Trump's campaign 'hobbled' going into last week before election: MSNBC guest
According to political analyst Mark Leibovich, Donald Trump's campaign may not have time to recover from the stumbles of the past week with less than a week before voters head to the polls.
Appearing on MSNBC's "Way Too Early," the Atlantic columnist was asked by host Jonathan Lemire what direction voters appear to be going and Leibovich noted the former president's much-maligned Madison Square Garden rally was a setback from which he has little to no time to recover from.
"Well, I mean, I think Trump's closing argument has been really muddled, as you kind of would expect," he told the host. "He is a muddled messenger at this point."

"The Madison Square Garden event the other day has really hobbled him at the end," he then added. "It's not the kind of thing –– I don't care how glib they are about it –– that you want to be talking about in the final days. It is an ugly message."
"You can say the Access Hollywood thing in 2016 he survived, but this was uglier. It was a sanctioned, current political event that is fresh in everyone's mind," he added.
