A frequent whiner when it comes to Republicans and voter ID laws, MSNBC’s Hardball host Chris Matthews couldn’t help but briefly commiserate with his guests following the first 2016 GOP presidential debate that the “denial of voting rights” and other issues like “childhood development” that “parents, especially mothers care about” were not discussed in the debate.

With former Ohio Democratic State Senator Nina Turner on the set, Matthews turned to her and gushed that he was “proud of the fact on this show Hardball and other shows on MSNBC, we talk about denial of voting rights” and complained that it was something that “wasn’t talked about tonight.”
