NBC's Chuck Todd: Trump Seems More Enraged By Female Criticism

NBC's "Meet the Press" host Chuck Todd said Wednesday that President Trump "seems to get more enraged when a woman criticizes him than when a man" does in an interview with Megyn Kelly on her NBC morning program.

According to The Hill, the commentary comes after Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) called on the president to resign after being accused by several women of sexual misconduct in the past.

Trump responded by tweeting that Gillibrand used to come to his office "begging" for donations and was a person who "would do anything for them."

Kelly, who after a dismal start with “Megan Kelly Today” has enjoyed a ratings bump while making sexual harassment a prominent theme, tacked the issue on Wednesday by quoting a fiery USA Today editorial that included the opinion that the president "pours the gasoline of sexist language and lights the match, gleefully knowing how it will burst."

Todd's comment starts at the 6:45 time mark:
