Former President Donald Trump blasted Chuck Todd in a recent late night rant, accusing him of playing a leading role in the events that resulted in Ronna McDaniel’s swift departure as an NBC News contributor.
McDaniel was removed from the RNC as part of a strategic move by the Trump administration to appoint Lara Trump as his successor in late February.
On Friday, NBC made a significant announcement regarding the hiring of McDaniel.
However, the following day, MSNBC reversed course and made it clear that they were not in favor of this decision and hinted that she would not be accepted on their network.
Former President Trump chimed in on the unfolding drama at the liberal network.
“What boss or executive would allow a man or woman, in this case Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd, who was fired for dismal performance coupled with horrendous television ratings, to publicly SCOLD them as to their weakness & stupidity in hiring Ronna McDaniel.” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.
“Actually, they should be scolded for hiring “Sleepy” for Meet the Fake Press, and keeping him on so long despite his poor performing skills, bad ratings, and bias. The sick degenerates over at MSDNC are really running NBC, and there seems nothing Chairman Brian Roberts can do about it. Watching Chuck Todd, of all people, viciously giving Roberts a piece of his small mind, and then berating him for hiring Ronna without his, or the other lunatics, approval, was just a step too far.” he continued.
“Brian’s great father would have fired Chuck Todd, and all the rest of these losers, on the spot. Perhaps Brian still will. If I knew Ronna was going to troubled MSNBC, I would have advised her to change her name back to Romney, she would have had a better chance!” he concluded.
