'Trump is getting even crazier' – and people inside his campaign know it: Morning Joe

Trump lawyer's 'optimistic' prediction about sentencing burned down by ex-prosecutor

Any hope Donald Trump might have had after his legal team suggested he may not be sentenced after being convicted on 34 felony counts was shot down by a former U.S. attorney during an appearance on MSNBC on Sunday afternoon.
