His hand most definitely comes down to her arm.
Watch again.
There is a point he shoved her arm down on the inside of her elblow joint forcing her arm to bend and moving it away from “his precious” whitehouse mic which he uses to demand that the President confess to the crimes he fantasies about him being guilty of. He thinly veils the repeated denands to confess as questions. This a-hole would be a grand inquisitor if only he had lived in Salem.
I think it is a clear case of assault and she needs to have him charged
If you don’t have anything bad to say about a liberal then don’t say anything at all.
What goes through your mind?
After his chopping block/push, one might almost be expecting to see him follow through with some additional kind of strike (with his hand, arm, knee, or foot) on the poor young woman, who was just trying to do her mic-passing White House intern job:
He should be called for a "personal foul", and severely penalized (banned for life).
By the Alinsky rule book, she should show up at work tomorrow wearing a Teddy Kennedy Chappaquiddick Model neck brace.
Totally agree:
After the Zucker “We have your back!” statement, I believe that CNN —all of CNN— should be banned from WH events and pressers.
He was trying to ask extra questions when Trump had already moved on to the next reporter and the young woman was, rightfully, trying to take the mic from him and Acosta acted like the mic was his ring and he was Gollum because, as with all of his questions, none of it had to do with getting an answer, at all, they are all performance art where he makes TV “moments” for his network who are shooting the conferences with their cameras. Does any fall for this garbage anymore?
LOL -there is plenty to say bad about Acosta - he is a Leftist scumbag who doesn’t deserve press credentials to visit the local animal shelter... But lets be sure we are hammering him with real offenses, not drivel...
“didn’t shove her or hit her in any way..”
Bullshit. He hit her arm and push it ( with force ) down.
Threw her off balance too
Watch the video just watching her lower body and legs and you can clearly see he pushed her arm down forcefully.
Post 43
Acosta down stroke.
Also, this isn’t funny.
What Acosta did?
That is EXACTLY the type of act which, used in a divorce, paints the soon-to-be ex-husband as a violent, sick wife beater.
THAT act would be used to influence custody, visitation:
It might require him to take parenting classes, undergo counseling, etc.
THAT type of act ruins a man’s life on a VERY regular basis these days.
I don’t understand why, for a beltway elite, suddenly the rules have to be totally different.
The most shocking part of this is that conservatives HERE eagerly strike Fairness Poses, refusing to see the same video that I did:
No, there was no contact, no, she hit HIS arm...
It’s really amazing.
10 TIMES? THEN MAYBE YOU NEED NEW GLASSES. CLEARLY SHE REACHES FOR THE MIC AND WHEN SHE HAD IT IN HER HAND HE PULLS THE MIC AWAY AND FORCEFULLY MOVES HIS ARM DOWN!
REALLY, YOU NEED TO HAVE YOUR EYES CHECKED
“Watch the video just watching her lower body and legs and you can clearly see he pushed her arm down forcefully.”
Exactly, you can see her body buckle from the force of his pushing her arm down,
For those who don’t want to call it assault and battery
maybe they could bring themselves to say that he manhandled her?
