NBC News anchor Chuck Todd said "press bashing" is not a fit activity for a president, just moments after President Trump laid into several reporters at the White House in his first solo press conference as president.

Trump assailed the "dishonest" media for doing "a tremendous disservice to the American people."

After, Todd warned that "this is not a laughing matter."

He added, "I'm sorry, delegitimizing the press is un-American."

Delegitimizing the President is far more unAmerican, but a leftist idiot like Todd would not understand that.

F Chuck is a particularly vile species of swamp creature isn’t he?

I am glad I don’t watch TV news else I’d be poorer for smashing screens every few hours.

Here is what is unAmerican. Lies about Russians doing anything in our election to cover for failed liberalism and a candidate that was a unindicted criminal and bribe taker! That is un-American!!

“...delegitimizing the press is un-American”

No it isn’t. No when the “press” has become an established wing of the democrat party. They are now the opposition party, and will be treated as thus.

They deserve NO respect, none. The only thing they deserve is our ridicule and scorn.

Dear Chuck Todd,

I have been a witness of you and your cohorts for 54 years.

For a bunch of people that do nothing to contribute to the National GDP of America, you sure have and continue to have your mouths moving a lot, with nothing of any substance coming out.

Anytime somebody with some grit stands up and attempts to do something right for this country, oh, has the volume of nattering ever gone up and out of your mouths, and none to aid that person.

You live in all those high-falutin’ buildings or homes that cost two or three what a blue-collar American paid for their place.

You live far away and removed from any of what life is for many, many folks in this country.

I reject what you do, what you say, or what you write, because you are that anesthetized, that you are not real.

They are liberals...they have an agenda...that agenda has been, and will continue to be, bad for America.

Calling a spade a spade is NOT un-American, they're just not used to NOT having COMPLETE control over the message, and their anger is showing.

The can all ESAD!

MAGA

Was it un-American when Obama constantly bashed Rush and Fox News?

Delegitimizing the press is as American as apple pie.

The press can't even act defensive with a shred of competency.

Calling out presstitutes as lying pieces of sh** is more than patriotic.
