Jim Acosta booed at border after asking Trump to apologize for Jan. 6

CNN's Jim Acosta was booed by a crowd gathered at the southern border during former President Trump's visit there on Wednesday after he asked Trump to apologize for the Jan. 6 insurrection. 

"Will you apologize about Jan. 6?" Acosta shouted to Trump after the former president concluded his speech near a section of border wall. 

"No!" several people in the crowd, made up of mostly Republican members of Congress and staffers, shouted back at Acosta. Some in the crowd began to boo the White House reporter-turned-weekend anchor. 

After the crowd shouted Acosta down, Trump looked in the anchor's direction, smirked and gave a thumbs-up. 

"At border event with Trump and Abbott I asked Trump if he’s going to apologize for January 6. He did not respond," Acosta tweeted minutes later. "Crowd of mostly GOP members and staff booed."

An instant after President Trump apologized for the Jan 06 debacle the DoJ would start proceedings against him because he “admitted responsibility.’

I’m surprised 20 or 30 Trumpers weren’t waiting on him in the parking lot after the rally....if anybody needs a little correction its that weasel.

He’s like an Adam Schiff, stupid and disliked and totally unaware of both.

I’m quite surprised that someone hasn’t already given Acosta the Chuck Norris flying kick to the face he so richly deserves.

If it ever happens I so hope it gets on video. I’d watch that for HOURS!!!

...He did not respond

True to form Acosta lied. Trump gave him the Thumbs down. The kind of response that POS deserved.

Geraldo Rivera once had a chair slammed across his face . I watched that one many times before I became tired of it.

I can’t imagine many folks that simply need a good knockout punch.

Acosta is one…

I remember having a mod for the video game DooM that turned all of the monsters into Jerry Rivers. Another one made them into Bill Clinton.

Both were equally amusing.

Apologize for taking pictures with the statues and sleeping under big iconic paintings? Rather than tearing them down and spray-painting them all?

Yeah, that’s real “rioting”.

Meanwhile your beloved masters IN Congress voted to tear down those statues themselves.

Never mind the Endless Riots involving all of the above + arson.

Wrong crowd there to tossing firebombs at Trump, Jim Acosta.

Still an ornament to your “profession”. And not a very attractive one, either.

The only place I want to see Jima Acosta’s and Brian Stelter’s faces is on a urinal cake.

Since the misbehavior was false-flag by ANTIFA/Occupy types, there is no need for an apology.

That crowd had to have been well vetted, to deny false-flag disruptors and potential assassins access.
