Cue the sad trombone.
MSNBC host, Chris Matthews, admitted the media and the Democrats attempts to portray President Trump’s campaign as colluding with Russia, fell apart.
“The assumption of the critics of the president, of his pursuers, you might say, is that somewhere along the line in the last year is the president had something to do with colluding with the Russians … to affect the election in some way,” Matthews opined after former FBI Driector James Comey’s testimony.
“And yet what came apart this morning was that theory.”
You know it’s bad when you lose the one guy who constantly gets a thrill up his leg over Trump’s predecessor.

Morning Joe should listen to Chris Matthews instead of the same old faces that attack Trump daily.

Via the Washington Examiner:
Liberal MSNBC host Chris Matthews said Thursday the accusation that President Trump directly colluded with Russia to interfere in the U.S. election “came apart” following former FBI Director James Comey’s testimony in front of Congress.
…
“And yet what came apart this morning was that theory,” Matthews said, listing two reasons why. First, he said Comey revealed that “Flynn wasn’t central to the Russian investigation,” and secondly, he said that kills the idea that Flynn might have been in a position to testify against Trump.
“And if that’s not the case, where’s the there-there?” Matthews said.

Fox News host, Sean Hannity, took a moment to acknowledge Matthews’ rare moment of candor.
“Ah, a moment of enlightenment, even for Chris Matthews,” he said.
It’s actually a moment that should have come long, long ago. Multiple individuals have said all along there is no evidence of a Russia/Trump collusion story.
Maybe Matthews is enlightened, but it seems more likely that we’re looking at evidence of the broken watch theory.
Is this the last we’ll hear of the Russia collusion story? Share your thoughts below.

