'Team Trump is flatlining — and they know it': former GOP official

After showing alternating clips of Donald Trump's rambling press conference and recent rally appearance and comparing them to clips of Vice President Kamala Harris exhorting energized crowds of Democratic voters, MSNBC host Michael Steele described the former president's campaign as being, in a best-case scenario, on life support.

Sunday afternoon, as he filled in for regular host Jen Psaki, the former chair of the Republican National Committee smirked his way through describing the current state of the 2024 presidential campaign.

"Folks, the spotlight and all the joy surrounding her is clearly driving Donald Trump just a bit crazy and he is getting desperate," he began. "Holding an hour-long rambling press conference at Mar-a-Lago and re-agreeing to debate Harris after backing out and trying to set the terms of the debate himself."

"He is getting defensive, resorting to his playbook of insults and name-calling, and rage-posting on Truth Social about crowd sizes," he continued before adding, "Here's the bottom line on all this: Team Harris is on the rise, Team Trump is flailing — I would say even flatlining."

"They know it and you and I know it," he added. "So they are getting real desperate, real defensive and real divisive but nothing they say, none of it is sticking. None of it is working and those crowds for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz? Well, they just keep getting bigger and bigger and bigger."
