Trump: I'll Throw Acosta Out the Next Time He Acts Like a Child, Or I'll Just Walk Out Myself

The judge made up some bullshit about a requirement of "due process" to cancel a hard pass, so Trump should just set up a tribunal, stocked with reliable people, who would evaluate "reporter" behavior and complaints from the White House about reporter behavior.

Then, "due process" satisfied -- until they Hawaiian judges discover a new Orange Man Bad penumbra and emanation in the Constitution.


But for now, Trump is saying he'll just toss him out again or cancel the press conference.

Jon Gabriel has an interesting suggestion: Trump should call on only Acosta, and only let Acosta speak for the full hour of a press conference.

Hey, if that's what the media wants -- the Jim Accoster Show -- then give it to them good and hard until they cry.

They need to use one of those mics on a stick. Some WH aide or intern extends the mic to whoever Trump indicates, and the reporter never gets to touch the mic (that should be in the rules too; any reporter who tries to grab the mic or hold onto it after Trump signals the questioner's time is done gets booted, immediately and permanently).

And if I was Trump, I'd never call on Acosta again. Giving him the whole time would just thrill that pompous egomaniac. Ignore him and act like he's not even in the room and he'll shrivel up and die, like a salted slug on the sidewalk.

93 Manly Mince Meat Pie - a limerick

This recipe might make no sense
But use currants and raisins and quince
Bake a fine and flaky crust
Add molasses if you must
Then fill it with meat...but don't mince

100 Really Acosta is just a proxy for the hardcore leftist who distain Trump's Authority and will not give Credence to his wishes. Difference to Authority seems to be a Hallmark of the left. some of the videos I've seen of college students arguing with Trump supporters or haranguing Trump supporters kind of remind me of disobedient children arguing that they don't want to clean their room. It's all based immaturity and they are tools being used to advance the Democrat agenda

When the press gets agitated, Trump can tell them that apparently some judge has decided Acosta is in charge of press conferences.

OR

Just don't tell Acosta where the Press conference is or when.

Play hide the conference room.

OR

Have two husky SS agents stand by Acosta during the Press conference as a 'security' measure.

OR

No Press conferences that include Acosta. Invitation only press allowed. I don't see why they have to accommodate hundreds of useless ppl.

cut the size down to where it used to be; <50 and only the larger venues. Allow a few multi venue reps to share the high points.

No judge should be allowed to tell the President who he can have at his press conference.

But THIS time, there's a set of rules written down that everyone "should" have gotten (gee you didn't get yours Jim? Did you check your spam folder?).

Now Courts can't say dick about it, because the only "constitutional" grounds for the injunction was that there was no protocol followed in kicking the bastard out the first time around.

204 On the correctness (or obvious incorrectness) of this judge's decision, I am going to post something another commenter (YD) put up in an earlier thread, because it is on point:
--------------
The point is, we had both Houses of Congresses, and they blocked everything on their own Party's agenda except for weak-tea tax reform that was favored by their donors, and they get away with it.

We have a federal judiciary that illegally enjoins the President whenever it wants, and gets away with it.

We have a federal law enforcement apparatus and intelligence agencies that's attempting a coup in broad daylight and getting away with it.

They're doing all of these things to make it clear to us that we have no say in our own governance.

Fuck Jim Acosta... this about me.

Better yet just walk in and stare at Acosta.

When the press gets
agitated, Trump can tell them that apparently some judge has decided
Acosta is in charge of press conferences.

OR

Just don't tell Acosta where the Press conference is or when.

Play hide the conference room.

OR

Have two husky SS agents stand by Acosta during the Press conference as a 'security' measure.

OR

No
Press conferences that include Acosta. Invitation only press allowed. I
don't see why they have to accommodate hundreds of useless ppl.

cut
the size down to where it used to be; <50 and only the larger
venues. Allow a few multi venue reps to share the high points.

No judge should be allowed to tell the President who he can have at his press conference.

Far too many news faces think they have a right to be there, and far too many think it is the only edge they have over other reporters.

I would love to hear President Trump announce this followed up with the statement that ONLY Jimmy "Corky" Acosta gets a permanent one, and that CNN won't get another until Jimmy "Corky" Acosta kicks off; that this means that all the other reporters can go do interesting things like report on big, breaking stories in exotic and fun locations, but Lil' Corky here is chained to this room, and this job, forever.

White people are vilified but they get to be exclusive while the rest of us are lumped together. As if African Americans and Asian Americans generally have similar experiences. (let's not even go into how Africa immigrants and their kids differ from African Americans.) I referred to the term tongue in cheek as promoting white supremacy since it's leftists who are trying to foist it on the public.

339 How about having all the accredited journolists drop a business card into a jar when they are first accredited. Questions are taken by drawing a card from the jar, and letting that journo ask a question +/- followups. The card then goes into jar #2. Questions come from jar #1 until it is empty, then over to #2. This makes the question order random source yet fair in that all get called upon and NO-ONE gets precedence.
And yes, yellow and red cards for interrupting or yelling or other un-civil conduct. Anyone who gets red-carded, has their business card removed from jar#1, if still not called upon, or sequestered from jar#2, to go into jar#1 when it is emptied: that person has to sit out a full cycle of questions.
And the mic should be remotely controlled so it can be shut off.

I do hope that the DOJ is appealing the Judge's Order. A press pass is none of 'life, liberty or property' for which due process of law is required (Fifth Am't). Or we are ALL entitled to attend. Even me, and I'm Canadian!
