Chuck Todd says no one but Trump has had 'this much impact on the country since FDR'

Former NBC News' Meet the Press host Chuck Todd said that no one but President Trump has had "this much impact on the country since FDR."

Todd made the comparison between Trump and former President Franklin D. Roosevelt in a Christian Broadcast Network interview, with a clip of the exchange with journalist David Brody posted on X on Monday.

"I don't think we've had anybody have this much impact on the country since FDR," Todd said when Brody asked him about looking at Trump's impact historically.

"Culturally, in particular, certainly in how even our politics is conducted, in that sense. I think the question is, 'Does he have impact on policy for decades to come?'" he added. "But I think culturally, in particular, certainly on our political identity, I think he's had -- not since FDR we had this kind of, a president with -- look, he wants to involve himself in everything. FDR involved himself in almost everything."

Todd gave an example of Trump's involvement, noting that it includes "who the CEO of Intel should be."

Last week, Trump called for Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan's resignation, saying he is “highly conflicted” due to his Chinese investments.

"I mean, you know, these are things that you and I know, the previous Republican Party would have – 'how dare the government tell business what to do!' And yet, there's almost an accepted – there's no outcry, right? So that's real change," Todd said.
