Chuck Todd: Trump's Personal Character Makes Reelection An "Uphill Battle"
RCP Video ^ | 1-1-2020 | Ian Schwartz

Posted on 01/04/2020 8:09:06 PM PST by Sir Napsalot

NBC NEWS: 'Meet the Press' moderator Chuck Todd joins TODAY to look ahead at what’s to come in Washington in 2020.....

(snip)

"It's pretty simple campaign strategy, gin up the base and try to scare independents from the Democratic nominee," Todd said.

"It doesn't matter who the nominee is," Todd said of the Democratic candidates. "It is a strategy that depends on a middle of the electorate overlooking the president’s personal character and somehow getting him to reelection. I think it' a very uphill battle for him."

* Even more Eye Roll *

What more could the press (asterisks) dig up? Even if they have another 10 Access Hollywood tapes, it won't matter wrt voters' estimation of Trump "personal character".

Talk about Trump personal character is so 2015 - 2016. They (Left) should move on. How about issues voters are really interested in?

The only weakness is that same strategy that Dems used in 2018 to overtake the House, i.e., fake moderate Dems and healthcare scare, and GOP is going to take away your coverage and kill off grandmas.

And look what a Dem majority House has done so far....

Well I should amend that another possible weakness is that “Trump got us into another war” etc.

I’m afraid Dems/Leftists are going to milk it for all its worth.

Well Chuck, that’s basically what happened in 2016. Now he has a great record to run on as well.

I don’t think Iran will call Trump’s hand. They will jump around yell and shout and demonstrate and raise flags.... do nothing

Todd probably voted for Bill Clinton twice, and openly supported Hillary, which tells you everything you need to know about the role of ‘character’ in his decision making.

I know people who lap up every anonymously-sourced word Chuck Todd excretes as if they were from God himself.

Record low unemployment, record high stock market, record low border crossings, and jobs (as promised) coming back to America.

Who exactly has the uphill battle again, Chuck?

It would be an “uphill battle” for Chuck Todd to be an objective journalist.

Be careful, if your eyes roll any more it might tear your extraocular muscles. ;)

As for Chuck Todd, when Trump's opposition has the character of a CNN's newscasters, CNN might not want to make character a issue.

Chuck probably prefers Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren because, you know, they have no character flaws at all ...

They are desperate to deny Trump the opportunity to oversee this census. Beyond anything else, I believe this frightens them the most. The democrat majority is built on changing the electorate with illegals, having them vote, and having the party vote tens of thousands of phantom inactive names who they refuse to prune from the rosters. If Trump returns, illegals will not be included for electoral districts and more constitutional courts will again rule FOR America’s interests instead of invaders.

"Scare" people into voting for you. That's a first. And that's saying something for the LSM.
