Imagine that in some future presidential election, two Mexican-American candidates are vying for the Dem nomination. The Dem front-runner announces he won't participate in the next debate. And a conservative pundit sneeringly says "who's going to watch a debate between the two Mexican guys?" Now imagine all hell descending on that hapless conservative for his breach of political correctness.
Will anything similar befall Chris Matthews? Of course not. But on Hardball this evening, as news was breaking that Donald Trump won't participate in Thursday's debate in protest over Megyn Kelly's presence on the panel, Matthews said "who's going to watch a debate between the two Cuban guys?"

Actually Chris, it will be REFRESHING, would enjoy the debate more without the spoiled child.
To: governsleastgovernsbest
Nope. No racism there. Did he have spittle in the corner of his mouth as usual?

The mailman's son will get a lot more time, and you know that makes for a compelling debate. It'll be very, uh, energetic

Chrissy doesn’t want to be there either. He’s been between 2 Cuban guys before.

As my eyes scanned down past that image, the only words my brain picked up were “air bag”.
That’s not a joke. True story.
