A CNN interview with Rep. Tom Massie (R-KY) by host Kate Bolduan dissolved into an ugly squabble when he continued to insult her and she hit back by asking if he was insulting her intelligence — to which he smirked.

What started out as a discussion about the Iowa caucus took a turn when the topic of anti-Semitism came up with regard to a House resolution that only he voted against. Massie then began to talk over the host, which caused her to cut him off and state, "I understand that you're passionate about what you want to say. Let me ask the question, then you can respond."

A former attorney for Donald Trump says the ex-president's legal campaign has been left rudderless — and he reserved special criticism for his most high-profile lawyer, Alina Habba.

Tim Parlatore, who represented Trump during the FBI raid of his Mar-a-Lago estate regarding storage of classified documents, was talking to CNN’s Laura Coates when he made the remarks.

During a segment on polling showing older voters are abandoning Donald Trump in droves, MSNBC host and "Morning Joe" regular Jonathan Lemire suggested Trump's being back in the spotlight is reminding people that he is not all there and the "crazy" is coming out again.

Speaking with co-host Joe Scarborough, Lemire said that the ban of Trump on X, formerly known as Twitter, has kept people from seeing his daily diatribes since his Truth Social platform has such little reach.

However, now that the former president is in the news on a daily basis due to his crushing legal problems, people are recalling the chaos that accompanies him — and they are balking at voting for him.

"It may not be until the spring or summer when Americans start paying attention because right now most Americans aren't. They are simply not paying attention," Lemire explained. "When they do, the [President Joe] Biden camp believes even if they're lukewarm on the president, have reservations about his age, whatever it might be, they'll not want to go back to the chaos of Donald Trump."

"The people simply haven't heard Donald Trump in a while, he's become background noise," he continued. "And his reach is so much smaller than it used to be. We can't overlook the fact, the downgrade from the audience he had on Twitter to now Truth Social— no one hears that, those tweets don't break through. His campaign is more disciplined but he is not."

He elaborated, "The crazy doesn't break through because it is confined. Confined to the conservative news media space and when it starts breaking through to the wider public and Americans start listening, the Biden campaign believes his numbers will go down, and that's to their advantage."

Reflecting on the closing arguments in the $370 million financial fraud trial in Manhattan that has engulfed Donald Trump, former prosecutor Charles Colemann Jr. claimed the former president did himself no favors with his rant when allowed to speak by Judge Arthur Engoron.

Speaking with host Jonathan Lemire on MSNBC's "Way Too Early," Coleman was asked about Trump's diatribe where he attacked both his prosecution and court officials that led Engoron to warn the former president's lawyers to "control your client."

Asked if Trump helped or hurt his case with the judge who holds the former president's financial, future in his hands, the former prosecutor said it could hardly have gone worse for Trump.

"I guess it was to no one's surprise that Trump burst into that rant yesterday," host Lemire prompted. "What's your reaction, though, as to what role it could play in the outcome? Did he help or hurt himself?"

"Well, Jonathan, in the long run, I do think that he hurt himself," Coleman replied. "I think that what he was trying to do was force the judge into a position where, by denying him an opportunity to speak, he would have created an issue for appeal for himself."

"Judge Engoron basically gave him the rope, and he hung (sic) himself, predictably," he continued. "What he ended up doing was creating a space where this is one less thing that becomes an appealable issue in the long run for an appeal. That he might be able to go back and say, 'Look, I was treated unfairly and my rights were abridged in some way, shape, form or fashion.'"

"Kudos to the judge for allowing this to happen. I believe it was a calculated risk by the bench. He understood that there was a risk that this could happen, but, ultimately, it didn't play a factor in the way Donald Trump wanted it to," he concluded.

Former President Donald Trump might be saddled with a $370 million tab that his former fixer attorney believes "he can't afford".

Come Jan. 31, when Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron is expected to deliver his verdict, it could send the 45th president into financial distress.
