriately.tiktok.comtiktok.comPresident Trump said pregnant women should not take acetaminophen, the active...+1 more The social media trend appears to be more about political protest than medical advice.

In summary, while the broader context of pregnant women posting defiant Tylenol videos exists and some use strong language against Trump, the specific claim about a Columbia Medical School professor making those exact statements and actions on TikTok lacks verification and appears to be false or misleading.
