Hello there, I'm Chuck Todd. I just got off the Meet the Press set on Sunday. We just wrapped

0:10.4

up, we had exclusive interviews with the White House Chief Staff Ron Clay, the newly

0:15.0

re-elected Governor New Jersey Phil Murphy, and the man in charge of the Republican Senate

0:20.2

campaign committee for 2022. It was Senator Rick Scott of Florida, I'm sitting here now.

0:25.1

The Press Executive Producer, John Reese, for Return, and Carrie Budeauf Brown. I may know

0:31.0
