With the 2024 presidential election just three days away, former Republican National Committee chair Michael Steele told Democrats that they "should feel good about Tuesday" –– and then took a jab at Donald Trump's rabid followers.

From his perch as a co-host on MSNBC's "The Weekend," Steele claimed Donald Trump's campaign botched his re-election chances by outsourcing get-out-the-votes efforts which is key to winning elections.

Addressing his co-hosts and Democrats who are worried about the election, he stated, "You should feel good going into Tuesday, folks. I'm just telling you: when Charlie Kirk and Elon Musk are running your ground game, baby, you should feel good about Tuesday," before adding, "Democrats, stop wetting beds."

Following up after co-host Symone Sanders Townsend expressed her reservations about Vice President Kamala Harris voters getting too complacent, Steele replied, "No one has ever doubted that, although I don't think it is going to be as close as you think."

"The reality of it is, elections are not just about what everybody is talking about up here" he elaborated while holding his hand over his head. "Elections are also about what is bubbling up from the ground. what is bubbling up from the ground are a lot of things that don't have to do with just the crazy of Donald Trump. It is how women are looking at this race. It is how young people are looking at this race. It is how our seniors, our elderly –– because they are looking at their grand kids."

"Trust me, we have seen this now in three election cycles, with people at the last minute facing the future for their children and grandchildren and this thing we call democracy, this constitutional republic we have and, by the way for all of you MAGA idiots out there that don't think they are the same thing –– they are," he continued.

"The reality of it is, they think about that and that matters to them," he added. "We have seen that play out now not once, not twice, but three times since 2018. I think that this is something that you can't discount, in terms of how this election breaks at the ballot box for a lot of voters."
