Chuck Todd is NBC News' chief political analyst and the former moderator of 'Meet The Press.'
Ever since the rise of Donald Trump, many folks involved in politics have theorized about how we got here — and done a little introspection about whether anyone could have stopped him. But my assumption is that there are three people alive today who probably do more “what if” thinking about Trump’s rise than anyone else: Barack Obama , Hillary Clinton and Mitt Romney .
By the fall of the campaign, he clearly didn’t like the campaign he was running. He lamented the lack of a message beyond replacing Obama, and he was frustrated that he did what he vowed he’d never do: let some out-of-context comment haunt his campaign . The fallout over Romney’s comments calling 47% of the country “takers,” from a leaked recording of a high-dollar fundraiser, sent him spiraling to the point that he asked his own campaign manager whether he should drop out of the race.
