Chris Matthews tried to get Ted Cruz off message today several times, but that apparently is like trying to push Mt Everest into the sea because it didn’t happen. Cruz is way too sharp for Matthews and avoids some of the illegal immigration snares Matthews sets for him.







Matthews also tried to get him to define his fellow Republican opponents, but again, Cruz stayed on message pointing out that we need bold colors in this election against Hillary and refused to personally attack any of them.

Cruz got in a few jabs at Matthews, referring to the Democrat Party as his party several times throughout the interview. Matthews took note of it but didn’t disagree.
