CNN’s Acosta: Advisers Trying to Talk ‘Insane’ Trump ‘off the Ledge’
Breitbart ^ | 06/04/2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 06/04/2021 5:56:57 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

CNN’s Jim Acosta said Thursday on “OutFront” that “insane” former President Donald Trump thought there was “some chance that he could somehow be reinstated as president.”

Anchor Erin Burnett said, “Former President Donald Trump has been asking advisers if he could reassume the presidency this year, despite losing the election to Joe Biden. A well-placed source sells our Jim Acosta tonight that President Trump has been hearing the far-fetched suggestions from conservative commentators and allies, and has internalized that and asked others, what do you think of this theory?”

Democrats didn't call it insane when California considered secession in 2017 because Donald Trump was sworn in as President.

Acosta is a has been. He’s still trying to hang on to derogatory statements about President Trump to salvage his job. He has no credibility left.

Jim Acosta so needs to go to somewhere very hot and evil. He has worked so hard for his reward. It would be racist to deny him his desire.

The media thinks up the craziest sit Trump could say and then run stories about him actually saying it. Of all the media Trump’s small inner circle would talk to, CNN ain’t one.

Acosta probably dreamt this up. Thinks it was “anonymous reports” from “Trump insiders”.

He’s hoping to get some traction with this, before CNN goes bankrupt.

One thing is certain about this story . . . Acosta has NO “well-placed” source for this information. If the “source” is even a Republican, it is likely from a pedophile protector in the group Lincoln Project, or other similar anti-conservative organization.

If Trump wasn’t thinking this, isn’t CNN a little bit worried that they are giving Trump and Trump-team ideas?

Eight Commandments of the Liberal Left recast from Irving Janis (Yale) groupthink behaviors:

I Thou shalt create an illusion of invulnerability shared by most members to foster excessive optimism and encourage extreme risks taking

II Thou shall not allow any member to question the group’s inherent morality, instead members shall be encouraged to ignore the ethical or moral consequences of their decisions

III Thou shalt promote collective efforts to rationalize in order to discount warnings, or other information that might lead members to reconsider their assumptions before they recommit themselves to their assumptions

IV Thou shalt reinforce stereotyped views of enemy leaders as too evil to warrant genuine attempts to negotiate, or as too weak and stupid to counter whatever risky attempts are made to defeat their purpose

V Thou shalt self-censor any deviation from the apparent group consensus, inclining each member to minimize the importance of their doubts and counterarguments

VI Thou shalt create and maintain a shared illusion of unanimity concerning judgement conforming to the majority view

VII Thou shalt apply direct pressure on any member who expresses strong arguments against any of the group’s stereotypes, illusions, or commitments, making clear that this type of dissent is contrary to what is expected of all loyal members

VIII Thou shalt appoint mind guards to protect the group from adverse information that might shatter their shared complacency about the effectiveness and morality of their decisions.

If someone told me I could be President by August, I would ask to hear their reasoning for how that could happen. That’s not insane. It is called formation gathering. Smart people do it all the time.

Oh Jimmy must be bored, I wouldn’t be surprised if Acosta campaigned for Trump in 2024 just so he could be in the spotlight again.

They seem to have some concern here.
