According to a report from CNN's Alayna Treene, the change from President Joe Biden to Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democrat's likely presidential candidate is creating problems for Donald Trump on the stump.
Reporting from St. Cloud, Minnesota, where Trump held a rally late Saturday night, Treene reported on a "notable" moment in the ex-president's Saturday speech where he was clearly "struggling."
Speaking with CNN hosts Victor Blackwell and Amara Walker, Treene explained that Trump is on unsure footing on how exactly to attack Harris, with the correspondent telling the hosts, "He also made some personal attacks on her saying that, going after her laugh when he was comparing her to perhaps Margaret Thatcher saying Margaret Thatcher didn't laugh like that."

"But I also want you to listen to this it's moment because I found this very interesting as well. I think it shows how Donald Trump is struggling a bit to adapt to the new playbook," she added before showing a clip of a rambling Trump stumbling and saying, "Sarcasm doesn't work when you have a crooked press. You know, when I imitated him — because Biden — and I don't want to waste a lot of time because it's over now, right? He's gone, I told you he would be. I told you he wasn't going to make it!"
"Victor and Amara, I found that really notable honestly because I think it exemplifies what I'm hearing in my conversations with Donald Trump's senior advisers, which is they are still figuring out the best way to define Harris," Treene explained.
