Donald Trump appears "bitter" that others have been able to get more media attention than him for the past several weeks, despite his being shot at and being heralded at the Republican convention, political experts remarked Monday.

Speaking to MSNBC, former Republican Tim Miller and ex-Congresswoman Val Demings (D-FL) said the ex-president was steaming that others have pushed him from the spotlight.

Former President Donald Trump blasted ABC News correspondent Rachel Scott less than a week after she asked him about racist statements during an interview at the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) Conference.

In an interview on the right-wing War Room program Monday, Trump adviser Jason Miller pushed Lake to blame Harris for a stock market downturn.

Donald Trump chances of election success in Georgia were jeopardized when he attacked the popular Republican Gov. Brian Kemp at the weekend, according to several experts — and MSNBC's Jonathan Lemire argued Monday that the former president's personal grudges could cost his party a shot at regaining a Senate majority.

The former president lashed out at Kemp during his rally in Atlanta, where he appeared in the same arena that Vice President Kamala Harris had packed a few days earlier. Lemire told "Morning Joe" that Trump has been knocked off his game since Harris took over as the Democratic Party's presumed nominee.

A federal judge rejected Donald Trump's attempt to make his charges go away in the Jan. 6 case, and a legal expert predicted a few surprises she could have up her sleeve.

Anchor Kasie Hunt and fellow CNN panelists lost their cool Monday morning over a new development in the "freak show" that is the 2024 presidential election campaign cycle.

Surprisingly, the story does not involve Donald Trump.

Donald Trump may have cost himself and other Republicans a winnable state over the weekend by attacking the popular Gov. Brian Kemp of Georgia, according to MSNBC's Joe Scarborough.

The former president unleashed a Truth Social tirade against Kemp on Saturday and then attacked him as a "bad guy" onstage at an Atlanta rally, at which he falsely claimed that his own supporters had been prevented from entering after Vice President Kamala Harris packed the same arena earlier in the week.

Reacting to the past two weeks as the candidacy of Vice President Kamala Harris has energized the Democratic base and seemingly caught Donald Trump's campaign flatfooted, a former GOP lawmaker claimed the former president is terrified by what the future may hold.

Appearing on MSNBC on Sunday afternoon with host Alex Witt, ex-Rep Dave Jolly (R-FL) claimed the ex-president's campaign continues to show it is in disarray as his inner circle tries to push for an alternative debate hosted by Fox News instead of one already slated for ABC.

Agreeing with his fellow panelists that there could be two debates, Jolly suggested Harris should agree to doing both, but with the Fox News event second to prevent the embattled former president from pulling a fast one and canceling the ABC appearance.

Jolly also suggested Trump is losing support for his re-election at a hectic pace.

The former lawmaker advised Harris to say, "'Okay, let's do two debates. I would do ABC first and I will show up for Fox."

"Donald Trump is terrified, not just because the vice president will win that debate going toe to toe," he continued. " But, Alex, Donald Trump's campaign is in freefall right now. It is a legitimate freefall right now just as Kamala Harris' campaign is soaring. The candidate, Donald Trump, is a disaster, not necessarily his team."

"He is doing nothing right and he is bleeding support right now," he added. "So he wants the showmanship quality to come out and the made-for-tv moment and a Fox News showdown that he believes he can win."

"Be careful what you wish for, Mr. president, it's not that easy," he joked.
