Trying to figure out chucktodd's "logic" is a fool's errand.

Nailed it.

They need two horses in the race.

Then he now belongs solidly in the "Too stupid to live" camp and needs to be taken out of the gene pool immediately.

There's a major distinction between colluding with the Russians and working for them. And this investigation was back in 2016; if there had been heard evidence, wouldn't they have brought it forward?

We have no idea what happened to the investigation. It may have gone to Mueller. Since there is no report, then the claim can't be true. What a ridiculous thing to say.

What was the actual quote?

Because it is a safe bet the only people who know what the SC staff are the SC staff, and they aren't going to let something slip to Chuck Todd...

IOW, Chuck Toadie is full of shit

Chuck Todd has to book people on Meet the Press - that's his main gig on NBC. The rightwingers won't come on his show if they believe he's going to sandbag them or start ragging on Trump, McConnell and the rest of the GOP. I believe he has to walk a fine line to keep those rightwingers coming on his show.

Also, his boss Andrew Lack probably made him say that. I'm not kidding. They can't make Rachel or Lawrence say crap like that, but Todd gets jerked around a lot.

Cable News is owned and managed by Republicans. Even MSNBC.

owner of Affiliated Stations. And you are not going to get much more Right wing.

not complicated at all to understand why TV talking heads say illogical things.

Nuf said.

Hopefully he mis-spoke. He will be on the wrong side of history on this. However, it does shed light on the few media news shows that start, and give wayyy too much time to 'what about ism', 'both sides do it', and smugly conjecturizing defenses for the gop everyday on their shows. CT has been particularly aggregious of never failing to suggest, a possible innocent answer for some bad gop behavior. All in the name of "fairness and debate". in my humble estimation. Just speaking generally on a routine week for him. Not today.
Hopefully he's tired. I miss Tim Russert.

and that is not my take on what he meant.

It was not lopsided pro republican. It was weird.

but haven't watched it yet. I'll see if I can put it in context when I watch it later.

Can you give me a time stamp from the video? I can't find where he said that at all:

… he was still being investigated? I'm not sure it'll even be done by February, as has been stated.

Google about Todd saying that or anything similar, and so far nothing has turned up.

Let met tell you I'm still a virgin.....

meaning.

yes, it’s a hell of a different meaning!

and posting this.

A Republican strategist throws it out there as possible and Chuck Todd just says "Fair Point".

frantically trying to figure out what was said for no reason.

Looks like you too.

and a video on this thread that show Todd just responded, "Fair point", to another panelist who wonder what would result if the FBI cleared trump.

Delete this, please.

...we should be prepared there may not be enough on Trump directly.

Mueller appears to be a careful, fastidious, and conservative investigator. He won't hype anything.

If its there, its there, but if Mueller says it is not, then I'll believe him.

This is why I support Pelosi's strategy of waiting for the Mueller investigation to conclude before pulling the impeachment trigger.

You should update and correct your post.

pay it no mind

and then never reply to anything on the post again.

Posting something untrue.

Hmmm......

I watched last night. Had no transcript in front of me or no recording of the show to check out. I heard those words on the fly and they triggered me-- as the transcript shows someone, Cardenas actually said it. It came and went fast. And I didn't remember who exactly said it. So sue me.

I hold CT responsible for his guests, to some degree. And there are lots of people out there who believe what was said.

but you didn't and decided to leave up a post you knew was in error anyway even if it harmed people by misleading them.

it takes courage to correct a mistake.

it doesn't take courage to not correct one.

we all make our choices.
