Chuck Todd: Obama Is Not Being the 'Adult in the Room'

Tuesday on Newsmax TV’s “The Steve Malzberg Show,” “Meet the Press” moderator and political director of NBC News Chuck Todd said he is surprised at President Barack Obama’s unwillingness to comprise with Republicans and delay his executive order amnesty. 

Todd said Obama, “Set himself up as saying, ‘Hey I’m the adult in the room.’ Well if your going to be the adult in the room you always have to be the adult in the room.”

He added, “If I were President Obama, I would take this immigration — you feel as if you always want to get, I use the phrase ‘get caught trying.’ I’m surprised he’s not saying, ‘OK, here’s everything I’m going do with executive action but I’m going to do it on June 1, 2015. Alright guys, [you] wanted one more shot. OK I’ll give you one more shot.”
