MSNBC host Chris Matthews is sounding the alarm suggesting that if the Democrat party goes all-in on radical socialist, Bernie Sanders, President Trump will wipe the floor with them on Election Day.
In discussing how the other candidates have withheld their fire against Sanders and his radical policies, Matthews predicted the ultimate outcome would be Trump winning 49 of 50 states. Or is it 57, Barack?
“They're [other candidates] just pandering to the Bernie people and you know what pandering gets you? Nothing,” the MSNBC host complained. “It certainly doesn't get you respect.”
“They've got to get out there and say I disagree with socialism; I believe in the markets; I think he's wrong,” Matthews continued. “I think you'll never get it done and this country will never go that direction, by the way we'll lose forty-nine states.”
Safe to say, Chris has no thrill going up his leg for Bernie's socialist candidacy.

Let's Analyze Those Comments
There is a lot to unpack in Matthews' comments, not the least of which is how his prediction will probably come true. We'll get to that in a minute, however.
Let's begin with how the MSNBC host, who wants to convince viewers that he and his network are not an arm of the Democrat party, framed the comment.
“We'll lose forty-nine states.”
Why would he consider that a personal loss? A rhetorical question, of course.
Also worth considering, Mr. Matthews, is the possibility that Democrats aren't exclusively pandering to Bernie's people. Perhaps they have conformed to the extreme elements of the fringe left and are supportive of his socialist policies and platforms.
It's not exactly a far-fetched notion for a party that has conformed to Bernie's acolytes on impeachment hoaxes and theatrics from top to bottom.

He's Right
Now back to our initial analysis – that Matthews may very well be right when he says the Democrats will suffer incalculable electoral losses on Election Day.
A new ABC/Washington Post poll shows the socialist curmudgeon dominating the field while more palatable choices amongst party moderates are plummeting.
And while Bernie-mania and his dreams of American socialism are popular amongst the extreme left, it remains extremely unpopular to the rest of America.
A new poll found only 28% of Americans have a favorable view of socialism, while 58% have an unfavorable impression.
The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) believes Sanders' name on the Democrat ticket will result in overwhelming losses for the party in November. Perhaps enough that the House could be flipped.
“Bernie Sanders and House Democrats' socialist agenda will put an end to Nancy Pelosi's unsuccessful second stint as Speaker,” NRCC Spokesman Michael McAdams said in a statement.
