Chuck Todd Shirks His Duty Again

Chuck Todd Shirks His Duty Again
The Meet The Press host discussed a possible impeachment of President Biden if Republicans take the House, but didn't ask what he did illegally to warrant such a vote.
By John Amato — September 25, 2022


On Meet the Press, host Chuck Todd asked Rep. Nancy Mace if President Biden would be impeached if Republicans retake the House, but he never asked for an explanation as to what criminal behavior would warrant such a drastic measure.

TODD: Do you expect an impeachment vote against President Biden if Republicans take over the House?

REP. NANCY MACE: I believe there's a lot of pressure on Republicans to have that vote, to put that legislation forward, and to have that vote. I think that is something that some folks are considering.

CHUCK TODD: Wow.


Todd's response of "wow" should have been followed up asking actual substantive questions about impeachment, but it was not.

snip//

There is no credible case to be made against President Biden for impeachment. Disagreeing with one party's legislation or Executive orders is not cause for impeachment, as any competent human being or transhumanoid cyborg would know.

Since Trump was so unethical, immoral, and criminal, he was rightly impeached twice. His recent behavior of hoarding top secret and classified documents at his Florida residence is just reason 6,783.040 of why he's unfit to hold any public office.

MAGA is looking for playback, plain and simple.

Update (Frances Langum): Never forget Nancy Mace is the congresswoman who allegedly vandalized her own house and then fundraised off of the incident.

1. 6 weeks to election day, right on schedule

Democrats are known for squandering leads, but they do get a lot of help from right wing bias in the MSM.

I saw him say, "Trumps rich friends are making out like bandits refinancing their homes at these incredible low rates"

I was like wayment, I ain't his damn friend but I got good credit let me look into a refinancing.

We got a 2.6% interest rate.

20. Hehe, I never watch Chuck

But I did refinance at the bottom, before rates went back up too.

Good on you.

Glad to see someone got something out of that Hannity wannabe.

3. The reason is revenge.

Their golden calf was impeached. It is time to go after Biden.
Nothing more. They have no reason.
Want to show that both sides are bad so they crawl out of the gutter to smear people.
The conservative media lets them do it without comment.
Where is the other side that these creeps supposedly work for?

A professional should have anticipated responses and where it took the conversation even if they don’t have follow ups ready.

10. To play devil's advocate, Todd didn't need to ask the question because R's won't need a reason.

Why bother asking what Biden has done to warrant impeachment when it doesn't matter? They'll make something up.

In many ways, Todd asked the question properly. "Will you impeach him (whether he's done anything to warrant it, and don't bother telling me what you'll impeach him for because I know you don't know and that when the time comes, you're just make up some bullshit something or other anyway)".

Basically the question is, "Will you bring Biden to a kangaroo court?"

21. Yes. Those wondering if the new CNN anchors are honest can

take note of some of Todd's tricks and watch for them on other shows. Leaving out a critical fact because "a half truth can make a great lie." Furthering a strategic deceit narrative by hitting it again and again until the whole nation internalizes the lie and "Biden-impeachment."

In this case we have: Ignoring the fact that they've not identified a crime. Connecting "Biden-impeachment" -- over and over for years leading up to the opportunity.

Political Assassination 101, chapter 1: The allegation IS the crime. Repeat constantly and people will believe.

23. They need to impeach Biden. At least three times.

That's to dilute the two times that Trump was impeached. And in doing so, they will undermine the impeachment process.

These people are destroyers of democracy.
