(snip) NBC's 'Meet the Press' host Chuck Todd repeatedly asked Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin about the president's attitude, language, and word choice.
President Trump made fun of the NBC host's "sleepy eyes" at a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday, and speculated that NBC might be "worse than CNN". "He's a sleeping son of a bitch, I'll tell you," Trump said about Chuck Todd's droopy eyes.
"I understand you wanted to get back on an economic message, but ... last night he was praising authoritarian figures in China and North Korea and encouraging boos at the American press," Chuck Todd reported. "Does this mean this American president is now longer going to be preaching about the values of freedom of the press and democracy around the world?"
The Treasury Secretary replied that he is on the show to talk about policy and wants to focus on that.
"If that's what we should be focused on, why can't the president focus on that, sir? ... Would you call last night's speech a focused speech?" Todd asked.
"I wasn't at the campaign rally, ..." Mnuchin stated.
Todd doubled down: "So should we stop covering the campaign rally? If it doesn't matter what he says there. If we're to dismiss everything he says at the campaign rally as you're trying to imply, are you saying we shouldn't cover these things?"
"You're putting words in my mouth," Mnuchin said. "You should obviously carry them because these are important moments for the president and this is news. What I'm trying to say is, I'm focused on the policies... What I came to talk about were the president's policies."
Asked for a question on policy, Chuck Todd asked one final question: "When [President Trump] uses vulgarity to talk about individuals, what are they supposed to tell their kids?"

Perhaps the same thing one might tell their kids after hearing vulgarities in any recent Hollywood release?
At least Trump doesn’t rake in vast sums of money for realistically slaughtering scores of other actors on the silver screen then piously advocate gun elimination at an event protected by hundreds of armed guards...
Kids, you don’t mess with the bull, you’ll get the horns. - every night these leftist media types with their DNC talking points promote hatred, mockery, and insults at our President. I’m SICK OF IT! He got what he deserved, they all did. THAT”S how you handle a BULLY!
Is Todd so stupid as to think his kids haven’t heard “bad” words at school? And much worse than what is shown on television? Give me a break!!
What did Mnuchin say?
“...google Monica Lewinski...”
WINNER!
Is that a beard, or has Sleepy Chuck been eating the dog’s food lately?
I guess they choose to ignore all the horrible things that come out of democrat mouths.
Chuck has the face of a mange riddled dogs ass
tell ‘em not to get all wee-weed up.
Why can’t Mnunchin just hit him with a come back like Ctell your kids not to grow a nasty goatee?”
That you are a sleepy eyed, demonRAT, blowhard and also a sonofabitch as well as a sonofawhore.
Tell your kids that their grandma was a whore dog, and you can {and often do} lick your own genitalia, as can all male dogs.
Piss off, F. Chuck.
Tell them how much of a pussy you are Chuck. They’ll figure it out eventually as they get older, but will appreciate your honesty if you save them the trouble.
Tell them that he’s using Democrats’ language so they’ll understand.
I take that to mean that Trump's appearance or behavior needs to be judged in light of his accomplishments. Trump uses crude language because that is OUR language today. He recognizes that appearing "Presidential" has no value if the message or goals are wrong.
Chuck Todd is such an alter boy... or he’s a two bit phony...(I’m going with the latter)
Hey Chuck - everyone boinks liberal sluts... and YOU talk about it on your show... milking Stormy for everything you can.
NBC told out kids about Clinton sticking a cigar up a liberal woman’s tw—. The MSM told us about Kennedy killing a woman - driving her off a bridge while drunk... and the press gave him a pass. NOW THAT WAS OBSCENE. What about the rape of Juanita... and the obscene PASS because Juanita wasn’t an ‘elite’ liberal woman. You want vulgar? THAT was vulgar Chuck.
So give it a rest Chuck Todd - we know what liberals put up with when it’s ‘one of their own’... and we’re NOT impressed - or afraid - or intimidated by your BS ‘concern’ about ‘vulgar’...
Chuck Toad getting all we weed up.
Mnuchin should have said “how old are you Chuck, two”?
“They are your kids, tell them whatever you want”.
Ask them what a Lewinsky is. Depending on the meaning of the word is.
I wonder what he tells his kids when two guys are makin’ out on TV?
His kids probably know more about that stuff than Toad does.
