I missed this encounter! Darn it!
But on Fox, even Chris Wallace said Acosta should be ashamed of how he behaved....that he was a disgrace.
So it must have been bad for Acosta and good for the President.
If anybody finds a video on youtube of this encounter, please ping me with that info. I will be looking too.

It needs to be cleaned up, which means new rules and replacing many of them to send a message.
It's become a zoo.
[[The press conferences and White House press briefings are out of control. The media are acting like high school students who are disrespectful and unhinged.]]
I really wish the president would start a press conference by stating something along the lines of “We will be respectful in our questions, and only one question per person- If you violate these rules, and refuse to be respectful, you will be escorted out of the room. There are a lot of folks here, and we need to hear from as many as possible, so only one question per person. If that is not ok with you, too bad- You’re not in control of these conferences- We set the rules- either abide by them or be escorted out- You are welcome as long as you can be respectful”
Me, too. Or at least walk out of the press briefing in response to Acosta and Ryan's lack of decorum. That makes the other reporters lose their chance......and they might start putting the brakes on these two jackasses.
It made me LIVID..........
Someone needs to just smash that insolent, graceless POS.
Trump should have had his ars removed and pull his press pass. I would have done that in one hot second, Trump is too easy on acts of disrespect.
POTUS was incredibly calm and restrained in this. Answered every question and when Acosta didn’t like the answer, he kept interrupting and asking more questions. Apparently this little snot-nosed dweeb thought it was a 1-on-1 interview where he could just pepper POTUS with questions non-stop as long as he wanted.
What a complete and utter joke.
THANKS so much for that video. I am so sorry I didn’t see it when it happened....I would have been standing up and cheering!
Thanks again for the videos. LOVE MY PRESIDENT!
Yes, thank you so much!!!!!!
He is welcome at CNN with open arms..?
Trump should have these assholes physically ejected
from the room.
Yep, that’s been juvenile Jim’s MO for quite some time.
I really think that’s why POTUS hasn’t jerked his press creds, he shoots the kid down for all to see.
Jimbo that is.
“Pacifiers for Acosta”, mail to CNN.
People hate them. Why would he get rid of them? They are a foil, and 45 needs that.
I think losing the House may be the best thing that ever happened to us. Better than getting hijacked by 3 or fewer swing R’s in the House.
To be sure, a lot of those House members will end up having to vote 45’s way if they want to stay elected.
He’s not stupid. He’s got a bridle in Jim Acosta’s mouth and he’s riding him like a rented mule.
You Tube video of it if not already posted:

How can Acosta get away with assaulting that aide? He grabbed her arm while defying protocol. It was a truly bizarre thing to watch. It was uncontrolled compulsive actions on the part of Acosta. He should not be anywhere near the White House, much less that close to the president.
I agree, he’s a psycho that should be barred from the WH and shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near President Trump.
