Jim Acosta is on CNN right now, and he is pissed off. Edit 2 And he just announced he is quitting CNN.

Trump is gonna lose it.

On edit: Or course as a new President in the opening days of his administration does not have the time to watch tv and will therefore miss this.

He doesn't have to watch the news. He just needs his cronies to come with the appalling news. As in, "You would be appalled at what the news guy just said."

It's a tragedy that there are not many more like Acosta. Instead, what we have gotten is fealty to trump or bothsiderism.
