President Donald Trump's neglect of domestic issues as he pursues a deeply unpopular new war in Iran is dragging his numbers down to record lows, MS NOW's Ari Melber said on Tuesday, and turning some of his former most loyal disciples against him.

"The public has spoken, and they continue to speak against Trump," said Melber.

Democrats remain stuck with weak favorability numbers despite winning a series of special elections and being poised in most polls to win the midterm elections in November, veteran Democratic strategist James Carville told MS NOW's Ari Melber on Monday.

But there's a simple reason for that, and an equally simple way they can fix the problem, he added.

Legendary Democratic strategist James Carville told MS NOW's Ari Melber on Monday that President Donald Trump is reaching all-time lows with the public — and upcoming elections give Democrats a chance to twist the knife.

Carville and Melber focused in particular on a moment at Trump's latest press event when he walked out on a question about gas prices spiking.

The story of Attorney General Pam Bondi's rise, fall, and firing is the story of the Trump administration failing to bend the federal courts to their will, said MS NOW's Ari Melber on Friday — and taking it out on the woman given that impossible task.

"Washington is still absorbing Trump's firing of Attorney General Bondi yesterday after a brief 14 months on the job, and she was often overshadowed in terms of what her general duties required by her key failures on Epstein," said Melber. "As part of Trump's steady drip of frustrations with her, the journal reports, Bondi stoked expectations about releasing an Epstein client list. She raised the bar on herself and then later, basically all but conceded she was lying, just as she lied to MAGA influencers by handing them binders claiming to contain Epstein files, which did not a kind of fraud against your own base, daring them to speak out."

President Donald Trump has lost his ability to do one of the most important parts of his political formula, Vanity Fair's Molly Jong-Fast argued to MS NOW's Ari Melber on Tuesday's edition of "The Beat" — and it's causing his base to fall to pieces.

"So when he runs on, hey, one thing I'm going to do is lower prices or have no forever wars or release the Epstein files — every last big promise, with the exception, perhaps, of hardline immigration, has been contradicted," said Melber.

MS NOW's Ari Melber on Thursday exposed what he framed as a glaring act of MAGA hypocrisy — playing a side-by-side clip of right-wingers melting down over Bad Bunny's Spanish-language Super Bowl halftime show while Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered an entire address in Spanish.

"Nobody understood a thing!" Fox News host Jesse Watters bemoaned to viewers about the half-time show.

The Trump administration's criminal fraud charges against the anti-hate group watchdog the Southern Poverty Law Center are haphazardly conceived and doomed to failure, former federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann told MS NOW's Ari Melber on Thursday.

"Let's start there," said Melber, himself a lawyer by training. "Your view of the case legally. And if it doesn't have legal merit, what is it?"

As the Supreme Court prepares to hear arguments about President Donald Trump's executive order to rewrite the 14th Amendment to the Constitution and abolish birthright citizenship, former federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann broke down the absurdity of the government's position on MS NOW — and predicted it would be smacked down resoundingly.

"I hate to go out on a limb and predict what's going to happen, but let's just say widely, widely within the legal community, the question is how close to 9-0 will this decision be against the administration?" Weissmann told anchor Ari Melber, himself an attorney.
