BREAKING NEWS!!!!! MSNBC 7:00 PM EST USA - Watching Hardball I watched Chris Mathews retire from MSNBC at 73 after 20 years of Hardball. Everyone on show was shocked. It was not scripted. Apparently he made a huge mistake Friday night that rattled him -misidentifying Jamie Harrison for Senator Scott -they are both black. Also some controversies over the last 2 weeks over Bernie Sanders. I guess it was time to say goodbye. Agree/Disagree?
Not surprised, he was not sharp and was frankly to annoy to watch so I have not watched him for the past several weeks.
I wonder with the rare mistakes he's been making if he is worried about dementia or Alzheimers taking over.
@sassygirl3869 Maybe.
He was turning increasingly Old Nasty White Man, just yuck!
I wish the rest of them would follow. MSNBC is nothing more than the propaganda HQ of the Democratic party. I used to like Rachel M and Lawrence W, but their constant undermining of Bernie S has become intolerable. And as for Morning Joe and his wife Fritsi, or whatever her name is, they have become a Biden cheer group squad. I didn't even watch Chris Mathews, as he is so shrill, and yes goodbye and pick up your cheque from HQ.
Speaking of "Old Nasty White Man, just yuck!" . . . .
I would rather see Chuck Todd leave. Wonder who they'll put in Matthews' spot.
Steve Kornacki is my guess.
