In an August 29 Hardball segment tied to critical comments about President Trump by former Secretary of Defense James Mattis, Chris Matthews insisted “I’m not a Trump hater,” then said that “I see a president running the country...with crayons” and charged: “This is an eight-year-old. If Mussolini was around today, he would say, I love that guy’s chin, the way it sticks out.”

A minute later, he asserted: “This guy is Idi Amin. You know, when they found Idi Amin, the guy running Uganda, finally, they found he had toys in his room. He was actually spending his time playing with toys.”
