'He is off balance right now': MSNBC host says Dems could make a 'huge mistake' on Trump
Reacting to Donald Trump's rambling and subdued speech in Howell, Michigan, on Tuesday, MSNBC host Joe Scarborough claimed it is apparent to him that the former president is still attempting to grapple with both his legal problems and the attempt on his life.
As Scarborough sees it, the ex-president is currently off his game which could be the cause of his flailing campaign that goes beyond having to face Vice President Kamala Harris.
As he explained to his "Morning Joe" panel, Trump has made a series of unforced errors in interviews and speeches and, when given a chance to walk them back, has instead doubled down and made matters worse for his campaign.
"Trump is off balance, and he's off balance because he has been a disrupter all his life and his campaign has been disrupted and he's off balance," the MSNBC host began before warning, "There are 80, 85 days left, and if Democrats think this is the Donald Trump they are going to get for the next two or three months, they are sadly mistaken."

"It's her [Harris'] convention right now and he's off balance for a variety of reasons," he continued. "Let's also remember, so much has happened that, you know, that assassination attempt has to be weighing on his mind and it would be weighing on anybody's mind right now. This summer he went through a trial where he was found guilty, and he's -- but he had to sit there for, what, weeks and weeks."
"34 felony counts," co-host Mika Brzezinski contributed.
"Yeah, so again, I'm just saying he's off balance right now. Democrats would be making a huge mistake to think that this is the Donald Trump they are going to get between now and election day," Scarborough replied.
"Way Too Early" host Jonathan Lemire added, "Yeah, people I talk to confirm that, that he is off balance and adjusting to the change of the top of the ticket and spent years thinking he's running against Joe Biden and now he's not," Lemire remarked. "The trial did weigh on him — and he still has a sentencing coming up in a couple weeks — and the assassination attempt as well and they are trying to figure out how to hold the outdoor rallies again and it's something that does weigh on him as he was inches away from death."
