Chuck Todd = asshat.

This bs of creating the false equalivancy between the two candidates. This "it's bigger than just HRC and DJT" is trying to say they're both the same.

We are in a post truth world but only on one side of the aisle, in spite of his closing comment intended to imply it's everyone.

see what twist they were putting on things, but passed when I remembered his infamous (literally, got lots of attention) "concern" spiel about how awful both Trump and Hillary were in their race for the bottom and how they were dragging the nation down with them. Life's too short to wallow in that.

I don't understand why people watch deceptive propaganda on the plutocrat networks and then complain about it being propaganda.

I can only stand about 12 seconds of Priebus, and that Howdy Doody guy is always annoying. Spin, spin, spin...

Todd isn't that great of a host either. He's just clunky (not like Tweety but still).
