[See NewsBusters for more.] A smug Chuck Todd on Monday dismissed Benghazi at the Republican Convention as nothing more than “cheap unity” for the "lowest common denominator” crowd. Chris Matthews railed that the GOP speakers were presenting “third world rhetoric.” Todd insulted, “Benghazi... does serve Trump in another way positively, politically, which is  a way to unify this crowd quickly. It's a way to get cheap unity.” Citing anti-Trump moves at the convention, the Meet the Press host condescended, “Especially today given what happened this afternoon, [Trump] needs a little cheap unity here, getting things to get everybody unified.”
