On Wednesday, NBC’s Chuck Todd, speaking on “MTP Daily” about the testimony of Inspector General Michael Horowitz, breathed that “presidential conspiracy theories” resulting from the release of Horowitz’s report could wind up helping  President Trump.

 Todd started by saying, “Let’s be crystal clear here. The IG did find some alarming instances of FBI misconduct related to its applications to secretly monitor Carter Page. And he could not say whether political bias did or did not influence some of those specific decisions down the road. And, by the way, it’s not only political bias that could have influenced. It’s possible confirmation bias. Prosecutorial bias. Not all bias is red and blue in America,” as Mediaite reported.
