Seth Meyers praised Chris Matthews for forcing Donald Trump to answer his question on abortion, which ultimately produced the gaffe that's occupied the news for the last few days.
"Matthews asked Trump about his position on abortion and Trump tried a strategy that usually works for him, running out the clock without actually saying anything," Meyers said. But "Matthews would literally sit there in that room all day long before letting Trump not answer that question, Chris Matthews is fine with sitting. That’s why they call him 'hardball.'"
"Trump tried so hard to dodge that question, I thought he was going to throw to commercial," Meyers joked. "'We have great sponsors, Chris, we should hear from them.'"
