Chuck slams President Trump as Un-American: Controversy Continues

In 2017, NBC's Chuck tweeted during President Trump‘s Thursday press conference. To all the plans and new rules implemented by Trump, Todd slammed saying he is Un-American.

The main reason is believed that Todd found Trump’s constant delegitimization and labeling the press “fake news” the most dangerous aspect.

Trump said,

“I’m making this presentation directly to the American people with the media present — which is an honor to have you this morning — because many of our nation’s reporters and folks will not tell you the truth.”

I bring my kids up to respect the office of the presidency and the president. I don’t allow them to say anything negative, ever, about the president. It creates a challenge to all parents when he uses vulgarities like that.

Let's hope the round-up of their conflict comes to an end.
