Glutton For Punishment Jim Acosta Gets the Sanders Smackdown Yet Again
The next time you hear the # resistance at CNN complaining about what a big baby President Trump is   don ’ t forget that it takes one to know one . CNN ’ s Jim Acosta forgot for a second that there ’ s an actual grown up in the White House right now and her name is Sarah Huckabee - Sanders . Acosta experienced his first time out at the daily press briefing when the Press Secretary allowed him to ask a couple of questions about Trump ’ s complaints about # FakeNews and why  Trump  and  his  team insist on labeling “ honest ” reporter errors as fake news . After all   nothing says “ maturity ” like stomping your feet at a professional event and asking why the big   bad orange man no likey - wikey you . When Sanders moved on to another reporter   Acosta tightened the tabs on his diapers and started whining about how he didn ’ t get to ask the real question he meant to ask   despite being informed he had used his time to throw his very dumb temper tantrum . At Tuesday afternoon ’ s bill signing with POTUS   Acosta was back with the press . Sanders informed him that this was a signing and not a press conference and ( perhaps knowing exactly the type of crankypants she was dealing with ) that no questions would be answered during the brief signing and he should try to restrain himself . Naturally   this elicited all kinds of breathless reporting from the # Resistance pool . President Trump ignores question from @ Acosta on what the president meant when he tweeted that Sen . Gillibrand would do anything for a campaign contribution . — Allie Malloy (@ AlliemalCNN ) December 12   2017 Here ’ s video of the ( clearly inappropriate ) moment Acosta ignored the Press Sec ’ s instructions . Sarah Huckabee Sanders warned CNN ' s Jim Acosta not to play his games during the signing of the National Defense Authorization Act . Acosta claims she said : " I can ' t promise you will be allowed into a pool spray again ." # BanAcosta pic . twitter . com / wQtnhoYVE9 — Ryan Saavedra 🇺🇸 (@ RealSaavedra ) December 12   2017 Prior to this morment   @ presssec issued a warning to me . She said if I asked a question o Trump mp at the bill signing " I can ' t promise you will be allowed into a pool spray again ." Sorry Sarah .. we won ' t be intimidated . Oh   you ’ re such a martyr ! Heading for the door  Pres Trump mp waved off a question abou his is tweet saying @ SenGillibrand " would do anything " for a campaign contribution .  Acosta ta sai he he had been told by @ PressSe he he might never again be allowed in a press pool event i he he asked a question  he he did anyway . pic . twitter . com / XmG1XjYl1j — Mark Knoller (@ markknoller ) December 12   2017 Wow   what a hero . When my kids are rudely interrupting my duties for attention they are swiftly and firmly reminded that they are not the most important person in the room and their needs and questions need to wait for an appropriate time . It is rude to interrupt mommy for a non - emergency . It ’ s parenting 101 . Jim   your daddy ’ s busy running the country that he was democratically elected to lead . Wait your turn or it ’ s off to bed without your fancy Capitol Hill cocktail tonight . You ’ ve been dispatched .
