President Joe Biden wore a "Trump 2024" hat on Wednesday — and though it confused Republicans, he had a specific reason for doing so.

The president was at an event in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, to mark the anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Shanksville was the site of the United Flight 93 crash, in which passengers revolted against hijackers trying to fly the plane into a government building in Washington, D.C.

A prominent New York Times reporter revealed Wednesday on CNN that close advisors of former President Donald Trump wished he hadn't mentioned a racist conspiracy theory — but were "more concerned" about a separate failed "missed opportunity."

Maggie Haberman joined "The Situation Room" on Wednesday and said Trump likely knows he performed "sub-optimally" at his debate against Vice President Kamala Harris. She was not surprised by how easily Trump became provoked.

A prominent political commentator on MSNBC on Wednesday blasted the Trump campaign for including conspiracy theorists such as Laura Loomer, who was spotted on the former president's plane leading up to Tuesday night's debate.

Tim Miller, a writer at The Bulwark, told Nicolle Wallace on "Deadline: White House" that while there's "a lot to laugh about" that Trump and his campaign have pushed wild conspiracy theories, he noted that it's important to focus on the "serious part of this."

Republican Voters Against Trump president and longtime GOP pollster Sarah Longwell confessed that a key moment in the Tuesday debate was "stunning."

Speaking with MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace on Wednesday, Longwell said that what struck her the most was the question about the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

Billionaire megastar Taylor Swift's endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday evening is a significant development beyond a typical celebrity endorsement, former White House Communications Director Kate Bedingfield argued on CNN Wednesday — it represents a cultural pushback against former President Donald Trump's mistreatment of women.

Swift's endorsement, posted to Instagram, explicitly spoke out against Trump's promotion of fake AI imagery appearing to show her endorsing him — and signed her post "from a childless cat lady," referencing Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance's repeated attacks on childless women.

Sen. J.D. Vance knows Americans can't be influenced by a billionaire celebrity with little interest in the day-to-day problems they face.

Vance (R-OH) made a bold claim about billionaires to Fox News host Martha MacCallum on Wednesday afternoon. But he wasn't denouncing former President Donald Trump, a former reality television worth about $3.8 billion, but rather singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, who on Tuesday night threw her support behind Vice President Kamala Harris.

Following former President Donald Trump's widely panned performance in Tuesday night's debate in Philadelphia, a former California Republican Party official bluntly assessed how Vice President Kamala Harris cleaned his clock in a new analysis for his "Great Transformation" Substack.

Mike Madrid, co-founder of the anti-Trump group The Lincoln Project and who has long been bullish on Harris' chances, said that feeling was only validated further when she swung at Trump from the podium.

A Republican lawmaker who tried to dismiss former President Donald Trump's questionable responses at the debate was repeatedly cut off and checked by a CNN anchor who said he purposefully misrepresented the facts.

Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) grew increasingly testy as he fielded questions from Brianna Keilar that he tried to dismiss as mere hypotheticals — but which the CNN host insisted American voters had a right to know.

Former President Donald Trump claimed victory in Tuesday night's presidential debate against Vice President Kamala Harris when confronted by reporters — but then he repeatedly went back and forth on whether he was open to having another one.

Trump made the remarks while visiting Shanksville, Pennsylvania, the location where the fourth plane on the September 11 terrorist attacks crashed after passengers overpowered the hijackers.
