Chuck Todd Goes Off After a 'Head-Spinning' Day: GOP's Conditioning the Base to See Trump's Erratic Behavior as Normal

No Chuck, the media with your help has been pimping this dysfunctional Jerry Springer Freakshow for three years now with no accountability and very little fact checking, all for the sake of ratings, so be proud of this overflow outhouse of a Presidency you helped create.

Not not single network had one of their investigative programs do an exclusive episode on the Mueller Report, but I can't even count how many were done on Hillary's emails and Benghazi.

First words out of chucktodd's mouth when some conservative hack blarts out a totally unsupported lie. No pushback, no response, it's time to go to our all-star panel for an in-depth 75 second look at the state of the economy with three conservative writers and an economist who never quite gets a turn.

To anyone. Even his most ardent supporters know that there is something seriously wrong with him.

Just as Walter Cronkite reported that we were not winning the war in Vietnam, some mainstream TV news figure is going to have to come right out and say it. He is auite obviously mentally ill, dangerous, and does not belong in office.

"Insiders were confounded today when Trump stated he was the messiah. But is Elizabeth Warren's student loan foregiveness plan just as crazy? Coming up, we'll be speaking to Senator Chuck Grassley and RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel about why this is a problem for Democrats going into 2020..."

his crazy dumbass brainfarts are coming faster and faster, each one more ridiculous and vomit inducing than the last. Distractions to steer everyone away from what matters.

Tim Russert would have called these clowns out.

Chuck Todd is a low-octane hack and an embarrassment. Perfect example of being in the right place at the right time. No real talent. Every time I see him start a story, I'm hopeful that he'll actually hit a base run. Instead, he misses the pitch and then throws the bat at the Democratic bench.

I'm amazed that Todd is still employed at NBC. I wonder if Fox is paying his salary?
