Can someone tell my why Chris Matthews

[Blue Idaho]

Has such a hard on going for Donald Trump? I swear that guy has such a crush going for the Donald he can't even think straight. I swear the old fart is losing it...

1. He has a thing for alpha males

Especially those who thump their chests and fling feces.

2. What a freak... nt.

8. I've noticed that.

He seems overly impressed with Trump's embarrassing machismo act. I think Matthews has a deeply internalized sexist perception of the world.

Also, it's strange that he's still under the impression that Trump is a 'political genius', despite all evidence to the contrary. I could understand this more (maybe) in the first few months of his campaign, but now?

3. He seems to always want to act the contrarian when it comes

to political received opinion.

He was an early and vocal Trump critic throughout the primaries. Now that some in the media are being more critical of Trump, Matthews is going the other way.

It comes with the beltway pundit need to act like the insider who knows better than everyone else.

4. Dunno.. but, it's being noticed, Blue Idaho..

5. The guy really loses all sense of proportion.

Talk about looking like a real fool...

6. It's just hard for me to figure out why any progressive still watches Chris Matthews?

[Jamaal510]

10. I watch

occasionally when nothing else is on and I'm desperate for something on TV, but I find myself watching his show and others on MSNBC less often these days as they try to push the "dead heat" narrative with the polling and after the major lineup changes from last year.

11. I'm right there with you. I love Joy Reid on the weekend, but that's about it for me. n/t

7. Matthews is angling for another Trump interview. nt

9. Matthews follows the herd

The media in general is lowering the bar for The Donald so that the 'horserace' can commence, a race in which Trump and Hillary Clinton are . . . equals. We (the viewing as opposed to thinking public) need to swallow the meme that both candidates are equally disliked, corrupt and congenital truth-killers. Because Matthews and his kin are 'objective, serious journalists" all things must be equal to cover the national campaign. Even though Trump is an unqualified, know-nothing narcissist, at least he's a man willing to do battle with the unscrupulous Hillary Clinton, a woman who has been under a journalistic and political microscope for 25 years, yet has the audacity to survive, thrive and make the Donald Trumps of the world look like the small, petty men they truly are.

As I recall, Chris Matthews swooned over GW's performance art on the aircraft carrier, the one displaying the Mission Accomplished banner.

Several months ago, Matthews lashed out at Katy Tur for not doing her job properly (she didn't have the answer to one of the man's questions). Ten days ago Matthews was gushing over Tur's remarkable luck of being able to cover The Donald 24/7, said she was doing a fine, fine job reporting Trumpster News.

Man-crush much?? Yeah, just a tad obvious.

[Politicub]

12. Because Chris Matthews.

He's in it for the ratings.

[Blue Idaho]

13. The man is a human weathervane.

He is so intellectually dishonest it's astounding.
