During a panel discussion on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” Monday, Mark Halperin said that “almost everything” Donald Trump has done since becoming the presumptive Republican nominee has played directly into Hillary Clinton’s hands.
“He’s supposed to be making that massive pivot that he told Mika he was going to make, to the center to be more likable,” noted host Joe Scarborough. “All he’s doing is fighting [crscore]Paul Ryan[/crscore], fighting [crscore]Elizabeth Warren[/crscore], fighting everybody.”
“And it’s playing right into Hillary Clinton’s hands,” added Halperin. “Because she’s going to talk about policy, about things like the cost of college, and he’s going to be talking about petty fights.”
“Since this became a presumptive general election fight between the two of them, almost everything Trump has done has played into Hillary Clinton’s hands. Almost everything.”
