On March 11, 2018, Meet the Press aired its 10th episode of the 2018 season. The popular Sunday morning political talk show featured a variety of guests from different political perspectives, discussing the latest news and issues in American politics.
One of the main topics of the episode was the ongoing debate over gun control in America, following the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida a month prior. Host Chuck Todd interviewed several guests, including David Hogg and Emma Gonzalez, two survivors of the shooting who had become outspoken advocates for gun control in the aftermath of the tragedy.
During the segment, Todd and his guests discussed a range of topics related to gun control, including the effectiveness of different policy proposals (such as universal background checks and assault weapons bans), the role of the National Rifle Association in American politics, and the attitudes of young people towards gun ownership and regulation.
In addition to the gun control debate, the episode also featured several other segments covering a range of political topics. Todd interviewed Senator Rand Paul about his opposition to the nomination of Mike Pompeo as Secretary of State, and he talked to Senator Kirsten Gillibrand about her work on issues such as sexual harassment and assault in the military.
Other guests on the show included White House Director of Legislative Affairs Marc Short, who discussed the Trump administration's legislative agenda and plans for infrastructure spending, and former CIA Director John Brennan, who spoke about the ongoing investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
Throughout the episode, Todd engaged with his guests in spirited debates and discussions, drawing out their opinions and insights on the latest political developments. As always, Meet the Press offered a lively and engaging forum for viewers to stay up-to-date on the latest news and analysis from the world of politics.
