Hampshire which will be a town hall, same format as sundays debate here on cnn. Dana bash joins us with the details and political strategy behind this. This basically seems like an obvious dry run for sunday night. One source told me it was a scrimmage. They really want donald trump to kind of retain his Muscle Memory from town halls. He hasnt done as many town halls as Chris Christie or john mccain who basically lived in New Hampshire where a town hall is part of the political tdna there. But the fact is they want him to be in an intimate settic just like on sunday night. They have chosen the place where Chris Christie had his first down hall when he announced for president in 2016. And Chris Christie is involved in trying to get donald trump ready stylistically for the idea

In wisconsin, 22vote margin, and she got 31,000 votes. Those are states that decided the election. Thats why investigators are looking at jill stein. Its no surprise the reaction to the russian meddling is polarizing but it Doesnt Matter whether the investigation goes right or left. These leads need to be run down. So if the committees doing it, maybe thats a good thing. Thats our show. Hardball starts now. Bad santa. Lets play hardball. Good evening. Im Chris Matthews in washington where it was a day of high drama at the capitol. At this hour, were awaiting a senate vote on the republican tax bill that could come at any time.
