What Does Chuck Todd Miss Most About Miami?

By Brian Flood 

NBC’s Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd spoke with the Miami Herald, about his job, Donald Trump and President Barack Obama. The political junkie also discusses vacationing in Florida, what he does to decompress and why he misses the Orange Bowl.

On Trump:

He’s a charmer. He is that old-school politician like Bill Clinton. Anyone he meets, he wants them to like him, and you understand why he’s been so successful in business. It’s a skill and clearly his gift.

On Obama:

He is charismatic but very much the regular guy. He loves talking basketball. I have a feeling when we see him in public afterward it will be at a lot of NBA games. That’s my guess.

When Todd isn’t working, he prays “the phone doesn’t ring” and watches reruns of “Family Guy to decompress.” However, the die-hard Packers fan wasn’t watching cartoons on Sunday. A quick glance at his Twitter timeline reveals how he spent the afternoon.
