Chuck Todd said today on Chris Cillizza’s “So What” podcast:

CHUCK TODD: Obama radicalized the far right; it was the same thing. The far right viewed Obama as some left-winger when Obama was basically a degree more liberal than Bill Clinton. CHRIS CILLIZZA: Temperamentally a moderate, right? Probably liberal on policy, but temperamentally a moderate. CHUCK TODD: What policy was he that liberal on, Chris? It’s one of the biggest– CHRIS CILLIZZA: It was because he was black. CHUCK TODD: Thank you. The only reason people think he was liberal is because he’s black. Like it’s this, he governed more closely to George W. Bush than Donald Trump.
