Jim Acosta Shares Trump's Spiteful Reaction To His CNN Exit With 1 Line Of Mockery
HuffPost
The president responded to reports of Acosta's departure from CNN by calling the journalist a "sleazebag" and "major loser."
Jim Acosta hit back at Donald Trump after the president went on an insult-filled tirade about the journalist amid reports he was leaving CNN.
Trump had posted on Truth Social Tuesday celebrating reports that the anchor intended to quit his job after he was pushed to move from a 10 a.m. Eastern time slot to a midnight shift amid a shake-up of the network’s schedule.
“Wow, really good news! Jim Acosta, one of the worst and most dishonest reporters in journalistic history, a major sleazebag, has been relegated by CNN Fake News to the Midnight hour, ‘Death Valley,’ because of extraordinarily BAD RATINGS (and no talent!),” Trump wrote. “Word is that he wants to QUIT, and that would be even better. Jim is a major loser who will fail no matter where he ends up. Good luck Jim!”
Acosta shared on X (formerly Twitter) a screen grab of Trump’s post, and threw in his own take on a favorite term coined by Trump and his supporters.
“Looks like somebody has ADS: Acosta Derangement Syndrome,” Acosta wrote.
