Chris Matthews: There Is In Fact a Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy to Get Hillary Clinton (The Washington Free Beacon)

Hillary Clinton’s statement when she was First Lady that there was a “vast right-wing conspiracy” out to get her husband Bill Clinton has long drawn ridicule, but MSNBC’s Chris Matthews said Tuesday such a conspiracy “in fact” exists.

Matthews also scolded the questioner at Monday’s CNN town hall who told Clinton to her face that many young people believe her to be dishonest, saying he should have shown more deference to a “major figure in American life.”

Speaking with MSNBC daytime host Frances Rivera, Matthews appeared upset that someone would dare suggest that Clinton is dishonest, despite poll after poll showing the majority of the public doesn’t trust her.
