During Monday’s “Hardball” on MSNBC, host Chris Matthews compared Donald Trump to “Baghdad Bob” because the Republican presidential nominee still claims he will win the election, despite the polls showing differently.

Then there’s ‘Baghdad Bob’ saying … that the Republican candidate for president is well in the fight! Remember Baghdad Bob? He was the guy broadcasting from the Iraqi capital as the U.S. troops arrived to take over the city. Well today, the die hard voice coming from the Republican presidential campaign is that of the candidate himself. Baghdad Bob, meet Donald Trump,” Matthews said.
