Sen. J.D. Vance "terrified" a Georgia bakery worker from whom he demanded doughnuts last week, Donald Trump's beleaguered running mate admits in a new report.

Vance (R-OH) told NBC News reporters Tuesday night that he regretted his viral video-taped visit to a Valdosta doughnut shop last week.

During an appearance on "Morning Joe" MSNBC legal analyst Danny Cevallos applauded the effort special counsel Jack Smith put into going before a grand jury and getting a superseding indictment against Donald Trump related to the Jan. 6 insurrection.

Speaking with fill-in hosts Jonathan Lemire and Katty Kay, Cevallos explained that Smith trimmed down his charges against the former president which will make it harder for the conservative Supreme Court to intercede on his behalf.

Asked to "walk us through what happens next," Cevallos explained, "Normally a superseding indictment is something that strikes fear into the heart of a criminal attorney like me. It usually means that government has found more defendants or they've found more bad evidence and are charging more crimes. It's rare that you have a superseding indictment that reduces information."

"Ultimately the only thing I care about is the counts, and all four counts remain," he pointed out. "That means if the defendant is convicted the sentencing guidelines will be exactly the same. All Jack Smith's team has done is taken a look at the indictment and said 'What should we remove that insulates us?' And, yes, they removed references to Trump's attempts to subvert the DOJ and maybe install a new acting attorney general, but they keep in language about vice president Pence, which signals to me that Jack Smith's team is feeling very confident."

"They've kept all four counts and they're keeping in conduct and the Mike Pence conduct is significant because the Supreme Court suggested that this at least was entitled to the presumption of immunity," he added. "So Jack Smith is signaling that even conduct that may be entitled to a presumption of immunity, it is full steam ahead. They are not afraid of the district court and any possible hearing; they are going forward with these counts."

"So as much as, yes, this indictment has been, I guess, reduced in length, everything that matters is still in it," he continued. "This is a strategic, I think a very brilliant move to keep this indictment alive, to head off any problems at the pass before Judge Tanya Chutkan has to hold a hearing making, I think, her job even easier."

While Mormons have long been some of the most loyal Republican voters, Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign believes their distaste for former President Donald Trump gives them an opening in several states.

Appearing on CNN Wednesday, Rob Taber of the organization Latter-day Saints for Harris-Walz broke down exactly why some Mormon voters are rethinking their partisan loyalties this year, as Trump sits on the top of the Republican ticket for a third consecutive election cycle.

Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz are kicking off a bus tour in rural Georgia on Wednesday in a move that Politico's Playbook describes as "surprising."

While it may seem counterintuitive for the Democratic presidential ticket to campaign in counties that are heavily Republican, it turns out that there is precedent for this strategy being successful.

Donald Trump's legal standing has shifted dramatically in the nearly two months since the U.S. Supreme Court granted him broad immunity from prosecution.

One of the cases against him was dismissed weeks later by federal judge Aileen Cannon, but his re-election chances took a major hit after Kamala Harris replaced President Joe Biden as the Democratic Party nominee and his legal jeopardy tightened Tuesday after special counsel Jack Smith filed a new indictment in his election subversion case that carves out some conduct that could be described as official actions.
