According to a former Donald Trump White House communications official, the former president's rhetoric is reaching "unhinged" levels as he scrambles to return to the Oval Office.

Speaking with MSNBC host Jen Psaki, Sarah Matthews — who quit following the Jan. 6 insurrection — claimed Trump's open embrace of extremist racist rhetoric should be alarming to anyone who has watched him recently.

"I'm sure you've been watching, because he's been so outspoken in the recent days and weeks, and you are someone, I know from the role, you probably read speeches, you edited speeches, you are very familiar with how he talks.," Psaki prompted. "As you are watching, do you think he's gotten worse, more unhinged?"

"I do think he's gotten more unhinged in his rhetoric," Matthews replied. "Obviously, Donald Trump's first four years in office were marked by lots of controversies. but I think that the type of rhetoric that he is using today, it's really concerning."

"It's almost Hitler-esque in a way, when he talks about immigration, poisoning the blood of our country," she continued. "He is trying to prey on people's worst instincts and get them angry and riled up; that is something he tends to do, but it's just the rhetoric that he is using, it's really concerning to me now."

Donald Trump's victory speech in South Carolina after winning the Republican Party presidential primary drew a mixture of laughter and stunned reactions on MSNBC Saturday night that led to more questions about his fitness to not only be re-elected but also to run for the presidency a third time.

As members of the panel noted, the former president went to great lengths to thank his family members and their spouses but made a glaring omission by forgetting his son Eric Trump and his wife Lara whom he has endorsed to become co-chair of the RNC.

Asked for comment about the whole affair, MSNBC host Rachel Maddow pointed to the 'incoherence" of the speech — where the former president also misidentified the supporters standing behind him — and said his speech was the kind of "schtick" the public has become accustomed to.

"There is all of the weirdness of it, " she told her co-hosts before issuing an exasperated, "What are you talking about!?"

Calling Trump "Uncle ramble standers, " she continued, "Trump is rambling and incoherent even when he is at his best early in the evening."
