MSNBC's Chris Matthews confuses South Carolina Democratic Senate candidate with GOP's Tim Scott
The Hill ^ | 02 28 2020 | J. Edward Moreno

While on air during a Trump rally in South Carolina, MSNBC’s Chris Matthews confused S.C. Democratic senate candidate Jamie Harrison with Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.), both of whom are black.

“I see you standing there next the guy you’re going to beat maybe,” Matthews said to Harrison, while the camera was on a frame of Scott and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.).

Matthews, the host of “Hardball,” was immediately corrected by other anchors before realizing he had mixed up the two S.C. politicians.

“Big mistake, mistaken identity, sorry,” Matthews said.

Matthews has stirred controversy in recent weeks leading to several calls for his resignation or firing from the network.

Remember Hillary said something about how all blacks look alike? I think in reference to Eric Holder and some other black.man? But that was ok because liberals are allowed to say and do whatever they want no matter if they make mistakes, or in this case, make a brazenly racist statement.

Same thing happened to Samuel L. Jackson. Funny as hell, he wouldn’t let the interviewer out of the trap.

He got too close to Joe Biden.

Whatever impairment SloJoe has, he gave it to Chris, the Leg-Tingler.

Whoops! Embarrassing.

Actually, if I was drawing a sketch,
both men do look similar from a distance, or if you’re not really paying attention. Both have a dark brown complexion, both have virtually shaved, rounded heads, both have blunt, rounded facial features; snub noses. No linear features. The main difference is that one (Scott) is slimmer than the other, and his neck is more visible. Tim also wears dark suit jackets most the time.

All that being said, Chris looked pretty foolish (again).

So Matthews thought Harrison was at a Trump rally? And Trump called him up on stage to lead the crowd in cheers for Trump???

I think Senile Joe found his perfect running mate. Only Matthews can make Biden look intelligent by comparison.

Chris Matthews pulled a “Biden” error. Dementia is a good thing for Democrats. Can limit their ability to destroy America.
