Whether he was joking or not, CNN senior White House correspondent Jim Acosta made a fool of himself on Wednesday afternoon, spreading fake news that President Trump “now has the world record for injecting politics into the aftermath of a terror attack” for suggesting changes to immigration policy after Tuesday’s Manhattan terror attack.
Turns out, as we’ll see, the news media and particularly CNN have egg on their faces if they want to make that statement, whether it’s U.S. terror attacks in Boston, Fort Hood, Orlando, or San Bernardino.
The liberal showman was teed up by afternoon CNN Newsroom host Brooke Baldwin, who lamented Trump’s “stunning remarks…in response to this attack” and how “we’re not even really 24 hours — barely 24 hours in, and the President is already pushing Congress for several major changes.”
