Do the rules say anything about the behavior of the president? He really showed his arse tbh.

Acosta: "Thank you Mr. President. I wanted to challenge you on one of the statements you made in the tail end of the campaign, uh, in the midterms th-"(Trump interupting: "Here we go.")

Acosta: "Well, (Trump: "Come on. Come on. *whistles* Let's go.)..if you don't mind Mr. President..you said that this caravan was an invasion. As you kn- (Trump: "I consider it to be an invasion.")

Acosta: "As you know, Mr. President, that this caravan was not an invasion. It's a group of migrants moving up from Central America to the U.S (interupted by Trump: "Thank you for telling me that, I appreciate it.")

Acosta: "Why did you characterize it as such?"

Trump: "Because I consider it an invasion. You and I have a difference of opinion."

Acosta: "But do you think you demonized immigrants in this election to try.. "

Trump: "No, not at all. I want them to come into this country, but they have to come in legally. You know, Jim, they have to come in through a process. I want it to be a process and I want people to come in, and we need the people. (Acosta interupting: "Your campaign".. Trump talking over him: "Wait. Wait.")

Trump: "You know why we need the people, don't you? Because we have hundreds of companies moving in. We need the people."

Acosta: "But your campaign had an ad showing migrants climbing over walls and so on.. they (the caravan) arent going to do that"

Trump: "Well that's true. They weren't actors. They weren't actors. Did you think they were actors? They didn't come from Hollywood..

Acosta: "They (the caravan) are hundreds and hundreds of miles away, though. That's not an invasi- (Trump interupting)

Trump: "Honestly, I think you should let me run the country. You run CNN. And if you did it well your ratings would be much better."

Acosta: "Alright.. if I may ask anoth-" (Trump: "Alright, that's enough")

Okay I haven’t really been following this. Watched it live though...

What exactly was “doctored”? Can someone link a side by side of the original and the “doctored” video?

Hilarious. People that constantly call the president crude and unpresidential suddenly claim they...themselves... are incapable of acting in a professional manner.



If you can behave professionally find another career.

There are ways to be objective in decorum. Like one question per reporter unless a request for more is granted.
