Why don't they mention that part of the news clip???

These boobs don't have the brains god gave them. Sold them to buy MAGA caps.

The point being is that along the border -- there aren't hordes of people crossing.

Border patrol has recorded a drastic drop in arrrests in the last two years. And a significant change in who is crossing illegally -- women and children....lots of unaccompanied children.

You can choose to ignore the facts and try to bring down Acosta....but you do little to give your argument integrity by doing so.

That's like saying a convenience store that has been robbed five times isn't a problem b/c I went one day and no one robbed it when I was there.
It doesn't have to happen every minuet of everyday for there to be a problem. The brain that can't reason that out isn't likely capable of much but maybe breathing. Mouth breathing at that.

^Don’t worry if you don’t get it.
Cmon Cali, “Dear Diary” is a Jim Acosta meme. It’s intellectually lazy to just steal it like that. And it just wasn’t funny.

The meme I posted is accurate, though. And, yes, it amused me.

Also, I admit some of the Acosta Dear Diary memes are hilarious.

So, because there just happens to be no one crossing while Acosta is standing there, in broad daylight no less, means no one is trying to cross the other 2,000 miles of border? That’s a brilliant point there, BS. Color me befuddled.

"CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta wants America to know there’s no national emergency on the border, no need for a wall. So he’s flown down to the border to report live from the scene, and he says there’s no issue.
Just one thing: He’s standing next to the steel slats President Donald Trump wants Congress to fund elsewhere on the border."


Just proved walls work. Thank you Acosta. LOL
Jim Acosta loved him some Jim Acosta and will find a way to make this story about him. Oh wait, he already did.

Why would your natural state be my concern?

And? Just because a childish, compulsive liar says his personal obsession is the only solution to a problem doesn't make it so.

It was a campaign promise. People voted for him for this. Campaign promises should be personal obsessions.
