WATCH: Trump Explains What He’s Going to Do Next Time Acosta is Disruptive
Political Cowboy ^ | 11/17/2018 | Isa

Posted on 11/19/2018 8:07:20 AM PST by deandg99

We’ve come to know and love Jim Acosta’s ridiculous, narcissistic antics at White House press conferences, so it was all in all good news he was being allowed back in to make a fool of himself all over again.

Friday, a judge ruled that the White House must give the CNN reporter (I use that term loosely) his hard pass back, which granted him access to the White House grounds.

Acosta’s hard pass had been temporarily revoked after he refused to hand the microphone back to a White House intern per the President’s instructions.

"From what I see, the boss IS insisting he is the boss of his own home.

I dont know why you think otherwise."

We went through this with Obama and lambasted him for it. The White House is NOT Obama's house nor is it Trump's house. The White House is our (the peoples) house.

This is not a matter of a homeowner laying down the rules for his home. This is a matter of boorish and childish behavior by the press (one member in particular). And if CNN was to act as a responsible parent, it would have spanked him and put him in time out for a month or two. Problem solved. However, in this case, the "parent's" own inner child is also on display here.

President Trump seems to bring out the worst in people. Haha, maybe it's a gift he has. :-)

Mic on. One question, w/o follow up. Mic off. President or Press Secretary answers. Move to next urinalist. Repeat.

Totally agree, simple fix, why can't they just do this is beyond me, we don't need a blue ribbon panel or weeks of deliberation.

As a President I’d insist that the only rulings that could counter my direct orders come from no other court than the Supreme Court itself. Anything else would be counter to the separate but equal doctine upon which the Constitutional balance was designed for .

The parent in this case uses the brat to get them attention.

Penalize alll the other children and that one brat will straighten up

doesn’t Trump have better things to do than a pissing contest with a fool?

Would this include everyone in the media, or just Acosta?

And are you suggesting Trump simply ignore and not respond to the corrupt collusive media who on a daily basis attempt to undermine, compromise and lie about Trump?

What's your strategy when relentlessly lied about and attacked? Shake cower and take it?

Let him have some fun. The presidency doesn't have to be all work and no play. Even Nixon found time for some bowling and a meeting with Elvis Presley.

Like Judge Judy is wont to say...

“This isn’t an audition.
I already have the job.
‘They’ will turn off YOUR mike if seen fit”

Simple solution...

The boom works. Either that or a 6 foot 4 inch linebacker type who pries the microphone from the hands of the “fake journalist” when his time is up.

To anyone else, these press conferences are tough work. But Trump actually enjoys being tested and proving that he’s transparent.

Acosta is simply a necessary extreme of his thorough opening up to the press.

Does he get credit for this openness? Heck no. But he nonetheless is remarkable straightforward and he dishes it out to Acosta and others.

It’s the best political theater there is.

Have multiple mics all operated separately.

When his turn is up, shut it off.

Where do I got to volunteer to be the intern that passes the mic around? I don’t want to take that young woman’s job, I’ll have just one job, take the mic away from Jim Acosta. She can have all of the other reporters. It would be the greatest job I ever had, that includes all of my billets in the Marine Corps!

Just checked your posting history. You’ve posted smewhere north of 75 threads, but have only commented three times since joining Free Republic.

The verdict is in. You’re a blog pimp.
