During an appearance on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," former NBC host Chris Matthews was pressed by the co-hosts on what Vice President Kamala Harris should do now that it seems assured like she has a clear path to take on Donald Trump in November's election.
Speaking with fill-in hosts Jonathan Lemire and Katty Kay, Matthews urged the vice president and whomever she picks as her running mate to keep on the attack and pointed out Trump is already reeling because he was foolish enough to listen to his sons Don Jr. and Eric when it came to his running mate.
With the Trump campaign having to daily put out fires based of previous statements made by Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) disparaging "childless cat ladies" and calling people without kids "sociopaths," Matthews explained the former president blew it.

Addressing the choice of Vance as GOP vice presidential material, Matthews exclaimed, "He's a joke. He's a joke and now everybody knows it."
"The two Trump kids who picked him, apparently must be embarrassed they told his dad to pick this guy," he claimed. "They should have picked [North Dakota Gov. Doug] Burgum and they would have made Trump the business guy and the energy guy and it would have made sense and you made a mistake by listening to your kids."
