CNN Sue's Trump and aids
Their chances of winning are zip in my opinion.
In fact, I think the aide that he assaulted should just put a restraining order against him...

"Here's what we know:
CNN and Acosta?s lawsuit to restore his White House access has sent shockwaves across the media industry.
Lawyers for the Trump administration are now working on a response.
CNN and Acosta are seeking an immediate hearing to obtain a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction.
A judge is reviewing the complaint.
There was no hearing on Tuesday, but one will likely take place on Wednesday."
Wow! Now that is news.

just call him a threat to the president, he may try to grab/push/ hit him next. as unstable as he has shown himself to be I don't see problem banning him 0 -
Shocked! I?m shocked, I tell you! 0 -
if acosters reputation was injured it is only because he brought it on himself by trying to hog the show....GONE is GOOD....there are other cnn reporters there to get the scoop...TS....i suppose they would sue if he was not chosen x number of times a show over all the others in the room ...maybe he would scream and throw a tantrum ...HOGWASH.... 0 -
What law was broken? What Constitutional Right was broken? 0 -
I believe the White House needs to restore Acosta's access to press briefings, but relegate him to the very back row of the room, never to be called on; no more front and center for the attention whore! He can still spew his BS and CNN's fake news; just not at White House briefings or interviews! 0 -
BACK ROW with a guard standing behind him so he cannot swat down another young intern 0 -
Things would go a lot better if they would just LAY DOWN some rules before they begin......
Rule #1 should be the minute the President points to another person to answer a question you are NOT TO SPEAK or try to keep asking questions, your turn is done the moment the President says it is.
If they keep speaking after the President has moved to another reporter the entire meeting should be OVER and the President should walk away. They can enact a policy that if you disrupt the meeting and cause it to end by speaking out of turn you cannot come back.
A simple "no interruptions or keeping the attention once you've been told your turn is done" policy would put a little order in that room that obviously isn't there now.0 -

Clearly, Acosta showed ZERO RESPECT for the President and the Office of the President by continuing to yap after Trump said he was done and went to another person.
Such disrespect has become 'standard' toward others in the USA and I find it not only disrespectful, but horrible manners and an abomination.
Perhaps in the future, a couple of Marines should be stationed beside the President. [;)]
Don't ask me how I really feel about it!
On the flip side, Trump could answer the questions and set the record straight, instead of creating all this hubbub about nothing. It's just a distraction, he never answered the direct questions. It's sad so many "Trumpeteers" here don't see that. [V]
Oh you poor baby, Trump didn't answer the leading questions the way you wanted, boo hoo. He should have had the Marines haul that pos out and imprisoned.
You do know he is the President of the United States of America and the Commander in Chief of the Armed Services don't you?
His head would have been removed in many a country, he should feel lucky and privileged that he was even allowed to stand in the same room. Ungrateful entitled pukes.0 -

