Awesome.

Frank started it off by pointing out that there has been hot rhetoric on both sides and Sanders letter to the DNC ignored the obviousness of that, and was invalid.

Then he talked about how Sanders back in '91 was equidistant from both the pukes and the Dems and its good he finally came around.

He talked about the campaigning he did for Bernie and that some banks may have contributed to his cause.

At one point Weaver interrupted him and Frank was like "I haven't interrupted you, why the chip?"

Then they discussed what will happening at the convention. Matthews is like "So he wants to make a speech on Monday or Tuesday and he is still campaigning?"


Then Weaver said something about Trumps tax returns, and Matthews went after Bernie. Don't miss it!

1. Weaver has really hurt Bernie

6. Good on Matthews to press weaver but he basically just put off mstthews

Weaver smirk said it all, Bernie will not release taxes and weaver knows it.
I was disappointed when Barney let it slide that Bern would go in to the convention still as a candidate UP until Wednesday night (3rd night) when they take the roll call.
This should be Hillarys convention not a spoiler one .
Frank agreed it's ok if Bernie gave a national prime time tv speech and talk as if he is still a candidate. Which is what sanders campaign plans on doing .
Don't look for any consession from sanders any time soon.

2. Thanks for writing this! Wasn't that Hardball interview GREAT?! I loved it.

Sometimes Matthews annoys me...and then he does something so cool and redeems himself!!! And Barney Frank was great too wasn't he? Weaver (and Bernie) got caught with their pants down!!!

8. Weaver was turning an interesting shade of purplish red that I've never seen before.

4. Barney blabbed about nothing for 20 min. tweety blabbed about nothing for another 20

Jeff got about 12 second. He interrupted because he was getting no time to talk

5. You are in the HCG group.

For Hillary supporters.

[skylucy]

7. To OctOct--This is the Hillary Group. You

are a Sanders supporter.

10. Weaver needs to learn not to come for Barney Frank.

[Rose Siding]

11. Or Matthews either! Chris just would not let him skate on the tax issue

[SaschaHM]

12. Yes... This is about the third time that he has come for Chris...

and he has failed spectacularly all 3 times. Chris can be annoying, but he has been eating Sander's surrogates alive all season.

13. Chris to Weaver: "you just said Trump isn't releasing his tax returns because.....

....he's hiding something. What is your candidate hiding?"!!!!

BEST question of the entire 12 minutes. And Frank did a great job there, too.

I think Chris Matthews had lots of coffee today and he was wired and did a great job, too.
