MSNBC’s Hardball host Chris Matthews almost never passes up the chance to bash Ted Cruz as a modern day Joe McCarthy and Wednesday night was no different as he flaunted the comparison while New York Daily News columnist Linda Stasi complained that Cruz’s allegations about mob ties to Donald Trump were “racist and disgusting.”

The Cruz bashing kicked into high gear when Matthews turned to Stasi to ask what she made of “Cruz's comment about — about, well he said yesterday on the Glenn Beck Show, taking Trump over the reported business — business — he talked about dealing with mobsters” that Matthews felt was “a typical, typical Ted Cruz, McCarthyite comment.”
