Donald Trump Jr. responded Tuesday morning to Chuck Todd by criticizing the NBC host for not asking Sen. Bernie Sanders about an FBI investigation involving his wife during a recent interview.

Todd had tweeted that his calls for decency in politics do not equal media bias. (RELATED: Watch Chuck Todd Ask Bernie Sanders Zero Questions About Being Under FBI Investigation)

“I would say the saddest evidence of bias was from you not asking Bernie [Sanders] about the FBI bank fraud investigation. Ponder that!!! #fakenews,” Trump Jr. tweeted Tuesday. (RELATED: Donald Trump Jr. Trolls Democrats After They Lose In Georgia)

In a recent “Meet the Press” interview, Todd failed to ask Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders about how he and Jane Sanders are the subject of a FBI investigation into allegations of bank fraud from when Sanders wife was the president of Burlington College.

“Saddest reactions I’ve received are those folks who mistake calls for decency in our discourse as some sort of evidence of bias. Ponder that,” the “Meet The Press” host tweeted Sunday, following multiple tweets by the president against the “Fake and Fraudulent News Media.”
