'A mentally deranged, horrible man': MSNBC analyst 'freaked out' Trump could win in 2024

President Joe Biden's approval rating has dropped to the lowest levels yet amid serious concerns about his handling of the Israel-Hamas war, but panelists on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" aren't ready to count him out.

Biden fell behind Donald Trump for the first time in a hypothetical election rematch, but host Joe Scarborough said it's far too early to worry.

"Excuse me while I yawn, while Democrats left and right, who let's just say it, Democrats who have kicked Joe Biden around for decades, who kicked him around when he was vice president of the United States, those same Democrats are now coming -- oh, by the way, Democrats who said he was toast in 2020 after Iowa and New Hampshire. Now, they're saying he's toast again."

Panelist Claire McCaskill said being underestimated was the story of Biden's political career, and she said voters understand the stakes.

"Listen, there's one thing these polls are good for, and that is making sure that nobody in the Biden campaign takes any segment of our vote for granted," McCaskill said. "There is absolutely a need to do more and do better and cover the ground more thoroughly in Black and brown voters' houses all over this country. They know what's at stake. Even the young voters, they know what's at stake. They know about Dobbs, they know about our military-style weapons that are slaughtering children sitting in classrooms. They know that they're banning books and trying to look down their nose at Americans who are gay and married in this country. They're not going to stand for that, they know that the Republican Party thinks climate change is a hoax. It's just a matter of making sure that the campaign prioritizes the communication of those communities."

"I think they've got that, and I think what's hard about it, though, Joe, that we have to admit, we see Donald Trump as so completely unacceptable," she added. "A mentally deranged, narcissistic, dangerous, horrible man that only knows selfishness. The idea that anybody would be voting for him freaks all of us out."
