To Grey Friar: He attended school in Switzerland so he knows english as a language. Using a interpreter is a political ploy...to give the non speaker a chance to regulate their thoughts...

My thanks to you both. I knew he studied in Switzerland, but was unsure if he learned any English while there. And if so, what his fluency level is. Sort of like my “fluency” in German from studying it in college and then not using it until getting assigned to Germany 6 years later. I had forgotten a lot.

Complete lack of decorum.
Just because you CAN do something doesn’t mean you SHOULD, Jim.

Here's what he REALLY said....He's now trying to cover for his initial hot mic statement as follows:
“CNN’s Jim Acosta caught on hot mic justifying shouting questions at Trump-Kim summit: “Hey if they're not going to let me in the f*cking meeting, that's what happens... That's the way it goes, baby.” - Wired Sources

Yep, that little weasel said that and it’s all the more reason to boot his butt out of the WH Press Corps.

Trump lives rent free in Acosta’s tiny pea brain ...
To: jazusamo
How was it even possible that Trump arranged for Kim to be in such a situation... Trump has been pretty smart, but that wasn’t.

Very good question and it wasn’t smart at all, especially after the inappropriate actions of Acosta in the past.
Acosta’s outbursts must be ended now or PDJT and Sarah Sanders will be as much at fault as the CNN jerk.

Trump needs to be humbler, for parading Kim before the press isn’t going to work well for a while if ever.

RE: Trump's awkward comment
On Laura Ingraham’s show, Raymond Arroyo played this clip that will not have made major news. The diplomats were finishing a photo session immediately before the fancy dinner was to start. The President asked (paraphrasing) are we all through with the pictures? We look nice and thin, right? Kim's face fell, almost a sneer, and the camera went right to him. Clearly, Kim needed no translator. However, it was proof he understood well what was said, and that could be valuable intel.

Clearly, Kim needed no translator. I thought he understood some English.