Hillary and Bill Clinton are two of the most well known politicians of our time. They met as students at Yale Law and married over forty years ago. Over those years, they have perfected their ability to dodge the bullet, perpetrating a number of devious schemes while their partners in crime went to jail. It is well documented that Hillary Clinton used her position as the Secretary of State to put together deals with individuals and foreign countries, especially Russia, to garner donations of millions of dollars for the Clinton Foundation. All the while, Bill Clinton was collecting huge fees making speeches before and during Hillary’s stint at the State Department. And the DEMS and their media can’t let go of ‘The dead Russian /Trump bologna”.
What Hillary deleted from her private email server most likely had references to the Clinton Foundation its deals she made with the Russians that could expose her using the State Department as a piggy bank. We have had eight years of Obama attempting to drag our country down to a third-world nation. If Hillary Clinton had becomes president of the United States, she would have sold off what is left. I highly recommend Jerome R. Corsi’s book, “Partners In Crime” if you are interested in the huge number of connections the Clinton Foundation cultivated over the years. It began back in 1997 as a means to receive tax free donations to build the William Jefferson Clinton Library. The IRS never gave the foundation authorization to become a charitable organization, yet it has collected billions of dollars and in many cases, to give favors to their wealthy friends and associates. I find it hard to understand why they haven’t been indicted for racketeering. The money laundering that goes between the different foundations and partnerships has all the earmarks of violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, or the (RICO Act). Bill and Hillary Clinton have been given a pass at every turn over the years by the media, special interest groups and those who want to feather their bed or keep their careers alive.
I am sure there are others that think the same after all the time and money have been spent on this fairy tale. Trump had nothing to do with anyone on the election. Every thing he has said so far has been on the money. Its just the goons that are sorry losers trying to stir up fake charges.
It’s nice to hear that at least one liberal is admitting that Trump had no contact with Russia. Now maybe some of the others will come back to reality and admit it. There are some (pelosi, schumer, etc) who will NEVER admit they were wrong. After all, they are too smart and they know what is best for us lowly citizens better than we do because they have been corrupt for so long they don’t know what it is to be honest with the people and themselves.
Your right, Sharon! we all knew that the Clinton’s had been involved with the Russians. I am so sick of the liberal media and their lies, just like the rest of the Democrats.
Not as stupid as liberals are. They’ll keep trying to nail Trump with it. BUT we voters know better, so are ignoring them.
I really doubt that it will be the last? If you were a enlightened person it would seem so, but you just can’t count on demo’s doing the right thing if they are diehard liberals. They want to be rid of Trump in the worst way so as I see it they will continue on their merry way expulsion the same old narrative. But I hope there are enough demo’s that have common sense to convince those that don’t have any to get there head out of their Butt.
Duh, ya think?? The only reason all these liberals continue this Russian bs is so it takes away from anyone paying attention to the pedophilia going on in DC. This was said by an FBI anonymous insider. Since at least 30% of our politicians are involved in pedophilia including Killary & Billy Boy, they will “create” any distraction they can so hopefully people will drop the pizza & pedogate topic. It will eventually all come out & most people will be shocked at who is involved. This are the “deplorables”.
The extremist anti-Trump media was actually inadvertently complicit in the demise of the asinine notion of Russian collusion. They went way to far.
Is Matthews not the same guy who said in a conversation with Rachel madox, Wouldn’t it be nice if we didn’t have to worry about the possibility that Putin set up the circumstances for the American strike on Syria just to give his buddy Trump an opportunity to shine for the the American public, and thus aid his opinion polls” (A little paraphrasing – but accurate in thought, meaning, implication, and underhanded call for violence against Trump?
He is MSNBC’s prize fighter. A few still say he is a journalist. What the hell is wrong with us?
Well…….you other far left MSM loons need to listen to the head potentate, Chris Matthews, and put your crazy Russia collusion story to bed. You far left MSM loons look so stupid and what you really are, mean, evil spirited socialists who are hell bent to destroy this country.
Let them beat their dead horses; the living ones benefit from the change of attention.
I’m having the time of my life watching the imbeciles burn their own party to the ground. Why would I want to stop this? Need a match?
We will probably hear this (and other false statements) for ever. The Democrats are well known for beating a “dead horse”.They should just accept the situation and come up with a better candidate and platform than they have had in the past 24 years. Obama was a poor choice, because he obviously did not love this country and what it stood for.( which made me seriously doubt his being an American) Hillary only cared about power. So if you can find a candidate worthy of the trust of the American people, you might have a shot at it again.
The damage is already done. The fake news media has millions of liberals convinced that Trump is working for Putin and nothing can said that will change their mind. That is why every religion known to mankind makes it a sin to bear false testimony. The liberal propaganda machine knows that.
No! The dam* Dumb-O-Craps, keeps “kicking a dead horse, for a different result”! That is the definition of “Insanity”… *(shaking head in disbelief)* . Why do we waste our tax money on payrolls of the Dem-Wits (aka democraps)? ~JOHN~ said dat
When will he and the rest of the ash wholes just admit they have been attacking Trump because they were all losers. Melanie already won millions of dollars against a rag that defamed her. I want to see all of these news bastards sued to the point where they can’t afford airtime or ink to print papers.
From what I saw all Comey did was perjure his under oath testimony at the May senate hearing. Implicate himself in a felony – by illegally leaking government materials – and – Implicating Loretta Lynch as interfering with the FBI investigation into Hillary Clintons use of a private server and mishandling classified materials.
What a great example Paul and dead on! Wonder what the liberal losers next false narrative will be? The Democratic party is it’s own worst enemy and their continued outright lies about the President from day one of his tenure in office has been one lie after another by the Democrats and Americans aren’t stupid, well, at least not the ones who haven’t been brainwashed in liberal colleges by liberal professors who program them to believe the false rhetoric they spread. The reason I say they’re their own worst enemies is the American people who don’t buy into the BS they preach will be even more apt not to vote for them just because of the lies they’ve told that have been exposed. Barack Obama almost completely destroyed the party and these continued false narratives are the final nails in the coffin of the Democratic party, but what’s really sad is they’re to stupid to even see it! They’ll see it at the polls! I was a registered Democrat for 30 years, but changed my affiliation to Republican in 2008 after I saw the path Barack Obama and the modern regressive liberal Democratic party were leading their constituents down! I honestly believe if Hillary Clinton had won the presidency she would have finished the job of destroying the United States of America that Barack Obama started in 2008. Thank God He didn’t let that happen! Most Americans may have deserted God, but praise the Lord he hasn’t forsaken us yet!
you know the old white dog crap that you find in your yard from time to time? That will always be defined as finding the “Matthews”, no smell all white and has lived beyond its usefulness.
Yet he stopped short of admitting that this was ALL entirely a HOAX, lies created and repeated by the LibTurd MSM!!!
