Jim Acosta just destroyed Donald Trump’s stooge Kayleigh McEnany

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Donald Trump is too busy tweeting violent threats and fake videos to have time to brief the press, so he has his White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany doing a briefing today. Unfortunately for McEnany, it’s not going particularly well – thanks in part to the steeliness of CNN reporter Jim Acosta.

Last night Donald Trump tweeted a doctored video which falsely claimed to be a CNN report about a “racist baby” on the loose. Twitter ended up slapping a warning label on the tweet. During today’s press briefing, Acosta asked McEnany why Trump was exploiting two toddlers to try to score phony political points with a fake video.

McEnany responded by insisting that Trump’s doctored video was “funny.” Acosta fired back with “What’s funny about these two toddlers hugging one another?” We’re awarding the victory on this one to Jim Acosta.