[President Donald Trump:] Let?s go. Let?s go. Come on.
[Question:] That this caravan was an ?invasion.? As you know, Mr. President ?
[President Donald Trump:] I consider it to be an invasion.
[Question:] As you know, Mr. President, the caravan was not an invasion. It?s a group of migrants moving up from Central America towards the border with the U.S.
[President Donald Trump:] Thank you for telling me that. I appreciate it.
[Question:] Why did you characterize it as such? And ?
[President Donald Trump:] Because I consider it an invasion. You and I have a difference of opinion.
[Question:] But do you think that you demonized immigrants in this election ?
[President Donald Trump:] Not at all. No, not at all.
[Question:] ? to try to keep ?
[President Donald Trump:] I want them ? I want them to come into the country, but they have to come in legally. You know, they have to come in, Jim, through a process. I want it to be a process. And I want people to come in. And we need the people.
[Question:] Right. But your campaign had ? your campaign ?
[President Donald Trump:] Wait. Wait. Wait. You know why we need the people, don?t you? Because we have hundreds of companies moving in. We need the people.
[Question:] Right. But your campaign had an ad showing migrants climbing over walls and so on.
[President Donald Trump:] Well, that?s true. They weren?t actors. They weren?t actors.
[Question:] They?re not going to be doing that.
[President Donald Trump:] They weren?t actors. Well, no, it was true. Do you think they were actors? They weren?t actors. They didn?t come from Hollywood. These were ? these were people ? this was an actual ? you know, it happened a few days ago. And ?
[Question:] They?re hundreds of miles of way though. They?re hundreds and hundreds of miles away.
[President Donald Trump:] You know what?
[Question:] That?s not an invasion.
[President Donald Trump:] I think you should ? honestly, I think you should let me run the country, you run CNN ?
[Question:] All right.
[President Donald Trump:] ? and if you did it well, your ratings would be much better.
[Question:] But let me ask, if I ? if I may ask one other question ?
[President Donald Trump:] Okay, that?s enough.
[Question:] Mr. President, if I may ? if I may ask one other question.
[President Donald Trump:] Okay, Peter, go ahead.
[Question:] Are you worried ?
[President Donald Trump:] That?s enough. That?s enough. That?s enough.
[Question:] Mr. President, I didn?t ? well, I was going to ask one other. The other folks that had ?
[President Donald Trump:] That?s enough. That?s enough.
[Question:] Pardon me, ma?am, I?m ? Mr. President ?
[President Donald Trump:] Excuse me, that?s enough.
[Question:] Mr. President, I had one other question if ?
[President Donald Trump:] Peter. Let?s go.
[Question:] ? I may ask on the Russia investigation. Are you concerned that you may have indictments ?
[President Donald Trump:] I?m not concerned about anything with the Russia investigation because it?s a hoax.
[Question:] ? that you may indictments coming down? Are you ?
[President Donald Trump:] That?s enough. Put down the mic.
[Question:] Mr. President, are you worried about indictments coming down in this investigation?
[Question:] Mr. President ?
[President Donald Trump:] I?ll tell you what: CNN should be ashamed of itself having you working for them. You are a rude, terrible person. You shouldn?t be working for CNN. Go ahead.
[Question:] I think that?s unfair.
[President Donald Trump:] You?re a very rude person. The way you treat Sarah Huckabee is horrible. And the way you treat other people are horrible. You shouldn?t treat people that way. Go ahead. Go ahead, Peter. Go ahead.

Uh, what assault? The aide was overly aggressive in her attempt to snatch the microphone away because Trump kept telling her to take the mic and Acosta blocked her grab, nothing more. Has anyone actually watched the unaltered video? I'm not referring to the enhanced one by InfoWars that increased the speed of his hand motion to make it look more aggressive, like he chopped her hand away. What a load of malarky all the way around. If Trump had simply answered the question, instead of turning it into a circus. Oh well, a distraction is a distraction and this one is clearly working. Gee, I wonder what's next? [V]
Watch the videos, Trump answered questions until accoster got belligerent. Accoster wouldn't give up the microphone and let the president go to the next reporter. Accoster has done the same and worse for almost two years.

Whats with the military? I served 10 years. I got out because i could make 4 times the money with Dyncorp doing the same job with less hours.
I would rather have Trump president than the clown we had the last time.
If you hate Trump you must have liked Obama.
What did the big eared O do for the military?0 -

Actually, an answer to an unfinished question. Okay, I get it. Right or wrong, you're another that sees the emperor's new clothes. Although I voted for him, in my opinion he has let the entire country down with his antics and insulted so many that I admire for their actual service to this country. He is treating his presidency like that silly game show he was on, that flopped. The impacts that he causes on the average American, he will never feel. He has lived his entire life in a bubble of non-reality, impervious to caring if something fails. It won't affect him. Nothing will affect him. He also won't fix anyone elses life, especially in the U.S.. I don't understand the undying admiration some here give him. He couldn't care any less about you than anyone else he doesn't know. You don't make him money, even if you "give him the love." That statement about Republican candidates that didn't win their seats pretty much sums his character up. If you approve of that, your character is equally defined. [;)]
I have not said I even admire the man. You are the one who made claims that have been proven false. You even claim his show was a flop but it did not flop until he was no longer on it. Why keep making false statements unless you are no better than the news organizations that do likewise? Don0 -

