MSNBC’s Hardball host Christ Matthews was joined on Thursday night by Democratic Connecticut Governor Dan Malloy to discuss the 2016 election, but quickly devolved into the pair lamenting the lack of nationwide gun control with Malloy suggesting that Second Amendment advocates want those with suicidal thoughts to be taken to gun ranges.

With little pushback in the roughly five-minute interview, Matthews started by lobbing this softball at Malloy (who enthusiastically backs Hillary Clinton): “What do you make of that comeback by Sanders that Hillary Clinton has not been active on the gun state of the issue as a legislator?”
