Trump to Chuck Todd on 9/11 Claim: “Take it Easy, Chuck. I’m Not Taking it Back”
People's Pundit Daily ^ | November 29, 2015

Posted on 11/29/2015 1:46:06 PM PST by SMGFan

Donald Trump told “Meet the Press” host Chuck Todd on Sunday he was not taking back his comments that American Muslims in New Jersey were cheering after September 11, 2001.

Todd repeatedly grilled Trump for saying last week “thousands and thousands” of Muslims in Jersey City, NJ, celebrated the World Trade Center attack. In fact, Todd spent more than half of the interview questioning and even rejecting Trump’s claim.

“You demand and you’ve demanded of me pinpoint accuracy when I report on things about you, including, for instance, your net worth,” Todd said in his very first question of the interview. “Why shouldn’t we demand the same pinpoint accuracy in the claims that you make?”

Trump didn’t back down, instead pointing to the calls, emails and tweets he has received from supporters backing up his claim.

“I saw it. So many people saw it … So, why would I take it back? I’m not going to take it back.”

Loved the way he kept interrupting him and not letting him finish his inane sentences.

Hey!!! Trump is right! Why does the press cover for Islam and why do sooo many politicians pander Muslims/Islam....you can’t mention God or Jesus in public schools and you can’t thank the Almighty at the completion of a good sports play....the double standard is getting pretty old....like 3 day old fish, it smells!

Trump’s comment not withstanding, does anyone doubt that muslims in New Jersey DID celebrate? I have no doubt that it happened, we all know deep down that it did, and I would bet that the leftists have dutifully scrubbed the internet of any reference to this happening. They have had 14 years to do so.

Of course Trump was correct and THAT is driving the GOPE ( Romney, jebbie, McQueeg, Rove, etc. ) and the lefties NUTS !

I've NEVER seen such a pile on, of anyone, at any previous time, in the run-up to the primaries, and I've been paying attention to politics all of my life. And my "salad days" are long gone.

I saw it. My best guess - the stupid people changed channels from the 9/11 attack to ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’.

I am so sick of that smarmy Chuck Todd. When one knows how much he is, literally, married to the DNC.
