NBC's Chuck Todd under fire for asking Biden if Trump has 'blood on his hands' for delayed coronavirus response

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.

Anything done before Corona got “sexy” as a “crisis” was deemed Xenophobic and racist and un-American. Remember F-Cuck Todd wanker? They think they have POTUS in a box.

What a piece of $h!t that upchuck todd is! It’s obvious that the campaign has started - that is the campaign conducted by the media to paint a rosy picture of the dem candidate and to cast $h!t on the Republican. They’re going to transform a gropey, incompetent bastard who never amounted to anything, into a picture of a smart, talented, wise man who respects women etc etc.

Are these Rat's and media prostitutes so stupid as to think after all this is over that they can bring Grandpa Joe back out of where ever they're hiding him and say "He's back!''. I'm betting on them running Como.

Chuck has been in deep depression since the democrats’ attempts to impeach Trump all failed.

Now he’s trying to assist the democrats in another attempt to remove Trump from office.

There is no doubt that Chuck is still trying on his own to remove Trump from office. Chuck is the exact same as Schiff and Nadler and Schumer and Nancy Pelosi and the unhinged members of the ‘squad’, all of the players behind the impeachment attempts. He is a big part of the Washington swamp.

I suspect it was a set-up, formal or informal, to make Biden appear to be a noble statesman. It’s a stretch, all right, but there’s a lot of that going on right now.

A whistleblower said that the cdc literally lied to the President about their testing capabilities - most assuredly so that they could then turn and say “delayed response”. It’s nonsense.

When Trump stopped the importation of this virus by shutting down all incoming people from the effected areas it was something that no president had ever done before. BIDEN, NANCY and the leadership of the house all said it was premature, unnecessary and racist.

None of them wanted Trump to react that early and specifically said so.

Now they are trying to cover their butts and say the total opposite. They are LIARS.

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.

And everyone knows the man who want’s less dealings with China, and more border control is TRUMP.

We all saw the media go into little hissy fits when he acted strongly re: travel bans.

Also, Americans are not dumb, who here knows someone A. With COVID19 and/or B Died from it?
PERSONALLY KNOWS SOMEONE?

This is why the ramped up hysteria will not work too much longer.

Dear lying scum in the Fake News

There was no delay. Stop with the sleazy lying attempts at politicizing this. You scum called Trump “racist” when he immediately moved to ban travel from China.

So just stop lying. No one is fooled by your pathetic scumbag behavior.

BINGO!

Would that be the same Paul Ryan that decided not to run for re election to be with his family?
The Paul Ryan who went to work for a K Street lobby group?
That Paul Ryan who sat on his hands for the first two years of the Trump administration?
If it is that Paul Ryan, there is a special place under hell for him.

so this is their MO.
While they were busy with Impeachment, they paid no attention.
Trump enacted the National Emergency the very day the WHO called this a Global Pandemic.

Hugh Hewitt has shown himself to be a Deep State suckup. He pushed for Corey Gardner in Colorado who has been a disappointment.
