President Donald Trump offered rare praise of former NBC journalist Chuck Todd, thanking him for remarks on the president’s impact while ranting about Todd’s old network.
Trump particularly loved a comment Todd made to independent journalist David Brody, where Todd said, “I don’t think we’ve had anybody with this much impact on the Country since FDR.”
Taking to Truth Social Tuesday morning, Trump lauded Todd:
“I don’t think we’ve had anybody with this much impact on the Country since FDR.” Chuck Todd, formerly of NBC FAKE NEWS, in an interview with journalist David Brody. Wow, thank you Chuck. I always said that you were far better than the scum that runs the FAKE NEWS at NBC and, especially, Brian Roberts and “Concast.” You are a Free Man now. Congratulations – Use your time well!

Todd left NBC earlier this year after nearly 20 years at the network, including a nine-year stint as Meet the Press moderator.
Trump’s praise is a new ripple in his relationship with Todd, whom he used to call “Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd” on social media.
