A high-profile author who has written about President Donald Trump for decades revealed on Tuesday why Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro's dance moves were so devastating for the president's psyche.

Video emerged in late November of Maduro dancing at political rallies, which seemed to enrage Trump, according to a report by The New York Times.

President Donald Trump built his brand on making moves that no one else thought possible, and his latest could be his most "stunning" yet, according to one Democratic analyst.

During a press conference on Monday, Trump made a slight reference to a video of Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro seemingly mocking Trump's dancing when asked about his motivation for arresting him over the weekend.

'Devastating for Trump': Lawmaker says Jim Jordan mistakenly gave Jack Smith secret weapon

Republicans tried their best to bury former special counsel Jack Smith's testimony against President Donald Trump — but House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) accidentally gave Smith the perfect format to speak openly and incriminatingly against Trump, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) told MS NOW's Nicolle Wallace on Tuesday.

This comes amid the fifth anniversary of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, which was the basis of one of Smith's criminal cases against Trump until the president was re-elected and ensured the case would end.
