CNN political analyst Ana Navarro got into a spirited clash with Republican strategist Lee Carter on Tuesday about the role that political rhetoric is playing in the current climate of violence in the United States.

During the discussion, Carter echoed the Trump campaign's argument that labeling former President Donald Trump as a threat to democracy directly inspired the two recent assassination attempts on him.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough predicted that Donald Trump would cash out his Truth Social stock and wreck the company to pay off his staggering debts.

New York Times investigative reporters Russ Buettner and Susanne Craig appeared Tuesday on "Morning Joe" to discuss their new book, “Lucky Loser: How Donald Trump Squandered His Father’s Fortune and Created the Illusion of Success,” and they concluded with a look at the Republican presidential nominee's current financial situation.

A conservative columnist has just two words for Donald Trump's and Sen. J.D. Vance's attacks on liberal rhetoric they blame for two recent attempts on the former president's life.

"This whole thing has gotten," Jonah Goldberg said on CNN Tuesday morning, "really dumb."

An MSNBC host and two guests shredded former Donald Trump and his new business partner late Monday following the former president's announcement earlier in the night that he was launching his own cryptocurrency exchange platform.

Trump announced during a livestream on X that he, along with a family friend, some of his sons and crypto enthusiasts were launching World Liberty Financial. Trump said his sons got him interested in crypto.

A presidential historian accused a Republican strategist on CNN on Monday night of trying to lay a trap during a heated discussion over the role political rhetoric played in the second assassination plot against former President Donald Trump.

The tense discussion devolved into shouting multiple times on CNN's "NewsNight" with host Abby Phillip.

Former President Donald Trump got a blunt fact-check from a key media figure after suggesting on his X Spaces event on Monday that Russia and China will cease to be adversaries of the United States if he is elected president again.

"Russia, China, various places — I don't know that they're enemies," said Trump. "I think we'll get along great with China. I think we'll get along great with Russia. I want to get Russia to settle up with Ukraine."

A former White House director of strategic communications for Donald Trump called for toning down "political rhetoric" following the second assassination plot against Trump — and called her old boss "one of the biggest offenders."

Alyssa Farah Griffin joined CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins on "The Source" on Monday night and said the conversation needs to be about how liberals and conservatives talk about each other. That includes Trump.

In the wake of the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, his allies are once again demanding that Democrats stop calling Trump a "threat to democracy," claiming this incites violence.

But Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) took it a step further in a Fox News interview on Monday: he demanded Vice President Kamala Harris take down any campaign ad mentioning Project 2025, an unpopular policy framework linked to the former president.

Donald Trump's running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), on Monday said there's a "big difference" between Republicans and Democrats: "No one has tried to kill Kamala Harris."

Vance's comment came during a speech he gave at a Georgia Faith & Freedom Coalition dinner in Atlanta, according to CNN.

A Florida sheriff remarked Monday that the suspect in a second assassination plot targeting former President Donald Trump appeared as calm as if he was heading to church when he was arrested.

Martin County Sheriff William Snyder told CNN anchor Erin Burnett that suspect Ryan Routh was stopped in a "chaotic" scene. Around 15-20 armed deputies in body armor stopped Routh and blocked traffic in both directions. A police dog unit and a helicopter were also involved in the stop.

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) wants answers after former President Donald Trump was the target of a second assassination plot at Mar-a-Lago — and she wants to enlist the help of tech billionaire Elon Musk.

Boebert weighed in on the matter during a Monday evening interview with the right-wing cable network Newsmax.

As the U.S. grapples with a second assassination plot in three months, a former campaign adviser for Hillary Clinton lamented that Donald Trump has chosen to escalate rhetoric during a dangerous time where the country is a "tinderbox."

Speaking on a CNN panel Monday afternoon, Karen Finney told Wolf Blitzer that while not much is known about the motives behind the first attempted assassination and that we're still "learning' about the second, there is a common thread.

A former U.S. Senator is calling out Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) over his weekend comment that he "creates stories" to illustrate his point, even if they aren't true.

Speaking on Nicolle Wallace's "Deadline: White House," Claire McCaskill, a Missouri Democrat, said that Vance is a wordsmith and his book makes it clear. So, when he alleged they "create stories" like what happened in Springfield, Ohio, it says a lot.
