Chuck Todd challenged the “inevitability” of Donald Trump as the 2024 GOP presidential nominee, saying the belief amounts to the same “failure of imagination” that led to his 2016 win.
Todd said that “the idea that he cannot be beaten in this Republican primary has been a source of strength for him.” The Meet the Press anchor noted that the debate was a peek into what the Republican party could resemble without Trump onstage.
Last week, Fox News hosted the first Republican primary debate while Trump sat for an interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, which aired just as the debate was beginning.
