    Is the MSM employing their anti-Trump 'nazi' smear rhetoric against Bernie now? And more to the point... don't they realize this is going to illustrate to Bernie supporters what has been done to Trump?

    "“I was reading last night about the fall of France in the summer of 1940 and the general, Reynaud, calls up Churchill and says, ‘It’s over,’” Matthews said on air on Saturday night.

    “And Churchill says, ‘How can that be? You’ve got the greatest army in Europe. How can it be over?’ He said, ‘It’s over.’” "

    “So I had that suppressed feeling,” Matthews also said.

    This in reference to Bernie's recent crushing victory in Nevada.

    Surely the MSM can't be this stupid...

    There is a lot of confusion on the left. They haven't gotten proper talking points since Bloomberg tanked the debates. They simply don't know what to say or do. The internal strife in Lalaland is tearing their party apart...

    Since the 90s, Chris Matthews has been the Joe Biden of television where gaffes and outright BS are concerned. It is amazing to me he has remained employed this long, and I wonder who in the hell has his audience been all these years? So this latest gaffe is not even remotely surprising. What is surprising is that one of the five people watching MSNBC had the gumption to make a stink about it.

    I don't know much about Matthews personally (don't watch MSNBC), but this really just came off to me as him trying to work in that quote "it's over." As in the D primary is over.

    Despite expectations from the D establishment that they could effectively counter a Bernie nom, the primary was over almost immediately with no real opposition. Just like the Nazi's into France in a little historical event you might have heard of. What was it... umm...

    The French Revolution.
