Chris Cillizza and Chuck Todd were chatting on a podcast about politics and the funniest moment happened. It was ripe for jokes and X came through.

Chris left himself wide open for that one.

Preach!
The lack of self-awareness when making that comment...
— Rusty (@Rusty_Weiss) March 23, 2026
The lack of self awareness between these 2 is pretty awesome tbh

Self-awareness level zero.
That’s from a South Park episode.

We know!

Of course, it's not an original thought. Heh.
Both of you are a cancer for media and you’re both turd sandwiches

It's one of those situations when you hope they both lose.
Which one of you is which? BTW, I only say that insult because you both are very biased progressive activists and won’t admit it.

And neither of them hides it particularly well.
That's how most people feel when deciding between legacy media outlets.
— Jack Baez (@NotreDameFan27) March 24, 2026
Fair point.
I agree with that analogy with watching either of you. So I choose neither. And I’m happy.

Kinda like media choices

Touche.
Agree, if we're talking about the participants in this podcast
— Steve Schneider (@Schneider_Stv) March 23, 2026
Yeah, we know all too well. Criminy, no self-awareness at all.

And just like that, your guys show has the perfect name
Get ready for a merchandise line.
How’s that for a sound bite!
— Michael DaSilva (@MikeDaSilvaNews) March 23, 2026
It's a banger.
As you both post from your basements.

So poetic.
