    He handles the heat fine - playing the fake news media like a fiddle. If reporters like Acosta were smart their strategy would be to ignore Trump.

    The question about why he wanted the job is a good question since he apparently does not want to do many of the things he promised he would do such as halting illegal immigration.

    Well, as you know, Acosta is a liar, as is the propaganda operation he works for. With that fact in mind, the questions from legitimate News organizations get asked, and answered.

    Perhaps the pretenders could learn something from that.

    Anyone who asks challenging questions of Trump works for an illegitimate news organization? The questions are asked and bullsht is very often given as an answer.

    Saying what news source may be there and may not be there, depending on your taste.
    Sounds like you want a regime that acts like North Korea.

    Challenging questions are asked of the President all the time. He answers those questions all the time.

    Whether people like his answers or not means squat.

    Poser organizations like cnn and others in their class, along with amateurs like Jimmy, lie and misrepresent those answers in order to keep their equally uninformed audience mesmerized by the dog whistles.

    Looks like you don't have clue how to respond and this was the very best response you could imagine.

    Probably better to have passed it by.....

    You have contributed nothing to give a counter argument to.

    It's simple, what was the question in that lecture? Now, I know you won't acknowledge what happened there because of your personal hatred of the President, but it was Acosta who not only grandstands with that crap, but makes himself the story...that doesn't make him anything more than a hack.

    It is you who are uninformed. This con-man has you tied up in knots. You wouldn't know a penetrating question, and there is no misrepresenting of those answers because we all heard them. He answers softball questions.
    Good question.

    Attack? Assaulting?
    Your just a total drama queen. Plain and simple. I'm laughing at YOU not with you. When did the cons turn into pathetic YES men?
    I liked you better when Obama was president and you guys had a spine. Oh well the mighty does fall...lol

    The only conman I can see is Acosta.Pretending to be a journalist while making it all about himself at all times.No respect for profession, no respect for fellow journalists etc....Entitled spoiled brat thinks he can ask far more questions than any other journalist in the room. If everyone else gets 1 or 2 questions to ask the spoiled brat Acosta should do the same out of respect for colleagues.

    I think Jim Acosta and all others the like who aren't journalists but hacks paid by the left to spew their biased garbage should be totally ignored until they can learn to behave. Their so called reporting is not only despicable but like Trump said, the enemy of the people. The rhetoric which they loosely refer to as news, has become extremely dangerous and divisive to the point if not toned down soon, will probably cause a civil war.

    But in all fairness, they aren't alone in that endeavor. The GOP not bringing charges against the left is just as bad. Getting everyone riled up and then allowing their crimes to go unpunished constantly stirring the pot is making the masses nuts as well.

    When you got a "president" only having reporters it likes and have a state run broadcast... that's just how it is in North Korea.
    If you don't get that, than you better just quietly leave.

    Obviously, I am very well informed. Those who depend on outlets like cnn and others in like it clearly lack an understanding of what that means, or they wouldn't be trying to defend them.

    LOL.

    It should be embarrassing that your reply is the very best you could come up with.

    Not defending at all. I just listen to Trump denigrating any journalist who asks questions that he doesn't want to answer. This incident is another example.
