Chris Matthews Makes His Midterm Predictions | Morning Joe | MSNBC

Assume *nothing.*

*VOTE*

But do more. Volunteer at your local polling station. Bus people to the polling booths. Campaign for you representative. Don't just Tweet a comment, Tweet a *campaign.*

Use your Democracy. More than anything, it is your greatest power.

[johnedwardjones]

Cruz clearly needs to go..Vote BETO and help clean the swamp.

I'm 75 years old and have never missed any election Since I became old enough to vote, starting with John F. Kennedy. The right to vote was paid for with American soldier's lives for you. Have the common decency to honor that sacrifice by voting the party or candidate of your choice.

[nanpeaslee]

I was already looking forward to the midterms, but now that I'm hearing we may have a chance with the Senate too...well....I'm over the crossed!!!

Texas is going for Beto!!! Get out and 🗳 vote

[wisconsinfarmer]

He has lost the independents. His base is exhausted. And he is unable to temper the behavior that has caused this.

You forgot the Italians who traditionally also are firefighters in New York City

[aarriaga]

Joe when Chris said Beto could win and be a National star. Joe said “Oh God” yeah Joe it’s coming!

[LIlbulldog]

Surf the Blue Wave
Clean up the Red Tide

[stndsure]

I am holding my breath that this is true - and the new people have some balls - or courage as the case may be.

[annamarker]

Don’t tell Trump how to improve!!!! We want him out.

[michaelbelt]

The circus analogy seems like an accurate metaphor.

[michaelmorris]

Vote DEMOCRAT ! BUT GET OUT AND VOTE ! It is not only your right it is your responsibility for our country. VOTE DEMOCRAT. 🙂😺🙋‍♂️🖖✌

[thx]

Low unemployment and stagnant wages for years. Not a bragging point. Stock market numbers affect your circle not most citizens.

[Godstrumpet]

Matthews made a great point about the working class being the people "who come to save you when you are scared to death you're going to die".
America once had respect for the working class, who do many of the most important jobs that keep local businesses and public services running. They show up when power goes out, when you have a fire or need police, they serve you coffee at Starbucks. Everyone wants to be rich, but we have to remember our working and middle class American values. If we lose those values, our society is on shaky ground.

Department of Defense elementary and secondary teachers had their much deserved raise terminated by Trump.

[mikekennedy]

Looks like 35% approval today & falling the jig is up....mr, spanky

[markcary]

Please my fellow American PLEASE VOTE ITS YOUR RIGHT.

[rudyvanburen]

the senate seat in texas going to the democrats is a piece of cake! Just show, on local TV, what Cruz said about trump, and what trump said about Cruz . Nothing more !!

[anthonymomanyi]

Lewisville, Denton area will knock 600 doors for Beto by myself
