3. Well, Chris...

Why was General Flynn fired and why did Jeff Sessions recuse himself? And why did Jared meet with that Russian banker?

A little premature to say there was no collusion, in my opinion.

Chris Matthews: collusion "fell apart" [View all] Joe941 Jun 2017 OP

He was the only person that kept repeating that. helpisontheway Jun 2017 #1

Stop watching/listening to Tweety theaocp Jun 2017 #2

I gave up tweety years ago he is republican light kimbutgar Jun 2017 #28

If it wasn't for Chris Matthews we could be calling Trump "Tweety." It sure fits him better. Towlie Jun 2017 #63

Well, Chris... kentuck Jun 2017 #3

Matthews' mind has fallen apart. The other night it took him a dozen tries to think of WinkyDink Jun 2017 #6

I so glad that dribble no longer comes in my house. Nothing fell apart today, and in fact some still_one Jun 2017 #7

You're exactly right! Chris Matthews has lost his faculties IndianaDave Jun 2017 #59

He's a blubbering blowhard who blows in the wind-a total waste of time wishstar Jun 2017 #9

Well, that's it then. GallopingGhost Jun 2017 #10

If you only listen to news that pleases you... GaYellowDawg Jun 2017 #13

That is a great point. I would avoid Matthews not because I dsagree with him, but JCanete Jun 2017 #65

Trump is in a mess, but Matthews is correct that there was no evidence Trump colluded with Hoyt Jun 2017 #14

WTF? How can YOU possibly claim to know that?? ElementaryPenguin Jun 2017 #15

Do you have some dates and names of contacts between Trump aides and Ruskies Hoyt Jun 2017 #21

In fact, the big NYT story saying campaign associates had contacts with RUssians? - not true. jmg257 Jun 2017 #24

Good information. Hoyt Jun 2017 #25

And Rachel just pointed out how many other reports there were at the same time. jmg257 Jun 2017 #26

Except for Manafort (actual agent), Sessions, Kushner, Page, and Bannon? All WinkyDink Jun 2017 #30

So was that picture of Flynn sitting next to Putin at that circular table in Russia Samantha Jun 2017 #35

Nope. But the article describing all the "repeated contacts by campaign associates" jmg257 Jun 2017 #37

Saw the NYT author last night on TV - he was shocked and NYT has made repeated Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2017 #46

Yep - Rachel was getting into it. Interesting to know for sure! jmg257 Jun 2017 #48

Wow - Rude to Hoyt - can't believe he was so calm in return responses !! Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2017 #44

I think you have to wait on Mueller DefenseLawyer Jun 2017 #16

I pray they find something that convinced GOPers they have to take action to remove Trump. Hoyt Jun 2017 #23

He was obstructing an FBI investigation into why his major campaign surrogate spoke secretly alcibiades_mystery Jun 2017 #18

The contacts that might have involved sanctions were made in December, AFTER the election. Hoyt Jun 2017 #22

Hoyt, that has yet to be determined. You are qualifying it with "at this point". still_one Jun 2017 #27

Because the evidence is in the hands of Mueller, not in the public discourse. PubliusEnigma Jun 2017 #32

And neither do you. I do know I have been through one Fitzmas in my life, and that's enough Hoyt Jun 2017 #36

Have no fear. This is much more similar to Watergate than Fitzmas. PubliusEnigma Jun 2017 #56

I don't know, outing a CIA agent and lying us into war were quite serious. Hoyt Jun 2017 #58

That's not true at all Bradical79 Jun 2017 #61

Collusion? That wasn't what today was about. The FBI is looking into that now. nt Quixote1818 Jun 2017 #17

Weird - it was supposed to be - at least a bit... jmg257 Jun 2017 #40

Awwww, didums leg not get tingly, Chris? JHB Jun 2017 #19

I'm sure Mueller would beg to differ Mr. Ected Jun 2017 #20

Matthews is terrible at immediate interpretation Awsi Dooger Jun 2017 #31

Often when I hear long testimony like was heard today... Grammy23 Jun 2017 #34

I never heard Comey say that (Trump is part of his campaign) and I wish he had. "No, you are not Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2017 #42

Comey specifically said trump was not under ANY investigation as of the time of his firing. jmg257 Jun 2017 #47

I guess the crux of the matter is that they Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2017 #55

Yep - good stuff. jmg257 Jun 2017 #57

that's probably true - but it may be just that he is impulsive - and calms down - and thinks it Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2017 #43

Yes, ... his immediate perspective is always jaded until he remembers more facts YCHDT Jun 2017 #54

Didn't he say he couldn't answer that in the public hearing? Didn't they have a doc03 Jun 2017 #33

He said on his show that these guys (Trump surrogates) were not doing this on their Demsrule86 Jun 2017 #39

I watched Hardball and it was a take down of Trump the entire hour. Demsrule86 Jun 2017 #38

+1000. Chris thinks Trump a douche bag. And, I am positive he is very dissappointed Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2017 #41

Notice the low number posters...post this stuff without context often. Demsrule86 Jun 2017 #60

love the euphemism:) Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2017 #62

he made a point that there was no damning evidence revealed Demonaut Jun 2017 #50

uhm... demanding loyalty isn't damning? Joe941 Jun 2017 #64

ambiguous statement easily argued in court Demonaut Jun 2017 #66

since the investigation is still ongoing we have no idea of collusion do we. beachbum bob Jun 2017 #52

You don't get attention if you don't say something different HopeAgain Jun 2017 #53

Let me say up front, I like Chris Matthews, but MiddleClass Jun 2017 #67
