Chuck Todd does not intend to let Donald Trump slide away without answering questions on this weekends big Meet the Press showdown.
Despite his reputation for phoning-in interviews (perhaps literally?), Trump will sit down with Todd this Sunday morning in Iowa, opening himself up to all kinds of in-person confrontations. Mediaite readers may recall that Trump has a long history of name-calling when it comes to the NBC host, often referring to Todd as sleepy eyes.
Speaking with Sirius XM radio host Michael Smerconish on Friday, Todd said that he much prefers the in-person scenario because it helps prevent the interviewee from filibustering as easily as he could via telephone or satellite feed. Moreover, Todd said he plans to take on Trump much in the same way as one would take on Will Ferrells Austin Powers character: By asking him a question multiple times, if needed to get a simple answer.
Listen below for the full interview below, via The Michael Smerconish Program, and check Mediaite on Sunday for full coverage of Todds interview:

You'll notice no one else gets the third degree like Trump does. And Hey Chuck thanks for the telegraph.
What about asking Hillary and O the questions multiple times? That would really take balls.
Eff Chuck Todd can go EFF himself.
Chuck plan your vacation now.
Diamond Donald Trump will put the WWE DDT on you like he did to Me Gyn Crowley.
Perry DDT
Crowley Kelly DDT
Get DDT or get Steamrolled.
Trump right on immigration on getting Keystone running,
right on getting jobs back.
Good of nasty F. Chuck Toad to announce his plans!
Mr. Trump now has ample warning!
Well politicians will try to avoid answering questions they don’t like so I have no problem with a news person pressing them about it. But, not if it gets to the point of attacking or smearing.
What Trump should do is to answer really, really slowly and completely upset the pace of what Chucky has to do to jump around from topic to topic as he does. And in every answer, he should figure out a way to leave a turd in the answer so that Chucky bites on it. Not that he would even be listening.
Trump already knew Todd has special needs.
Trump will hit him right between the sleepy eyes.
I would be cool if Trump's people did opposition research on Chuck Todd and asked his some embarrassing questions.
LOLOL
Let’s get all f’n objective here for a minute.
FCT, question, how many probing questions have you thrusted at the Democrat candidates compared to the Republican?
This veil is thin, like a membrane. In fact, FCT your a fissure in everyones ass.
Trump needs to eviserate this fool.
Trump should get up and leave if he is disrespected by this over-paid , under-talented news reader. No one but the Democrat media would blame him.
Do that to everyone Chuck, EVERYONE!
F Chuck Todd is the epitome of the medical definition of ANAL WARTS.
Here we go again. FU Chuck Todd.
Exactly my thought. Trump will have no problem hitting that curve ball 566 feet (one foot more than mantle’s longest homer)
What about every politician that ducks and dodges questions to get to their talking points. These dolts act like Donald is avoiding questions when he faces more head on than just about anyone.
