Chris Matthews joked about putting a "Bill Cosby pill" into Hillary's drink before their interview....

https://www.thecut.com/2018/01/chris-matthews-bill-cosby-pill-hillary-clinton-interview.html

Three things that come to my mind -

1. This is how women are treated in politics.

2. How are the Deplorables going to deal with this? Will they let this one slide because it was a joke about harming Hillary?

3. MSNBC should fire Matthews and replace him with Joy Reid.

My first thought when I read the thread title was that he was talking about giving her some sort of drug to improve her interview performance... remember all the Trump cocaine talk from the debates?

Yeah, that's not a good thing to joke about, no matter who it's directed at.

Can we please refrain from using "libtard"?

Chris Matthew's joke was obviously in bad taste but he shouldn't be fired.

There's a little bit of merit to claims of media bias against Clinton because individual media figures disliked her. But if you think Matthews disliking Clinton affected coverage and her chances negatively, then you have to admit that Trump is partially right when he decries how so many in the media dislike him.

With you, Greedo, one can’t tell if you’re trying to land Trumpian nicknames for public figures or simply misspelling their names.

There is no sexism in American politics.
Maggie Haberman and Ken Vogel said so.

I don't say this very often because it's very rude, but: F**k you.

Wulfric practically made a death threat against the Clintons in one thread, so this should surprise no one. He has really hate issues.

Well he did say he got a "thrill up his leg" for Hillary's opponent in '08.

Tweety saying something bad about Hillary? Color me surprised! Those of us from 2008 remember how blatantly nasty he was towards her:

"More than six years ago, long before Hillary Clinton began running for president, the Philadelphia Inquirer magazine reported that, according to an MSNBC colleague, Matthews had said of Clinton: "I hate her. I hate her. All that she stands for."

Even before that, Matthews told the January 20, 2000, Hardball audience, "Hillary Clinton bugs a lot of guys, I mean, really bugs people like maybe me on occasion. I'm not going to take a firm position here, because the election is not coming up yet. But let me just say this, she drives some of us absolutely nuts."

Matthews has referred to Clinton as "She devil." He has repeatedly likened Clinton to "Nurse Ratched," referring to the "scheming, manipulative" character in One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest who "asserts arbitrary control simply because she can." He has called her "Madame Defarge." And he has described male politicians who have endorsed Clinton as "castratos in the eunuch chorus."

Tweety is the jfern of MSNBC and just another deplorable in the basket who should have been fired a long time ago.

The list of all the men that interviewed Hillary during the campaign that have been fired for sexual assault, accused, or made sexist remarks just keeps adding up.

If Chris Matthews isn't fired...that will be proof positive that MSNBC is a Democratic propaganda organization.

But think about this. If say... Chris Wallace, said something like this about Mitt Romney, would he be fired?

You guys this is just a petty joke Jesus chill out.

We're going to far with this whole "do anything wrong whatsoever even if it's just a minor comment or gag and your fired and your life is over" thing.

Cut it out. People make jokes. Sometimes in poor taste. It happens. I can't believe I'm literally having to defend someone for an off the cuff joke.

Christ.

Do you also defend President Trump when he jokes?
