An Exasperated Chuck Todd Grills Trump: 'You're Running for President! Your Words Matter!'
Mediaite ^ | 11/29/15 | Josh Feldman

Posted on 11/29/2015 8:05:34 AM PST by jimbo123

Chuck Todd once again confronted Donald Trump on Meet the Press and appeared to get more and more exasperated with Trump's false claim that thousands of New Jersey Muslims cheered on 9/11.

Todd pointed out that Trump has demanded "pinpoint accuracy" from the media--and at pretty much every rally Trump has called the press "dishonest"--and asked, "Why shouldn't we demand the same pinpoint accuracy in the claims that you make? Isn't it hypocritical of you calling us out if we're not calling you out when you stray from the truth?"

He repeatedly challenged Trump on that 9/11 claim, and Trump still insisted he saw it and bragged that many other people saw it happen and called/tweeted him to let him know that he's absolutely right.

Todd shot back, "That doesn't make it true!"

Trump said the cheering from Muslims happened "all around the world" so "why wouldn't it have taken place."

Chuck Todd once again ... sells himself out, to his mainstream media handlers.

No surprise, whatsoever.

“exasperated with Trump’s false claim that thousands of New Jersey Muslims cheered on 9/11”

Well if it’s false it must have been a mass delusion because lots of other people saw it as well.

Maybe Chuck Todd should consider that the President’s words and promises should matter. MSM are just leftist dishonest lapdog shills.

The media, the dems, the GOP establishment-they can do and say whatever they want to about Trump. It does not matter. At this point, only Trump can take out Trump.

They fail to acknowledge they key fact that is keeping trump on top - He is NOT one of them! He says what we want to say. He expresses our frustrations and anger towards THEM and their efforts to sell America to the highest corporate or foreign bidder. HIS opinion of what it will take to make America great again is also OUR opinion. Trump wants to govern WITH us-not in spite of us.

ANY candidate who expresses these positions will have the support of the middle class. But Trump has the ability to withstand the organized efforts to crush him. And they are trying so very hard to do just that.

Gotta love the left’s perpetual state of phony outrage. Were they as outraged when Biden told a paralyzed man to stand up? No.

Yep! Trump should have replied:

“Chuck, are you and others in the media asking for pinpoint accuracy from President Obama? Sec State Kerry? Hillary Clinton? If not, why not? Chuck?”

Are you kidding? Chuck Todd doesn’t have to sell himself out. He IS the mainstream media. That’s exactly how he thinks. His aim is/has always been to take out any Republican candidate he can.

I think I saw something on television ‘news’ about the Muslims parting in new Jersey, but I do not have a copy of the tape and cannot verify it. Thatis Trump’s problem,= and I can pretty much Guaran-damn-tee, you will never see anyone in the media find a copy in their archives and show it.

Yep, everyone in the Media got their Democrat marching orders that this was the issue to use to attack Trump. Yet Obama lies and lies and lies and they never say a word.

What about the media’s “words”, the words that were printed in Post before NJ went into full-press denial. What about media reports period when they come from lying, agenda-driven news organizations?
