MSNBC host Chris Matthews claimed Wednesday that Donald Trump and Republicans celebrated recent tax cuts “like a druid celebration of the winter solstice.”

Matthews said, “President Trump and the Republicans are celebrating, what a celebration–like a druid celebrates of the winter solstice. It was really weirdly ritualistic. All the guys showed up by the way with the white shirts on, like they were all told–this is a dress occasion.”
He added, “But what a cost–this tax plan is ugly on the inside. It’s deeply unpopular with the people and they know what they’re talking about. This is going to ship billions to the top. So, will this hurt the Republicans in 2018? It ought to. And also in 2020.”
Matthews was the subject of a Daily Caller report this week indicating that NBC made a payment to a woman who alleged that the MSNBC host harassed her while she worked for him. (RELATED: NBC Made Payment To Staffer After Sexual Harassment Claim Against Chris Matthews)
