JOURNALIST Chuck Todd is leaving NBC News after 18 years on the network – and he spent a majority of them feuding with President Donald Trump.

The former Meet the Press moderator announced he’s exiting the network with a memo to his colleagues on Friday.

“There’s never a perfect time to leave a place that’s been a professional home for so long, but I’m pretty excited about a few new projects that are on the cusp of going from ‘pie in the sky’ to ‘near reality,’” Todd said.

“So I’m grateful for the chance to get a jump start on my next chapter during this important moment.”

Todd is taking his podcast, ChuckToddCast, with him and teased a “new home” for it.

Friday is the newscaster’s last day on the job.

Todd joined NBC in 2007 as the political director before becoming the chief White House correspondent a year later.

The political journalist served as the moderator for Meet The Press for nine years.

Todd entered a feud with Trump while hosting the Sunday public affairs morning program, which features interviews with world leaders.

Trump aired his grievances with Todd at a 2018 rally.

“It’s 1999, I’m on Meet the Press, a show now headed by sleepy eyes Chuck Todd,” Trump said.

“He’s a sleeping son of a b***h. I’ll tell you.”

The journalist responded to the tirade with a post making light of the insult.

“Don’t miss @MeetThePress tomorrow!” he wrote on X.

“I know folks may be tired in the morning due to springing forward, so set those clocks and DVRs now before your eyes get too sleepy.”

Trump continuously called Todd “sleepy” throughout his campaign and first presidency.

Todd’s exit comes as mainstream TV networks including CNN and CBS News have started major overhauls of their programs in the wake of the election.

Longtime anchor Norah O’Donnell left CBS News last Friday after she first announced her exit last summer.

CNN anchor Jim Acosta moved on from the network on Tuesday, sparking Trump to celebrate the news on Truth Social.

Despite his farewell, Todd promised he’ll continue to share his reporting and perspective on his podcast.

“The media has a lot of work to do to win back the trust of viewers/listeners/readers and I’m convinced the best place to start is from the bottom up,” Todd said.

“At my core, I’m an entrepreneur — I spent my first 15 years professionally working for the company that started the political newsletter craze that dominates today.

“And this is a ripe moment.”

NBC said in a statement, “We’re grateful for Chuck’s many contributions to our political coverage during his nearly two-decade career at NBC News and for his deep commitment to Meet the Press and its enduring legacy.

“We wish him all the best in his next endeavors.”
