Reflecting on Donald Trump's doubling down on his attacks on Vice President Kamala Harris' racial makeup, Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson speculated on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" that there seems to be something deeply wrong with the former president.
With fill-in host Jonathan Lemire sharing Trump's smears of Harris on his Truth Social platform, the "Morning Joe" panel agreed Trump may not realize how bad it is making him look.
After MSNBC regular Mike Barnicle called Trump a "badly, deeply damaged individual," Robinson pounced.

"I would absolutely agree. Beneath all that bluster, who am I to diagnose him?" the journalist admitted. "I'm not a psychologist, but there is clearly some deep insecurity and feeling of inadequacy that causes him to continually lash out and puff himself up and adopt this air of infallibility, which is absurd."
"But that's who he is," he continued. "I think he is a really, really damaged person, and, you know, because of that and for a lot of other reasons, he's really dangerous. And he proved that in four years as president. He would prove it again if he were ever allowed near the White House again."
"This is not a well man," he concluded.
