Maddow Lets Senator Argue Sessions Doesn't Care if Women Get Beaten Up
Jon Tester is not a well-known politician who makes frequent appearances on cable news. But what the Montana Democrat lacks in familiarity he compensates by pulling off the most important liberal duty of all -- he shows that he cares. Really, really cares.
