I feel the same way, Acosta was very rude. Its the way he went about it. He needs to be respectful even if you don't like the guy. Cnn needs to get rid of him.
Bullshit. He wasn't rude at all. Trump was deflecting and monologuing to wear Acosta down and then tell him that he'd run over time for his question. Acosta just persisted in asking the question. Look at the damn video!

I don't respect Trump I can't stand the guy. I just call out bias when i see it, Trump and treatment of women is terrible, other than Stormy Daniels, she used him just as much as he used her, most of the media is liberal so they attack conservatives on a regular basis. They claim to be impartial, nothing can be farther from the truth, most people are blinded by their own views and follow along like sheep. Don Lemon is the worst, he calls himself a reporter/journalist, he's neither, he's a commentator every night he opens his show with a 10 minute tirade against Trump, no he's not biased, never said a bad word about Hillary, even though she's just as corrupt if not more than Trump.
Clearly, all the anchors at CNN hates Trump. But what do you expect when Trump always call them "Fake News".

If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

Good. Acosta's a grandstanding asshole.
Agreed.

The situation started out very civil too, despite Acosta having no interest in election, or relevant questions. Hos opening with 'I'd like to challenge you' set the tone.
Trump was very decent in responding to the "Invasion", and "immigrants" topics, with saying he just had a difference of opinion.

But Acosta resisting a WH aide over a microphone, refusing to surrender it, and sit down so that others could ask questions too was uncalled for.
Trump took a great deal of time out to answer questions. He showed Acosta a great deal of time and patience, allowing Jim to ask many questions.

CNN is notorious for 'losing a satellite feed' when a guest says something they don't like to hear. Trump should allow Acosta to remain, but have a special Microphone that he can shut off at will.
Now back to your regular programming of Fake Fox & Friends

Fox News Channel officials have said they “do not condone” the actions of its host Sean Hannity when he spoke from the stage of U.S. President Donald Trump’s final midterm election rally on Monday night.
But officials stopped short of condemning the act.

I guess you can't tell the difference. Trump told him to stop and he continued to yell at him and when the lady tried to take the microphone from him he kept moving away. That's rude. When you don'y know when to stop its rude. When you touch the microphone lady, that is rude.

Has nothing to do with the episode of Acosta being rude.

C'mon. Watch the video. He was turning away from the aide, who was trying to take the mike.

He asked Trump a couple of straight-up questions. Trump deflected them and monologued in order to eat up Acosta's time. Acosta re-asked the question. Other reporters had their hands up to ask their questions as well. Then the aide came to take the mike. He made no attempt to touch the aide. He was just turning away and backing a little to keep the mike.

He also wasn't yelling.

It was clearly part of a game where Trump ducked the questions and then Acosta would be made to surrender the mile because he was "out of time". But Acosta dug in and kept the mike. I would have as well. There's no fucking way Acosta should be banned. He was just trying to do his job.

Just watch the damn video!

For starter:

Adolf Hitler speech in Munich at the Hofbräuhaus, August 15, 1920. From Vierteljahrshefte für Zeitgeschichte, 16. Jahrg., 4. H. (Oct., 1968), pp. 390-420.
OIC, Hitler is Gospel Truth to You!!

Mr Trump is an Alpha male. He is not liberal-minded social justice warrior. Those are snowflakes. Get your definitions right.
Correction: Trump acts like an Alpha male in public when he's on a podium. In private, he is impressed and submissive to leaders like Putin, and Kim Jong Un. If he were a dog, he would bark loudly at smaller dogs, but would roll over and present his underbelly to anything bigger than a Corgi.

They are not supposed to hate, when you hate someone its hard to be objective and fair . The press coverage of him is 95% negative. I don't like the man but he has done quite a few good things for the country. It would be nice if they reported on it once in awhile instead of talking about the same stories all the time. They only do it because being negative towards the president gets them their highest ratings, it has nothing to do with "Facts First". They have no credibility when their first priority is ratings

I've seen the video several times, most stations carried it. Acosta in my opinion was rude, Cnn had other white house correspondents that had much more class than Acosta like John King. You appear to be excited as you're language increased from: "bullshit" and "watch the damn video" to "there's no fucking way". They did the right thing by banning him.

At the same question period look at this idiot Trump when this journalist asks him a question:

Trump to PBS reporter: Such a racist question
Newsroom

Trump interrupted a PBS reporter at a news conference, defensively stating several times that her question was "racist" and "insulting," when she tried to clarify why he called himself a nationalist on the campaign trail:

https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics...s-racist-question-april-ryan-newsroom-vpx.cnn

Was this question "RACIST"?????

Let us hear the Right wingers responses to this question!!
HAHAHAHA....kinda like this?https://www.washingtonpost.com/worl...ls-out-heckler-your-racism-has-no-place-here/

Bet you're gonna tell me you're not a Liberal next, right?

Like what kind of tiki torches are best for marching?
Where to plant the snipers?

Trump called himself a nationalist.
Its fair to ask how that's not a white nationalist.

You guys are just going to be stuck with Fox, the US Pravda.
Most of the world is "Nationalist". Do you stand for your "NATIONAL" anthem or your "GLOBAL" anthem? If you understand what "GLOBAL" means, you'll see why Trump says he is a "Nationalist".

If you dont understand what the term means, google NWO New World Order and the Georgia Guide stones. It will all make sense to people who take politics at face value and believe EVERYTHING a politician says with the help of mass media! SMH.

While you're at it, find out who owns and/or controls main stream media. It will all make sense as to why every time Trump farts, it gets reported to the world as "abnormal" or "Racist"! LOL

Boy, cant believe how dense most of you political wanna-be's are.....LMAO!

Sure, Trump is a Nationalist, and a bit of a socialist also.

Or, if you like, refer to "Partito Nationalize Fascista"

Yes, patriotism is putting your country first and nationalism is putting one group (or race) first.
That's the difference between patriotism and nationalism.
It’s hard to have a conversation with someone who is illiterate.

Um, I think you should read what the definition of Socialism is: Socialism is an economic system where the ways of making a living (factories, offices, etc.) are owned by a society as a whole, meaning the value made belongs to everyone in that society, instead of a group of private owners.

Nationalism:Examples of nationalism include: Any situation in which a nation comes together for a specific cause or in reaction to a significant event. The Battle of New Orleans in which Americans united at the conclusion of the American Revolution. The waving of flags and passionate anthem singing.

How is nationalism bad again????????? Because proud people of a proud country is bad?????? HUH??? Im lost.

You say that is if it is a bad thing.
