Ex-MSNBC host Chris Matthews laid down the gauntlet for Democrats and ran through names of ranking lawmakers in demands the party abandon “losing” etiquette and “take on” President Donald Trump’s “firing squad.”
The firebrand network veteran appeared on Morning Joe on Tuesday to challenge Democrats and the media to step up amid Trump’s extensive actions and “shoot back in all directions at the same time.”
Matthews’ take came after host Joe Scarborough reflected on Democratic strategist James Carville’s call for the party to “sit back” and past instances when Democrats collected “receipts” on opposition administrations.
The former host unleashed on the idea, noting the terms of the game had changed after Trump pardoned January 6 rioters, bowled over GOP senators in confirmation battles, and Vice President JD Vance championing Germany’s far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party last week.

Chrissy the game changed with Biden never being competent for office from the start of the 2020 election up to Biden’s pardons, but as usual you lie and try to hide those facts.
A guy nobody remembers went on a show nobody watches to whine about something nobody cares about.
He’s still alive???
Another oxygen thief with a worthless opinion.
“shoot back in all directions at the same time.”
Is a circular firing squad. Or maybe Chris thinks he’s at the Alamo.
BTTT
Chris Matthews? Who?!
Is not this incitement to to lunatic fringe? How is this different from that person who a few days ago said “... assassination is on the table...”?
I thought it is illegal to threaten POTUS ...
Obvious insurrection.
He got fired.
“demands the party abandon “losing” etiquette”
As if Democrats are good losers. What a joke. Mathew’s key beef is that the Democrats have no leaders anywhere. The bench is empty.
They have lots of leaders, all the Black female mayors around the country, and Hakeeeem jeffries - what a team.
Isn’t he dead?
What? Democrats are already “standing up”:
Standing up for illegal alien murderers.
Standing up for illegal alien child rapists.
Standing up for China controlling the Panama Canal.
Standing up for bad trade deals with Mexico.
Standing up for bad trade deals with Canada.
Standing up for caving into Columbia not taking back its citizens.
Standing up against peace in Ukraine.
Standing up against peace and prosperity in Gaza.
Standing up against Israel.
Standing up for waste, fraud, and abuse.
Standing up for dangerous DEI hires.
Standing up for a weak military.
Standing up for keeping excess government employees on the payroll.
What did I miss?
Poor Chrissie Matthews, the tingle is gone.
More Mathews unbiased opinion.
The Democratic bench isn’t empty, it is full of animated geriatric corpses.
One day back in the 1990s, Matthews subbed for Rush Limbaugh. IIRC, he was painfully an awkward fit with Rush’s audience, accidentally used a couple of curse words and was never invited back.