MAGA, jail the pukes.
I know you never served. Either that or you are a total traitor for not honoring your oath of office.
So which is it? Are you a Commie or a Traitor, ANSWER THE QUESTION, one or the other. Answer the question ARE YOU A COMMIE OR A TRAITOR, very simple, one of two answers to pick from.0 -

He wanted to "challenge" Trump on the caravan, then finally asked his question when Trump called on someone else.
It's a Presidential news conference, not a talk show hosted by Jim Acosta.0 -

Well, for starters, you can't place your hands on an individual as Acosta did. Additionally, a key element of every "profession" is a set of guiding rules for decorum.... he clearly violated those. Lastly, if my daughter were that intern, he'd have more on his mind that a lawsuit against the POTUS.
Why is it completely acceptable to treat the man who is occupying the office of the POTUS in the manner so many treat him these days? Like it or not, he is the POTUS, and thankfully, our form of government allows us t change that each and every four years if we'd like.
Acosta's favorite story to report on, is a story of Acosta.

Since, in your opinion, those that didn't serve the in the military need to sit down, shut up, and not have an opinion. (You've repeatedly expressed that opinion on this forum.) Is it also okay if they be excused from paying taxes, since there opinion doesn't count. I wonder how good the military would be if only veterans paid taxes to run it? Since less than 8% of the current US population is serving or has served in the US military that would be some pretty high taxes.0 -
What about some respect and decency from the press.
CNN or anyone can file a complaint against anyone. In this case even under the 1st amendment they will lose under past precedence and common courtesy.0 -

Exactly.... Certainly, conservatives didn't care for President Obama, but you never had to endure this poop. President Trump answered questions for over an hour (hard to find another president who's done that in a while), yet Acosta showed no respect for his professional standards as a member of the Whitehouse Press, or as a regular citizen (as we all are), and cries when he's removed after preventing a WH intern from passing the mike? Really?

Exactly Diver, and instead of CNN taking care of him showing his ass, they double down. Surely one of the other 5,000 employees at CNN must be capable of behaving in a professional manner...... or, perhaps not.

Accosters memory must be failing, Accoster has asked Trump about Russia many times and pontificated about Trump/Russia many more.
How many ways can you ask the same question before someone gets really pizzed and becomes really tired of listening to Accosters interviews when he supposed to be getting news, like new news. No, he wants to be President of the U.S.0 -

I heard him answer the question and it didn't sound like "blah, blah, blah"like what you heard. Of course my ears aren't full of earwax either.. maybe you oughta start taking personal hygiene seriously... Personal is more than taking your once-a-year bath like you do... You should start taking a bath or a shower at least once a day, and cleaning your ears out so they're not jam-packed full of earwax occasionally along with brushing your teeth...0 -
Accosta does not a have a legal right to be there, in the White House. CNN does not have a right to a specific reporter in the pool, they apparently have five to six other White House credentialed reporters that can ask questions. Any judge that entertains CNN's position, IMO is acting as an leftist activist. The White House administration has an obligation to maintain rules of etiduette, Jim Accosta violates those rules on a daily basis during the press conferences, has been pointed out for it and still creates that distraction. It has been reported that many members of the press corp have complained about his behavior. If CNN's bosses had any self-respect they would recognize that Accosta has become the story, rather than reporting on it and is thus ineffective. But CNN is not a NEWS source, they are using Jim Accosta to attack the President and his agenda in a partisan fashion. In the end, I believe the courts will find that Accosta does not have a 1st Am. right to participate at the briefings, that the fact that other reporters from the same NEWS agency can participate reinforces that decision. If Accosta should win, move him to the back and don't ask him questions. When he interrupts, trying to bring the spotlight on him, ban him again. 0 -
If he wins it means our country, at least it?s legal system, has fallen yet another notch. The whole thing is most likely about raising CNN?s ratings. 0
