MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace on Tuesday showed viewers Donald Trump’s entire 39-minute musical episode at a town hall a day earlier as she flagged concerns about his “stability and his ability to handle anything outside of what’s been planned for him inside his bubble.”

The former president had been taking questions at the event in Pennsylvania before several disruptions prompted him to end that format and decide, instead, to sway and dance to music onstage for nearly 40 minutes.

“To give you an idea of how long 39 minutes is and how long this went on for if you were there, we’re gonna run it in its entirety,” Wallace told viewers on “Deadline: White House.”

“We’ll keep talking. We’ll leave it at the bottom of your screen, but we’re gonna put a clock up and count the minutes just to make clear, so you can experience for yourself how excruciatingly long and completely weird it is for anyone, let alone a candidate for the presidency, to cut off an event and then play his campaign soundtrack for 38 minutes while he stands and sways,” she said.

The video appeared in the corner of the screen, with a timer counting up, while Wallace continued her broadcast and interviewed several guests.

Trump’s dance party further amplified concerns about his cognitive state as the election approaches. The Republican nominee’s speech has been increasingly filled with meandering interludes, disjointed jumps from subject to subject, slurred words and incoherent or irrelevant answers to questions.

He has declined to release a detailed medical history. Vice President Kamala Harris, shared hers on Saturday and pressured Trump to do the same, drawing several furious outbursts from her opponent.
