“Karate chopping the arm...”

You’re joking, right? There was no assault.

If I did that to a client’s employee, I would already be having a conference with HR, and quite possibly terminated.

That's the kind of Karate Chop they used on Gilligan's Island!

Good night people, conservatives must not be playing these pc games of calling incidental contact an assault. Assault is active physical harm, not an adolescent tug of war over a microphone. Get that weak victim talk out the room.

Next time they need a staffer manning the Mic who served a couple of tours with the Marines.

Watching that video replay, that young woman really handled herself well in that difficult situation. She was trying to accommodate the president while at the same time not being too overbearing.

Give that woman a round of applause.. Tough situation where she made JIM ACCOSTER LOOK LIKE THE ARROGANT POS HE IS.

It fits DC’s definition of misdemeanor battery.

Two suggestions:
1. STOP CALLING ON ACOSTA, and/or
2. End all press conferences. They’re not mandated.

Sarah, Trump, etc., ask for this chaos and abuse by recognizing Acosta. I, for one, am sick of it. We don’t need the angst.

The only reason the press attends the sessions is to grandstand. It doesn’t help their reporting, since their “reporting” is sitting at their laptops and making up sh!t. They can do that any time, and don’t need a press conference.

Look again. No assault. Are you watching Acosta's LEFT hand? I can see it.

Who’d have thought Acosta would have so many defenders here?
