Reacting to Donald Trump's continuous late-night tirades on Truth Social, as well as his ugly "Rot in hell" attack on special counsel Jack Smith on Christmas day, MSNBC host Rev. Al Sharpton said the ex-president's legal problems are getting to him.

Speaking with fellow MSNBC host Alex Witt on Saturday, Sharpton pointed out Trump shows all the signs of being "rattled" as of late.

With Witt pointing out that Sharpton has known Trump for years, she asked, "Rev, what do you make of all of this?"

"I think Donald Trump is more rattled than people think about the 91 felonies he is facing, the four cases, and civil suit," Sharpton began. "I think that he is showing publicly now that he is becoming even more unhinged, even though many of us didn't think it was possible."

"Because how do you randomly just do all of that," he continued, "unless there is some deep-seated middle-of-the-night anxiety that he is trying to act like a tough guy but he really has concerns?"

During an appearance on MSNBC on Saturday morning, former Watergate prosecutor Jill Wine-Banks advised the Republican party to think twice about making Donald Trump their 2024 presidential nominee when there is a reasonable chance the Supreme Court could make him ineligible to serve should he win.


Speaking with fill-in host Charles Coleman Jr., the legal analyst said she feels the decision by the Colorado Supreme Court that the former president should not be allowed to run for office based on the 14th Amendment is solid and that the Supreme Court would likely agree.

Having said that, she explained the GOP could be saddled with a candidate at the top of the ticket who would be barred from taking office if he should win in November.

"I just see this as a very clear case of fact and law, coming together, with no possible conclusion other than that he is not eligible to be on the ballot and he is not eligible to hold office," she told the MSNBC host. "So you might say he could be on the primary ballot because it's up to the states and the state political parties. but why put someone on the ballot who then could not be inaugurated, because he can't hold office?"

"That would be much worse to me, than taking him off the ballot, so that the people can choose from people who are qualified," she added.

'It seems to me that if you can bar someone who's not old enough or who is not a natural born citizen, or who hasn't lived in the United States long enough as a U.S. citizen, natural born, then you can also bar someone who doesn't meet the 14th Amendment, Section 3 qualification requirements," she later added.

Infighting within the Republican Party's ranks has not only been apparent in the halls of Congress: It's now also threatening the stability of the GOP's operations in a state that's played a deciding role in the last two presidential elections.

According to a Saturday report in the New York Times, eight of Michigan's 13 Republican congressional district Republican Party chairs have now co-signed a letter asking Michigan GOP chair Kristina Karamo to resign and "put an end to the chaos." The letter came after approximately 40 of the party's state committee members called for a meeting to discuss Karamo's future by the end of the year. However, that meeting has yet to take place. Meanwhile, the Mitten State's Republican leaders are growing more anxious by the day about their party's outlook next year.
