Chuck Todd: Voters Want Less Trump

‘Folks spoke pretty clearly last week they want change’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
TODD: "Good evening, I am Chuck Todd in Washington. What happens if you ignore the voters on multiple fronts. Folks spoke pretty clearly last week they want change starting with the presidehavior. They want less trump. Belittling one close ally and berating another one. Firing his attorney general in the aftermath of the elections and reportedly maneuvering to oust others. The list goes on and on. The other clear message from voters last week, they want change not just from the president but from congressional leadership too. Voters didn't seem too pleased with the collective work of leaders like Mcconnell, Schumer, Nancy Pelosi. After a slue of leadership races and major change from the voters, today on Capitol Hill it looks high lie likely that the leadership of the next Congress will be, you guess it had, Mcconnell, Schumer Pelosi and Mccarthy. They were sort of promotions. Not anybody shaken things up. For instance, here's what the old leadership of the Senate Democrats looks like. Now we're going to show you the new leadership that Democrats chose today in the Senate. Don't adjust your televisions. Its exactly the same. House Democrats are holding leadership elections after Thanksgiving and at this point there is no one in the party running against Nancy Pelosi or the number two. There is some notable angst in the party about that situation."
