Chuck Todd Tees off on Schumer: ‘You’re Part of the Problem’

HUNT: “All right. Senator Chuck Schumer, I know you got to go. I appreciate your time today.”

Schumer: “Thank you.”

HUNT: “I’ll see you soon, I hope. Thank you.”

Schumer: “Take care.”

HUNT: “All right.”

Schumer: “Bye bye.

HUNT: “And our panel joins us now. CNN political commentator Jonah Goldberg, the host of The Chuck ToddCast, Chuck Todd, Democratic strategist Paul Begala, Republican pollster Kristen Soltis Anderson, both CNN political commentators. Chuck Todd, go.”

Todd: “He is among the people that are responsible for this. The leaders of the Democratic Party, the staff of the White House. And I have to say, I find everybody now talking to these authors, get out of here. Go home. You’re part of the problem. Now you tell us? So, I just — and I find, you know, the reason why the Democratic Party has less credibility today, here’s an unpopular president, and the Democratic Party has a worse rating than the Republican Party with this catastrophic governance that we’ve seen over the last 120 days. And yet, why is the Democratic Party in worse shape? Because of this distrust, because of this, frankly, what the public feels as if the party leadership let them down and let them let this happen. He’s as responsible as anybody else. He was a leader in the party. He could’ve said something sooner, and he didn’t.”
