Jonathan Turley Levels Chuck Todd for Claiming Trump Is 'Underming Incoming President
Red State.com ^ | November 22, 2020 | Nick Arama

Many in liberal media have been losing their mind that President Donald Trump has had the utter temerity to explore his legal options in regard to questions about the election.

You hear them tossing around all kinds of attack against Trump for doing so.

But surprise, surprise he has every right to do that. That is within the Constitution.

But but you wouldn’t know that if you listened to MSNBC’s Chuck Todd attacking Trump today on his show for Trump utilizing his legal options. Todd claimed Trump was attacking the process and “undermining the incoming president.”

Georgetown law professor Jonathan Turley called out MSNBC’s Chuck Todd for his hypocrisy.

It was a bit curious to hear Chuck Todd just now slam Trump for lying about election issues and undermining an incoming president. Todd has never corrected his own false statements and continued to fuel questions of legitimacy for the last four years. https://t.co/wvMQLoJ8dE

…I have said for over two weeks that the election should be ascertained for Biden to allow for an orderly transition. That does not end the challenges. However, Todd fueled debunked collusion allegations and has followed principles of accuracy at a considerable distance.

These same media folks had absolutely no issue with Al Gore exploring his legal options. These are the same people who catered to Stacey Abrams and Hillary Clinton who had no such questions about their elections but whose tantrums the media gave all kinds of life to. Because all three were Democrats. These are the same folks who had no issue with pushing the Russia collusion hoax and running who knows how many pieces attacking Trump’s legitimacy because of the phony story.

Here’s Chuck Todd a year ago, still pushing the claim that “Russia hacked the election” which never happened and was even debunked by Barack Obama himself.

Curious why the number one response to this report by every elected official isn’t concern about how easily the Russians hacked the election and how way too many Americans cheered this on… and hoped it was true rather than ethically decide it should be stopped

— Chuck Todd (@chucktodd) April 18, 2019

It was because of folks like Todd that so many Democrats believed and still believe that Russians somehow changed vote totals, that somehow the Russians made Trump president.

Where’s Todd’s coverage of how Joe Biden was involved in the Jan. 5, 2017 meeting to try to “Logan Act” Gen. Michael Flynn, “undermining the incoming president?” Pretty sure that you wouldn’t find it.

maybe when the deep state refers to russians in relation to hacking the 2016 election, they really mean anti-deep-state spooks who happen to be patriotic americans and who disabled the planned 2016 electoral fraud? this would imo tend to explain the level of vitriol: “hey! no fair! their cheaters were better than our cheaters!”

Jonathan Turley is one of the most intelligent men in this nation. He is very measured in his comments about anything regarding the Constitution and our laws. He is the adult in the room on all of that. Sounds like Jonathan was fed up with the childishness and ignorance of Mr. Todd.

“... the four stupidest men on cable. “

I think you meant (or should have meant) : “...the four most dishonest men on cable.”

Of course I know that not to be true because there is EXTREMELY stiff completion for the most dishonest/stupid men on cable.

You're Chuck Todd, you're within a semester's worth of hours from graduating from George Washington University. Instead, after getting fully indoctrinated on Harkin's staff as a gopher and then more gophering at the National Journal, you are noticed by David Bradley (cough cough spook mentor) and pushed up into NJ's internal void and you eventually claim editor-in-chief status for merely showing up not drunk.

But you never get those last couple of hours at GWU, not even when Russert brings you on board at Bradley's behest; even though you could have simply dialed it in with "Independent Study" to get the PoliSci BA??

Who do you think took notice of that??

Not just Chuck's Daddy issues, but his inability to focus and complete life goals?

And then push him into a marriage with a yellow-dog Democrat?

This guy is a cipher, a dupe.

That's the fraud who got the high sign from Fauxi for hitting Trump.
