And he began by explaining the issues being discussed so clearly and persuasively that I've always tried to catch his extremely informative show ever since. Rachel and Lawrence are great, but Chris Hayes is in the same league. He does "get it!"

They aren’t interested in governing, or policy. They are interested in proving their long-standing mission statement that government is evil and broken and corrupt and can’t help people. Why so many Americans keep electing politicians who fundamentally do not believe in the concept of government and governing I genuinely don’t get.
