.@acosta has comported himself with remarkable restraint while dealing with this Imposter-in-Chief. But as people in Hollywood have long known -- everything is harder when you're working with animals.





Trump must have been coming up for air, as shit wasn't coming out of his mouth.

watch the "Orange Shit" explode like something left in the microwave too long!

Seriously, what would he do - give a smart-ass answer? Storm out of the room? Lecture any other foreign leader for allowing the occasion to arise? Apologize to Acosta and give a sane and respectable answer (sorry, I crack me up sometimes! )

Many if not most Europeans know enough French to catch the shade being cast.

But totally unrelated; why did cuff links go away. We men have so few ways to style up. I have a few shirts with French cuffs and like wearing cuff links I got from my dad when he died. Ok. Rant over.

So does my husband.
At this point, we have more pairs than he will EVER have a need for (guy in his early 40s who wears jeans & a t-shirt to work), but we just like buying them.

He also wears suspenders when he dresses up!

They're such a nice polished finish, and really complete their "look". My youngest son considers his to be good luck, and credits them in part for his last promotion!

That's how much they hate us for sending him......

Seriously, they'd be perfectly happy if he took a one-way trip to the Yemen desert, so we do agree one this major point.

Now the entire world knows and at least respects Jim Acosta. just as you are beginning your slide into irrelevancy...your worst nightmare. Plus he's handsome and fit !

Question...Acosta is a Spanish name...wonder where his ancestors are from? Even sweeter.

Acosta's parents (or maybe grandparents) were Greek.
I'm betting Trump hates him because he is very good looking, smart and erudite --- in fact, everything that tRump is NOT.
