MSNBC host Chris Matthews added to Left's limited supply of post-2016 self-reflection last weekend.

The Washington Examiner's Paul Bedard reported on Matthews' comments, which came during a discussion of his new book on Bobby Kennedy. Here's what the anchor said:

Ever since we started this Archie Bunker thing in the early ‘70s, making fun of white working people, we kissed them goodbye. You make fun of people, you look down on them, they get the message. 

You call them 'deplorables,' they hear it. You bet they hear it.

You say they cling to their guns and religion? Oh yeah? I cling to my religion. OK. I’m a little person, and you’re a big person. Thank you, I’ll be voting for the other guy this time.
