Chuck “Both Sides” Todd thinks NBC went too far.

During the interview, McDaniel indicated that she disagreed with Trump’s pledge to pardon rioters who stormed the Capitol on January 6th. She also said that she believes that Joe Biden was elected president “fair and square.” But Welker pressed McDaniel on her past refusal to say that Biden was legitimately elected, running a clip from an interview she gave to Chris Wallace on CNN in July.

“I don’t think he won it fair,” McDaniel said in that interview.

Well that clears that up.

    Is it really that surprising? They have Michael Steele as a regular guest for having held literally the exact same position

      To my understanding, Michael Steele isn’t part of the MAGA movement nor has he spoken out in favor of the big lie. The difference between him and Ronna McDaniel is monumental. They’re not nearly the same because they both were RNC chairpersons.

        IMO everyone in the RNC is guilty of laying the grounds for what it is now.

        They deserve no pity for their misfortune of failing to become part of the in group of the cult of personality.

          Absolutely. Republicans spent the last century sewing discord. And now surprised as they reap the whirlwind. No sympathy for them. They’re simply upset that someone turned their own weapon against them and took it away from them. They all gleefully lied and misrepresented. In order to get what they wanted. But now that they aren’t getting even that they expect us to feel sorry for them.

      Have you ever watched MSNBC? Michael Steele is super far from a MAGA cultists. He openly attacks Trump. Not exactly apples to apples.
