I've never experienced such a display of disrespect, temper-tantrum throwing and overall pathetic behavior by the so called 'reporter pool'.

i wish trump kept the conference going for another hour so people could see what babies the press are and how vicious and melty they all act.

enemy of the AMERICAN people for sure.

Acosta was mirroring Obama's exact talking point like he was Obama and not a reporter asking a quastion.

He asked Trump answered and Acosta wanted to give a mini Obama speech talking point.

Typical exchange from this presser (paraphrased)

REPORTER
Mr. President, how do you plan to respond to domestic, anti-Semitic attacks in this country? And do you consider it to be domestic terrorism?

TRUMP
Bibi Netanyahu loves me. Did you know that I moved the embassy to Jerusalem?

REPORTER
That is nice, but I am asking about domestic, anti-Semitic terrorism. Can you respond?

TRUMP
Did you know that the Premier of China loves me, too?

REPORTER
Mr. President, domestic terrorism ....

TRUMP
Next question ....


Again, and again, and again, and again. And you people think he did a good job. Jesus H. Christ.

I dare the press try to hold the President accountable for his words and actions.

Quotes?

Did YOU have a stenographer handy? Sorry, but I did not ... and I was unable to find a transcript online so soon after the presser.

Good God, you are an idiot.

Do these same "reporters" ask the president to respond to anti-Christian terror attacks when churches have been shot up?

No. That's because they are disingenuous at best, and evil, lying whores at worst.

Aggie,

I heard it, you left off one key phrase "white supremacist terrorists", talk about chumming the waters, the President was absolutely correct for not addressing a racist reporter.

Different reporter. Different topic. Different question.

But same to you, no doubt.

It's time for Acosta to have his credentials pulled, this self aggrandizing shite show has gone on long enough.

Acosta was trying to convince the most powerful man in the world that his opinion was wrong and that Acosta’s was right. Trump tried to move on but Acosta called down the thunder. I would love to have a free press but the press we have today is nothing more than propaganda for the DNC.

What has Acosta done to earn the right to be a jackass on TV?

He's an arse, he's treated like an arse, and now the asses on TD come to his defense.

As I recall, it was a Jewish reporter, for a Jewish publication, asking a question about anti-Semitic violence. Trump completely avoided the question ... twice.

Then we had the Black reporter who asked a question that gave Trump the perfect opportunity to draw the distinction between White Nationalism and the more-generic "nationalism" that he used earlier. Trump's response? To call the reporter a "racist" for asking the question.
