Indeed. Very embarrassing for trump and his city-data supporters, just days after Trumpers here created a thread to celebrate his booting from the WH.

Donald Trump considers Jim Acosta to be one of his biggest enemies, and Donald was just clobbered by CNN and Acosta.

I guess the only recourse may be to end briefings.
Civility starts at the top.

No he's not. He's doing the exact job he was paid to do.
When Trump is asked a rough direct question he just doesn't answer it. He Throws out a bunch of word salad that makes no sense and isn't even directly related to the subject.
Acosta is very good at not accepting BS from politicians and knows how to ask the same question in different ways until he gets a clear answer.
This methodology totally disarms Trump and he doesn't know how to deal with it. He's pinned into a corner by Acosta and he lashes out in juvenile anger.

This is classic Trump.

If the Trumplicans don't see it, it's only because they don't want to see it and have used the same Trumpian principles here in this very forum.

They say, "Fake News!!!!!!"
We say, "Prove it."
The invariable response is, "Obama, Clinton" and then the Crickets chirp.

lol

"Let's get back to work!" says Jim Acosta.

Yeah, you should worry.

And although in years past, plaintiffs' attorneys had filed a case, looked at the judge, and voluntarily dismissed it only to refile over and over again until they got a judge they wanted, but the Clerk of the Court has pretty much put a stop to that practice nowadays.

Anyway, what kind of idiot would "judge shop" by choosing a judge hand-picked by the President they are suing?

Think before you post, people.

Alex Jones is not a news organisation. He's a conspiracy theory generator.



All he does is make up lies. Plus he's mentally deranged.
