Honestly I'm surprised he wasnt physically removed from the press conference. They reporters act like they run the press conference. They dont. I would have loved to see Trump walk over and slap the shite out of CNN fake news guy.

That was a display of utter disrespect and unprofessionalism. He should have been removed from the room when he did not comply with the President’s request

Did you watch the video? He answered his question. Actually, it was more of a dissertation by Acosta than a question. But, Trump answered it and then did what you said(ignore him), by moving on to the next reporter. Acosta refused, was unprofessional, and acted like a third grade child by not acknowledging that his time was up and to be seated and quiet. Trump had no choice but to confront him. Otherwise, Acosta would just keep going and going and going... 


No i didnt watch it...i know Acosta is an arse and i should have included, in my original comment, an option for JA to be restricted from WH grounds (not CNN...but JA) but i still believe Trump has the option to ignore JA .."Jim your times up, either you are move on or Im moving but either way there are other people here that are wanting to do their job" no shouting or headlines approaching that. Then if he persists prohibit him on the grounds that he is blocking others from doing their job. Point is JA is giving a nearly fool proof opportunity to be painted as the ahole - take it, and dont give him any ammo to claim he's the victim

I agree with what you are saying. But, watch the video. He did what you describe, Acosta would not shut up. It was either let Acosta run the show, walk out, or confront him. Acosta needed confronting. And, I agree with you, he should be banned from the Whitehouse. It won't happen though, because his antics help Trump. It exposes their bias.

Trump tried to move on. Acosta acting like a rude and terrible person led to the confrontation
