On Tuesday night, NBC threw what could be described as a hissy fit following President Trump’s first State of the Union address by attacking it as a “subdued” and “tired” President and speech that will keep “the fact checkers...busy” but didn’t address Russia or gun control.

Today co-host Savannah Guthrie praised it as “bright,” “conciliatory,” and “optimistic,” but Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd felt betrayed that he had been “oversold” at an off-the-record lunch earlier in the day about how much the President would “outreach” to Democrats.
