NBC News anchor Chuck Todd raised eyebrows Sunday morning when he asked if President Trump had "blood on his hands" for his delayed response to the coronavirus outbreak.
During an interview with former Vice President Joe Biden, Todd pointed to the Democrat's campaign messaging on the pandemic, which says a failure to take aggressive action "could cost lives."
"Do you think there is blood on the president's hands considering the slow response?" Todd asked. "Or is that too harsh of a criticism?"
Even Biden, who has been critical of the president throughout the crisis, thought the question was "a little too harsh."
"I think that's a little too harsh," he said. "I think ... he should stop thinking out loud and start thinking deeply. ... He should listen to the health experts. He should listen to his economists."
Biden added that there should be "laser focus" on implementing the massive financial relief bill passed by Congress to help struggling businesses and families.
"Tim Russert would never ask a question like this. Even Joe Biden didn’t take the bait to assist in a viral moment attempt," The Hill media reporter Joe Concha said, referring to Todd's "Meet The Press" predecessor.
Concha added: "Chuck Todd served as a moderator of an NBC News debate on Feb 19, which was more than two weeks after President Trump suspended travel from China. Number of questions Todd asked any of the candidates about Coronavirus? Zero."
Todd served as a moderator at the two-hour MSNBC/NBC News Democratic debate last month, where there was no mention of the ongoing virus outbreak.

There was no delayed response
PAUL RYAN fully agrees with Biden and Chuck Todd.
Jeb Bush, too.
DELAYED RESPONSE?! The DEMONRATS were screaming at Trump and making fun of him for shutting down flights from China at the beginning of this CHINA VIRUS pandemic.
Hugh Hewitt LOVES Chuck Todd, the Classless, VILE, EVIL Chuck Todd and Hugh treats him so damn kindly it;s disgusting!
It’s difficult to select the most despicable and deplorable member of the LSM.
This schmuck is definitely still in the running.
The only ones with blood on their hands are the communist Chinese who strategically unleashed this on the world.
What “slow response”?
Schmucky Todd is the scummiest of the scum.
There’s no limit to how far he would take his propaganda. Hitler had guys like this working for him too.
They don’t call them the Rat party for nothing.
Chuck Todd tries over and over again to get the Guest Experts to say the absolute worst he wants them to say. He really desires cornoavirus to esculate, as I see it. His hatred of Trump drools from his mouth like a rapid animal chasing after it’s prey!
Who listens to that poop stain Hugh Hewitt?
At some point, there’s going to be one Hell of a reckoning.
Chuck.
