Of course what the tRumplican masses will say is Chuck Todd was being rude to the, ahem, esteemed congressman from Ohio. I honestly think that's the only reason Jordan appeared on the show in the first place. To chum the waters for the Republican base. They're about as willing to listen to the facts as Gym Jordan is.
BTW, before anyone protests otherwise I did see the interview. Chuck Todd seemed at times quoting facts to a brick wall.

Of course MAGAmorons will say that Democrats are to blame.

It's been clear for a while that over-consumption of RW conspiracy propaganda can push vulnerable people over the mental health edge.

Speaking of stupid tRumpkin tricks. We've all seen on the news by now the balloon from China crossing our country at fifty-thousand feet. Of course the MAGA are making the most of it, convinced it's a Chinese spying device. I think the Chinese are technologically advanced enough that they could spy on us (and probably are) from a satellite in space. Same as we no doubt are doing to them. Here's where the stupid tRumpkin trick part comes in. tRump junior has decided the citizens of Montana should "take matters into their own hands". tRump's oldest son seems to think the "visitor" from China floating along at 50,000 feet can be brought down with small arms fire. I'm sure Jr. was just babbling to get air-time but the prospect of a bunch of vigilantes firing high powered weapons skyward, what could go wrong (sarcasm).

Fortunately to end most of the chatter on this topic, the balloon has been shot down over the Atlantic near NC. Now the conspiracies about what was in the balloon will begin.

This ought to get real interesting. Any chance I get I'm going to troll the MAGA faithful by saying "You thought it was the Chinese but..."

I speculate that it was a high altitude floating signals gathering station.

Trump Junior tried to gather a posse to shoot down the balloon.

Trump Jr. Calls on Montanans to Destroy the Chinese Spy Balloon Themselves

"If Joe Biden and his administration are too weak to do the obvious and shoot down an enemy surveillance balloon perhaps we just let the good people of Montana do their thing... I imagine they have the capability and the resolve to do it all themselves," Trump Jr. tweeted late Friday morning.
