Former President Donald Trump's bizarre news conference at Mar-a-Lago on Thursday is making his advisers pound their heads on their desks, said former Trump administration communications chief Anthony Scaramucci on CNN.

Furthermore, he added, it doesn't bode well for Trump's own mental state and his confidence in the election, following Vice President Kamala Harris' rapid rise as the replacement nominee for President Joe Biden.

Former President Donald Trump explained why he stopped wearing a large bandage on his ear soon after the Republican National Convention.

At a press conference at Mar-a-Lago Thursday, Trump was asked if he had completely healed after a bullet nicked his ear during an assassination attempt.

Former President Donald Trump lashed out Thursday at claims that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech had a larger crowd than his "Stop the Steal" rally on Jan. 6, 2021.

During a press conference at Mar-a-Lago, Trump was challenged on his insistence that there was a peaceful transfer of power after he lost the 2020 election.

Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign slammed former President Donald Trump over a press conference that saw him compare himself to Martin Luther King Jr. and boast of his popularity with North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong Un.

"A feeble Trump holds a press conference to lie and yell about his noticeably smaller rally crowd sizes," the Harris campaign tweeted.

In an apparently unscripted rant on Thursday, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump falsely claimed "the presidency was taken away from Joe Biden."

Trump began a press conference at Mar-a-Lago with unexpected remarks about Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign, calling her "nasty."

Fox News contributor Marie Harf explained that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump's recent "whining" about Democratic nominee Kamala Harris is a sign that the former president is "panicking."

During a panel discussion on Fox News, host John Roberts asked Harf which campaign had a better strategy.

Donald Trump is scheduled to make his first public appearance in days at an impromptu news conference from his Mar-a-Lago estate Thursday.

The former president announced the event just hours before amid questions about why he had not been seen on the campaign trail for days.

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell said his plan to stop voter fraud is working because he's already caught "many, many, many" perpetrators.

During an interview this week with the Christian Flashpoint program, Lindell complained that Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz, the governor of Minnesota, was pushing for undocumented immigrants to become illegal voters.

On Thursday morning MSNBC's Jen Psaki stated she thinks Donald Trump won't boot floundering Sen. J.D. Vance as his running mate while at the same time suggesting the former president likely sees the Ohio Republican as a major drag on his bid to be re-elected now.

Speaking with "Morning Joe" host Mika Brzezinski, Psaki suggested that Trump is likely watching the relatively obscure Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) becoming an instant celebrity and second-guessing his selection of Vance.

As she pointed out, every time the former president watches Walz wow a crowd, it is probably driving him to distraction.

Quoting former ex-Sen. Claire McCaskill's observation, "Tim Walz is who J.D. Vance wants to be," Psaki added that the folksy Walz, " ... is why he's driving Donald Trump so crazy. He is legit, authentically an American regular guy you could talk to in a hardware store. That's not who J.D. Vance actually is even if that's who he presents himself as on paper. That's part of the problem."

"Even more, Jen, Tim Walz really supports his candidate and is there to support her and believe in her through and through and always did," host Brzezinski contributed. "J.D. Vance hated Trump, literally hated him and said horrific things about him. He was an anti-Trumper of the best order, so I'm not sure how he figures out who he is at this late date. It's a struggle."

"Yeah," Psaki agreed. "Yeah, look, in politics, we've all been around it a long time, voters, the American public can sniff inauthenticity; this guy is not authentic. He doesn't like Trump. He's not presenting himself as who he was for many decades before he had this kind of about-face to try to connect with the MAGA world."

"People recognize it, voters are not dumb, they're smart," she added. "That's a root problem for J.D. Vance, is that he is just not authentically who he presented himself to be at all."
