Jim Acosta Grills Trump Spox on ‘White Power’ Rally Shouts
Mediaite ^ | 08/24/2015 | Ken Meyer

Posted on 08/24/2015 12:01:56 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Jim Acosta spoke with Donald Trump‘s campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski about recent developments that have occurred after the 2016 candidate’s statements on illegal immigration. After Lewandowski talked about the severity of the problem, Acosta then decided to grill him about whether there was any concern if Trump’s rhetoric might hurt anyone if it “spiral[s] out of control.”

Acosta brought up how two men in Boston attacked a homeless Mexican while quoting Trump’s position, and also a man who reportedly shouted “white power” during his speech in Alabama last week.

Lewandowski’s response seemed to echo Trump’s, saying that he does not condone violence, and that the people attending the rally were there because they were proud Americans who were receptive to the “Make America Great Again” motto.

“We would never condone violence. If that’s what happened in Boston, by no means would that be acceptable in nature,” Lewandowski said. “We should not be ashamed to be Americans. We should be proud of our heritage and continue to be the greatest country in the world.”

Trump needs to ask Jim Acosta and the other jack booted fascists in journalism today how much they think free expression should be limited in this country in order to prevent things from 'spiraling out of control', whatever the hell that means.

This is no time for Trumps people to start playing by LSM rules. Call them out. It was a plant. Pathetic attempt to paint Trump supporters as racists. So obvious.

What does “Jim” Acosta say about illegal aliens terrorizing Kris Kobach, Ann Coulter, Steve King and just about every other anti-illegal immigration politician?

All of that has happened - including terrorizing them at their personal homes - in a clearly coordinated set of attacks.

Oddly that doesn’t ever seem to be a problem for people like Sr. Acosta.

On second thought, not shingles. Bush still causes those.
