CNN’s Acosta Makes Another Huge Gaff On Twitter, Get’s Destroyed Immediately
Jim Acosta is still trying to stay relevant by talking more smack about President Trump.
This time he’s taken to the immigration policies of President Trump.
Trump in Rose Garden speech paints asylum seekers with broad brush accusing them of misleading immigration authorities at border: “These are frivolous claims.”

Acosta was met with criticism right away.
Official Trump War Room tweeted, How can you do this and go home at night thinking you’ve turned in an honest day’s work as a journalist? Full transcript of what President Trump actually said:
We must also restore the integrity of our broken asylum system. Our nation has a proud history of affording protection to those fleeing government persecutions. Unfortunately, legitimate asylum seekers are being displaced by those lodging frivolous claims — these are frivolous claims — to gain admission into our country.
Asylum abuse also strains our public school systems, our hospitals, and local shelters, using funds that we should, and that have to, go to elderly veterans, at-risk youth, Americans in poverty, and those in genuine need of protection. We’re using the funds that should be going to them. And that shouldn’t happen. And it’s not going to happen in a very short period of time. Have to get this approved.
My plan expedites relief for legitimate asylum seekers by screening out the meritless claims. If you have a proper claim, you will quickly be admitted; if you don’t, you will promptly be returned home.
How can you do this and go home at night thinking you've turned in an honest day's work as a journalist?

Some of the comments from other Twitter users were probably a little more passionate and and less harm on Acosta.

Like Kelly Anne Conway said months ago, nobody likes you. She means it and it really is the truth.
