NBC’s Chuck Todd has a rare opportunity to interview Donald Trump on Meet The Press, but the Twittersphere isn’t exactly giving Todd high marks.
Trump peddles false claim that California "admitted to a million votes" during a discussion with Chuck Todd about "illegal voting." #MTP
Todd bungled this one. He should have explained what actually happened in the Judicial Watch settlement.https://t.co/SLwutshV2z pic.twitter.com/hF46DbzbDC

When he’s asked about child separation, President Trump often makes the false claim that Obama started the policy. Pretty amazing that Chuck Todd let him do it again without pressing the issue. pic.twitter.com/LwnPsmooWF

So much going on in the world, yet given an extremely rare (unless you’re a Fox host) opportunity to interview Trump, and Chuck Todd’s over here asking the political equivalent of “What’s your favorite color?” https://t.co/DvWcuPfPm8

Just a few days ago Chuck Todd was attacking AOC for being accurate. Today he's slurping Trump. #mtp #IfItsSunday https://t.co/OZGuE98a2w

The silver lining of this week's #MeetThePress is that it has exposed a wider audience to Chuck Todd's embarrassing, anodyne access journalism and water carrying for the establishment. https://t.co/G21TgssRip

What’s worse? That Trump says billons of dollars in deals means MBS can get away with murder or that there aren’t actual billions of dollars in deals? Or that Chuck Todd totally fails to challenge him on the falsehood that there are billions of dollars in Saudi investments/deals? https://t.co/rexfVJj3Pi
