Attacking the press
I hope all media outlets band together against the white house after hearing about the CNN reporter yesterday.

Re: Attacking the press
I think it is absolutely ridiculous that Jim Acosta had his press pass revoked. I watched the video of the entire interaction with him and Trump. The intern was trying to grab the mic out of his hands and he was holding onto it - that's it! Trump calls Acosta rude but he is the rudest bully of them all.
I loathe this man. If I ever saw him in person I would try to shoot daggers or lasers out of my eyes.
On a separate but just as serious note, the resignation of Jeff Sessions is ridiculous too. Not that I liked the man but what is Trump's reason for asking for him to resign other than the fact that he is not going after Muller and that's what Trump wants. So now he is going to nominate another AG that will follow his rules - GTFOH!

Attacking the press
The White House has released a doctored video - originally from INFO WARS - of the "incident". This is insane.

OMG!
If youre not waking up now I hope you do. The press secretary used a doctored video (by a far right conspiracy driven news outlet) to ban him from going into the WH! Twilight zone. Meanwhile live videos recordings and witnesses can proove otherwise about this incident.
How is anyone supporting him!?
Oh I forgot. I want my guns and taxes to remain low.

I'm sure trump's base is loving their BS about Jim Acosta. A bunch of immature assholes that think the president is pure entertainment.
As for Sessions, I'm with you. I can't believe this country is so F'd up that I'm upset Sessions is out. I certainly never wanted him there to begin with. I just don't understand hopw it can be so obvious that Trump is appointing the new guy purely for his own benefit when this is a huge position for our country. How does it fly when it's so clear he's only interested in himself and not at all in the oath he took. It is mindblowing.

Where exactly did the WH release it? All I saw was one article by an outlet I've never heard of.

What's doctored about it? I honestly can't tell aside from the stupid zooming in on repeat
NM - I guess they sped it up or something to make it look more harsh. The article helped

It was sped up, so it looks like he aggressively "chopped" at her arm. They also clipped the audio where he apologized to her for banging into her arm.

Re: Attacking the press
I just love that these old white men sit around and scoff at women coming forward about being raped and sexually assaulted and call them liars... but when it suits their narrative, they are 100% against "violence against women".  What a f*cking joke.
And in every NORMAL video it looks like he's gesturing while speaking and she dives in to take the mic away and his arm hits hers.
ETA: And why was the mic being taken away anyway? Because they didn't like the question? Tough sh!t! I said to my DH this morning Trump reminds me of the surly football players who don't want to answer the press's questions and even they don't act this childish.

The way he spoke to this reporter was scary. It made me uncomfortable. I dont want my daughters to watch or hear him. Thats how negative of a vibe he gives off. Its not OK. Its not normal. And of course there is nothing on fox news about this.
And this morning he is saying no one doctored the video and will go after other reporters who don’t respect him. Its comical but scary.

I definitely think he's gotten a lot more aggressive or at least emboldened. I mean he has always said the dumbest stuff but he just doesn't care. He has no remorse.

Today was no better the way he called a female reporter's questions stupid in the nastiest way. It was mortifying.

I think he's scared. He's acting like a cornered raccoon. He knows that in January, everything changes, and he's not going to have the entire government doing whatever he wants, and there's a bigly chance that his tax returns will be subpoena'd, as well as other things coming down.
He knows he did a lot of bad (aka illegal) things, and he's panicking about getting caught....
I think it's going to be a scary few months, and he's going to only get more aggressive, more defensive, ramp out the lies even more than his current 30 lies per day, and just do anything he can come up with to distract everyone and blame everyone else for everything.

Attacking the press
And the absolutely ignorant idiots who blindly believe anything Foxnews related drive me even more nuts. Why can I explore both sides, but they won't even peer around the Fox wall?
