    Apparently many liberals do not understand the use of metaphor.

    Why bankrupt individuals when you can bankrupt the entire country?

    Is that why Trump is running up Trillion Dollar Deficits?

    Mathews is a liberal. Liberals love Nazi metaphors. Liberals also love extreme hyperbole. So the question becomes, does this incident represent liberal use of hyperbole or liberal use of a Nazi metaphor??

    I'm sure you have seen my comments on the Trump budget deficits. Maybe Bernie's new slogan can be going broke faster.

    It's bringing western European style care to the US. It works over there.
    Their medical bills are far lower compared to the US.

    You're just making it all up that opening the border has such a purpose.
    Right wing fake news.

    Donald is busy trying to bankrupt the country by giving tax deductions to big companies so the stockmarkets goes up.
    No doubt Trump has a lot of stocks. But it's not repaying itself for anything. lol
    You've been had. Currently 10% of average joes taxes go towards paying the debt that Donald caused.

    And them with such huge militaries and guaranteeing the freedom of nations around the world . . . oops! . . . that applies only to the U.S. It is expensive to be the world's protector. The nations that are content to depend on the U.S. to keep them safe can afford to be socialists.

    They like to use rocks, and "flag poles" as weapons.

    Yes, but HOW is he going to do that? By outlawing private health insurance?

    If so, then the comparison to fascistic regimes isn't too far off.

    given how many times MSNBC employees has made a nazi reference in the past few years I think its safe to assume that the host wont be fired, promoted perhaps?

    Yes, it's easy to imagine it comes from a good place .. when all you think about is those minimum wage folk with toothaches.

    Of course if you start drilling (pun intended!) down a bit you can see that there's some pretty unlovely stuff behind his model.

    What race are the foreign nationals on the other side of the wall?

    Need some help with the answer? Even though I'm on the other side of the world, I'm pretty confident that there are hundreds of different races south of your border.

    I hope they don’t sack Chris. I love his non-sensical, stream-of-consciousness rants.

    Yes, you'd think; but apparently there is a company policy that you are only allowed to use the appellation in reference to Right of Center people. Chris crossed the line since you can't get farther Left of Bernie short of Mao Tse Tung . . . oops!

    People who want to retire and plan to retire also have stocks.

    At least Trump isn't directly ripping off the retirement funds of old people like Obama did when he restructured General Motors and transferred equity from investors to the UAW.

    Totally agree. I still fondly remember his anti Bill Clinton rants. As a comment that will only be appreciated by boxing fans, Mathews reminds me of Larry Merchant.

    but he is a republican, doesn't count, the tea party only comes out when it's a liberal

    if Bernie wins, every dollar spent will be the end of the world again

    So we should be the World Police instead of spending that money on health care for Americans?

    You actually support that?

    Trump likes to claim the economy is better then it's ever been

    when the economy is great, you pay back the credit card

    when the economy is great, you don't have the fed keep interest rates low

    when the economy is great, you don't have the fed dump billions and billions into the economy to keep it afloat

    The socialists in California pay for health care for illegals.
