Trump was insanely rude - and not only to Jim Acosta. He was rude to other reporters too, for no reason.
Donald Trump Viciously Attacks CNN Reporter Jim Acosta | TMZ.com
Jim Acosta asked him a perfectly reasonable question. Trump is calling a rag tag group of homeless people without money an invasion, and showing ads with people scaling fences that have nothing to with this group. Not only is it misleading, it's a lie. It's also a lie that he send in the US military to protect our borders because are borders are not threatened by this, and the US military cannot do a single damn thing.
The truth is any question Trump does not like he shuts them down and treats them rudely. Yamiche Alcindor from PBS asked a question about when he called himself a "nationalist" at a rally, and then asked if this seems to embolden white nationalists he instead shut her down claiming this was a racist question. WTF? This is an important question.
This is a press conference. The press has the legal right to ask him any question they would like. It's called Freedom Of Press. It's what makes our country great. He cannot continue to duck questions. He has to answer these questions. This is why Trump is the most unpopular president of our lifetime.
This is disgusting and vile.
I want to say we need to remove him from office as quickly as possible. However, no, I want him to stay another term. He is riding on Obama's wave and he is slowly destroying it with his silly trade wars. I want him in the oval office when the ship starts sinking.
