Of Course CNN's Acosta Asked Trump This Question

CNN’s Jim Acosta shouted a question at President Trump Friday about his treatment of the press, asking if he would “stop calling the press the enemy of the people.”

While at an event marking six months of the GOP tax law, Trump spoke about Thursday’s shooting at a newsroom, saying the incident “shocked the conscience of our nation.”

“This attack shocked the conscience of our nation and filled our hearts with grief,” Trump said. “Journalists, like all Americans, should be free from the fear of being violently attacked while doing their job.”

He went on to say his administration “will not rest until we have done everything in our power to reduce violent crime and to protect innocent life.”

Cue Jim Acosta, who asked the president at least three times whether he’d stop criticizing the press so much.

He is rude and obnoxious. There is a way to stop him cold, pull his press credentials and deny him entrance to the White House.

A Costa you putz. Notice the President said All Americans. Can CNN stop denigrating President Trump and giving a platform of hate against him and his supporters? I didn’t think so.

Not Shocked in any sense of the word, surprised it hasn’t happened earlier than this.

I did see that the ordeal supposed ended in 2015, when do you think the CIA made initial contact and how long do you think it took for them to condition this guy to do this??

I agree, he reminds me of Rosenweasel, smug and arrogant with no substance.

And even that’s too much. I would love to see the entire front row of MSM stooges be moved to the back of the room and out the door.

rude and obnoxious...pull his press credentials....


To make it fair it should apply to all reporters equally:

Any small minded dishonest grandstanding egotistical camera hog trying to get attention is barred.

Next morning, Sarah Sanders: “Hello! Hello! Anybody out there? Loud echoes of her own voice in the empty room.

For all the crap out of this guy, he gets a raise, and promotion at CNN. There must be money being made in fake news, and obnoxity.

According to Dan Biongino, CNN was beat by The Food Network in last month’s ratings. Update that resume’, Jim.

Watch their TV careers go into the toilet if they can’t show how rude they were to Sarah on the 6 pm news report.

I would dearly like to see some of the other news outlets get a fair chance at asking questions.

Oh and the “Playboy” reporter has to go. What possible reason can there be to have a “Playboy Magazine” reporter there?

CNN is a shell of what it was years ago, to give this turkey a raise shows how low they’ve gone.

Jim Acosta is an Enemy of The People.

The People should act accordingly when they see this Quisling in public.

For that brief time of sympathy we had for that newsroom, leave it to the attention hog Acosta to blow the moment.

hahah, I knew the person screaming was from CNN! Now I know how Trump feels when he gets a ridiculous question and he says, “who are you with” and it turns out to be CNN and he’s starts saying, “I knew it, I knew it!”
