Chuck Todd Observes Durbin Didn't Think There Needed to Be a SCOTUS Delay Two Years Ago....
Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) is one of several Democrats demanding President Trump keep his Supreme Court nominees to himself until after the midterm elections. Two years ago he was singing a different tune. Justice Antonin Scalia had just passed away and Durbin said we need nine justices on the court. The only difference? President Obama was still in office. "Meet the Press" host Chuck Todd confronted the senator about his hypocrisy on his show Sunday.
"I understand that," Todd returned. "Where are you on this now? Do you want it delayed? I understand you want to point out hypocrisy on McConnell’s side, but there is hypocrisy for you, too. If it was wrong in 2016, is it wrong now?"
"Come on, Chuck," Durbin said. "Get real. Senator McConnell invented this rule. Wouldn’t consider a meeting with Merrick Garland.".....snip~

Yet Todd, didn't call out Durbin for Lying. Which is what should have taken place. Sorry Dick.....the Demos invented breaking the Senate rules.
I would have been like.....Look Dick, don't come on my show and straight up lie to the American people. Otherwise you force me to put you on display as a liar. Got that Dick.
Of course Todd is a leftist and would never put his kind on the Spot.
