Donald Trump Rips Into CNN's Jim Acosta:

[2MuchMark]

President Donald Trump tore into CNN’s Jim Acosta during a press conference in the White House on Wednesday, attacking the reporter as a “rude, terrible person.”

Acosta had refused to sit down after asking the president about a racist, anti-immigration ad his re-election campaign had paid for and promoted ahead of the midterm elections on Tuesday.

A White House aide tried to grab the microphone from Acosta, but the CNN reporter refused to give it up, infuriating the president.

Trumps more unhinged than the front door of a crack house after a police raid.

Just listened to Chris Wallace (who is no fan of Pres. Trump) speaking on this.

He said in his entire decades of reporting he had never seen anything as disgraceful as Acosta today.
Said Acosta embarrassed himself.

I watched the whole thing as it happened and agree with Wallace 100 percent on this.

Trump looked completely defeated in that press conference. Refreshing to see

Obviously Chris Wallace has never read any of your posts.

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.

Funny how Chump ,one of the rudest persons out there, calls someone else rude!


It's right up there with his foreigner wife and her anti bullying

Trump is a sore loser 2bit 73 year old morbidly obese conman

I think Trump is great. How am I "defending" him? LOL! It's a message board for fuck's sake.
You never say much of anything in any discussion except to attack other people for their opinions.
How about YOU give your opinion of what Acosta did? Start by imagining that a Fox News reporter repeatedly did this to Pres. Obama (never happened in real life by the way).

Really? I disagree, here's why:

All Trump had to do was answer Acosta's question. He could have "Jim: X and Y and this and that and whatever" to answer the question but he didn't. He looked like he was backed into the corner and could not answer the question. IF that were true he could have said "Jim, I can't answer you on that right now but ask me again later" or something, but he didn't.

And seriously, Trump is overplaying this whole caravan thing.

I dislike Fox News as you know, but Chris Wallace has a good long history so I don't dislike him. Same for Shep Smith. But in this case, I'm betting Wallace is just doing what he was told to do by someone higher up.

[Robbie]

You didn't watch it did you? Acosta TOLD the President what to think. Trump told him... I disagree. There was no question. And then Acosta wouldn't stop shouting over the next person. Trump finally got tired of it and let him have it.
You should really be more informed by facts instead of fake news you read.
Go to YouTube and watch the whole thing for yourself.

Except Trump had already answered several questions from that fake news clown. Acosta was being combative. Here is the video:



Just look how Acosta was abusive to the woman trying to take the microphone. What a scum bag

Acosta accosted an intern and should be punsihed.

Acosta was standing there asking a question.

Accost: approach and address (someone) boldly or aggressively.

The intern accosted Acosta.

That's false, Mark. It was simply zoomed in. It was NOT sped up or "frames added". So dumb.

Here is the proof it wasn't "doctored"

It's fascinating how the left gets duped into believing the lying fake MSM.

I'm sorry, but now how you spin this Acosta was asking a question, and the President was insanely rude and answered with "How about you run CNN and I'll run the country".

How about answering the question?

Answer the god damn question. Is this an invasion? No, course it's not. They aren't invading the country. They are not armed. They aren't going to jumping fences. They aren't going to be throwing rocks at anyone. They are going to stand in line and fill out a form.

The truth is the President lies. He lies about everything. And when he holds a press conference he doesn't want to answer the questions. It wasn't only one reporter who got treated like this; It was three. This entire administration has been completely hostile to the press since before Donald was elected - calling the press "fake news".

It's not like CNN is going to stop reporting just because it can't get into the White House.

They banned him lol

Hi Rochard! I do appreciate your attempt at an intelligent response.

1) Trump DID answer the question, and then Acosta wanted to keep asking more. His turn was over, but like a bratty little kid, he refused to let go of the mic and sit down.

2) The caravan has already been violent with the police in Mexico. They are literally waving foreign flags demanding to get past our border. It could be considered an invasion.

3) Trump never called the media fake news. he called the lying, dishonest media fake news, not the entire media- just the ones who lie and mislead the public.

4) CNN can still get into the white house- just not Jim Acosta. They have other "journalists."

The first thing about that article on Huffington Post that had something presented as a fact, which i doubted it was a fact, is this sentence:

Acosta had refused to sit down after asking the president about a racist, anti-immigration ad his re-election campaign had paid for and promoted ahead of the midterm elections on Tuesday.

I have not seen the ad, but this news site is writing that the ad is racist as a fact. So i decided to fact check this before going on.

This is the ad in question:
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/...28445386539008

What does this ad show? It is about an illegal immigrant who committed murder. Then it shows other illegal immigrants going towards the border.
That's it.

This ad is, by definition, not racist in any way or form. Fact. Huffington Post classifying this ad as racist is therefore completely false. It is a lie, presented as a fact: They're deliberately fooling their readers into believing this lie.

Does the ad imply that with illegal mass immigration the possibility of more murderers will rise? Yes, and sure you could argue if that's really the case. But another fact is that a way higher percentage of illegals as opposed to legal immigrants will end up being criminals, even if it is just out of desperation.
Look at the mass illegal immigration to Europe: Is it racist to point out the FACT that these flows of illegal immigrants had their share of ISIS murderers among them that have cost lives across Europe in atrocious terror attacks? Are facts racist?

Sure, these people are no Muslim loons who have been brainwashed with hate and are out for revenge because our western governments cannot help themselves to invade the middle east all the time. But you do have crazy gangs there, who will also use immigration flows like this to infiltrate the US just like ISIS did here in Europe.

Anyway, the ad itself debunks the lie that it is racist.
But there is another claim in the 'fact' by huffington post: about a racist, anti-immigration ad

This is isn't about immigration. Because just immigration is also known as LEGAL immigration.
This ad is solely about ILLEGAL immigration. Is it racist to be against something, that has also been against the law for as long as we live?

So they lied about the ad being racist, and they lied about the ad being anti-immigration.

When this news site cannot be truthful merely two sentences into the story - sorry, but i'm not reading any other stories on there ever again, nor am i going to take that site seriously. I just proved it spreads fake news.
