Also, I watched most of that presser and the Acosta situation wasn't the only controversy. There has been plenty of discussion about Trump erroneously calling the one reporter's question about white nationalism "racist," and how that plays into the way Trump disproportionately has these negative interactions with minorities. There were also lots of discussions about him flip-flopping in the presser from one moment to the next, his deflection of the Sessions question, etc., etc.

You see, when you pay attention to actual news sources there tends to be conversation about many things that occur in a press conference, not just the sensational things.

Oh I agree, I don't get my news from the one source everyone here accuses me of getting it from, I typically use BBC and google some others for a different set of eyes.

And it is racist to say White Nationalist, and Trump never claimed he was a White Nationalist, just a Nationalist which is not racist.

Oh and by the way, if you know so much, why didn't you answer what the presser was about and what Jim's question(s) were?

It's as Benton said, you stay on topic til later in the Presser when the POTUS opens it up for all questions.
