There’s no reasoning with hate. Yeah, they own that too.

What a piece of trash. Lots of other reporters waiting patiently to ask questions. The way he wacked the woman’s hand away who was trying to do her job is disgusting. I hope she presses charges. What a bully. If CNN had an ounce of class left they would fire him. They don’t.

Are

You

Kidding

Me?

Trump treated most of the reporters terribly. Rewatch the entire thing. He interrupts, he goes off topic, he makes snide comments, he talks down to people.

Acosta has the balls to stand up to Trumpy Baby. THAT is why he was banned.

PERFECT solution.
Maybe you don't understand how being POTUS works...he can say whatever the hell he wants.

Nobody can force him to "prove" anything. He's the Executive. The Boss. The big man in charge. El Capitan.

He is sovereign in his domain...if he answers your questions, he's doing you a favor. He's not obligated to.
If he provides "proof" for things you're skeptical about, its only as a courtesy.

Gaslighting. Nothing new for Trump and his bobbleheads.

TDS? Thy name is Donald J. Trump and his followers.
Please yourself, he was rude to the wh aide the, other reporters waiting to ask questions as well. He was rude as crap and it wasn't the first time either.

I watched several times very closely. Not only was he rude, selfish and unfair to the other reporters, but he clearly attacked the staffer. He should never be allowed in a press conference again.

As far as I'm concerned Acosta's citizenship should be suspended. He is a subversive and in violation of the Sedition Act .

Acosta got suspended for striking the intern to keep her from doing her job. No denying it, it's on video. The suspension is appropriate.

You kids better move past your authoritarian wet dreams and come on back to Earth. While he can clearly say whatever he wants, we can also call him to task for it because he answers to us. He holds press conferences because he answers to us. His weekly address is for us. He is in charge because he was, as far as we know, elected by the people. And, as long as we pay for his golf trips, his racist machinations, his salary and feed, clothe, house and provide the best healthcare in the world to him and his two hostages, he serves us.
