He has great instincts about human nature. But after reading his books and knowing Alinsky he has mastered the “control of the masses”. It could be dangerous in the wrong hands.

He is really getting hit hard on FOX. Flake was given many many nick names. He made an absolute fool of himself and they are making sure he knows it.

was the crash triggered by an overload of inquiries? - or a hacker?

I watched the video of the incident earlier this evening.

The absolute rudeness of Acosta asking a question like that when the press was there to observe Trump and another president.

A no class jerk.

He’s no doubt hiding something and is angry that someone is holding him accountable Bad behavior is sometimes guilty behavior.

Jim Acosta. He was asked to leave the room recently right? Press members can be removed, or banned right?

I heard his questioning, and it was purely meant to play to a crowd and was pure “rude”.

To: SMGFan; All

It’s back up this morning.

https://gop.com/the-highly-anticipated-2017-fake-news-awards/

(details are at the link, here’s summary)

1. The New York Times’ Paul Krugman claimed on the day of President Trump’s historic, landslide victory that the economy would never recover.

2. ABC News’ Brian Ross CHOKES and sends markets in a downward spiral with false report.

3. CNN FALSELY reported that candidate Donald Trump and his son Donald J. Trump, Jr. had access to hacked documents from WikiLeaks.

4. TIME FALSELY reported that President Trump removed a bust of Martin Luther King, Jr. from the Oval Office.

5. Washington Post FALSELY reported the President’s massive sold-out rally in Pensacola, Florida was empty. Dishonest reporter showed picture of empty arena HOURS before crowd started pouring in.

6. CNN FALSELY edited a video to make it appear President Trump defiantly overfed fish during a visit with the Japanese prime minister. Japanese prime minister actually led the way with the feeding.

7. CNN FALSELY reported about Anthony Scaramucci’s meeting with a Russian, but retracted it due to a “significant breakdown in process.”

8. Newsweek FALSELY reported that Polish First Lady Agata Kornhauser-Duda did not shake President Trump’s hand.

9. CNN FALSELY reported that former FBI Director James Comey would dispute President Trump’s claim that he was told he is not under investigation.

10. The New York Times FALSELY claimed on the front page that the Trump administration had hidden a climate report.

11. And last, but not least: “RUSSIA COLLUSION!” Russian collusion is perhaps the greatest hoax perpetrated on the American people. THERE IS NO COLLUSION!

While the media spent 90% of the time focused on negative coverage or fake news, the President has been getting results:

1. The economy has created nearly 2 million jobs and gained over $8 trillion in wealth since the President’s inauguration.

2. African Americans and Hispanics are enjoying the lowest unemployment rate in recorded history.

3. The President signed historic tax cuts and relief for hardworking Americans not seen since President Reagan.

4. President Trump’s plan to cut regulations has exceeded “2 out for every 1 in” mandate, issuing 22 deregulatory actions for every one new regulatory action.

5. The President has unleashed an American energy boom by ending Obama-era regulations, approving the Keystone pipeline, auctioning off millions of new acres for energy exploration, and opening up ANWR.

6. ISIS is in retreat, having been crushed in Iraq and Syria.

7. President Trump followed through on his promise to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of the State of Israel and instructed the State Department to begin to relocate the Embassy.

8. With President Trump’s encouragement, more member nations are paying their fair share for the common defense in the NATO alliance.

9. Signed the Veterans Accountability and Whistleblower Protection Act to allow senior officials in the VA to fire failing employees and establishes safeguards to protect whistleblowers.

10. President Trump kept his promise and appointed Associate Justice Neil Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Big mistake. He should have added the number of follow up news stories that mentioned the fake news winners. Also the questions generated by the fake news stories.

Yep,I bet Acosta was looking forward to being on the top of the list.
He is a attention whore,after all.
Probably,had his rebuttals already written down and ready to go.
