Chuck Todd: GOP Reps Talking Impeachment on Fox Are Playing Into W.H. Hands

‘The White House is in cahoots, apparently, with Roger Ailes and Chris Wallace to get Steve King on Fox’

Chuck Todd: GOP Reps Talking Impeachment on Fox ‘Playing into White House’ Hands’ (Mediaite)

Representative Steve King (R-IA) dropped the I-word on Fox News Sunday yesterday, the second Sunday in a row in which a member of the GOP refused to rule out the possibility of impeachment. This led Chuck Todd to point out on Morning Joe that these guys aren’t exactly helping the Republican narrative that it’s the Democrats pushing impeachment, and in fact are playing into the hands of the DNC, which is using the impeachment chatter to raise boatloads of money.

“So the White House is in cahoots, apparently, with Roger Ailes and Chris Wallace to get Steve King on Fox,” Todd goofed. “You couldn’t have played into the White House’s hands more. I think the White House would love if everybody booked Steve King twenty-four hours a day.”
