Peacock of CNN, Jim Acosta, Spreads Misquote on Twitter, Then, When It Is Proven Conclusively That He Is Spreading Fake News, Doubles Down on the Lie

When will Twitter suspend Jim Acosta for deliberately spreading fake news?

Oh, that's right. The Credentialed Media can lie as much as they like. They define reality.

Trump in Rose Garden speech paints asylum seekers with broad brush accusing them of misleading immigration authorities at border: “These are frivolous claims.”
— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) May 16, 2019

But what Trump actually said is that frivolous claims clog up the system and prevent the meritorious claims from being processed.

CNN's @Acosta is a liar.

Trump said: "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, hospitals, local shelters..." https://t.co/gZ0y6AhfwC

You know there's video proving you're lying, right?

Instead of admitting he got it wrong (or deliberately lied), Acosta chooses to argue that he is right... in spirit!

Trump has repeatedly questioned the motives of asylum seekers at the border. Last month he described their claims as a “scam” and a “hoax.” https://t.co/6jxzfcdZ3a
— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) May 16, 2019

Trump said some of those claims are hoaxes.

And he's right. If you consider eighty percent to suffice to be called "some."

80 percent of asylum cases at southwest border are not legitimate https://t.co/7jnjU3ald6

Garbage. Absolute garbage. He should be mass-reported to Twitter, just to force Twitter into the position of having to admit that reporters can do anything on Twitter, including spreading complete fictions and unhinged conspiracy theories.
