A federal judge may have issued that the White House reinstate Jim Acosta’s press pass, but that does not mean that President Trump does not have a backup plan.
In an interview with Chris Wallace, Trump stated that he will do the next time that Acosta acts up and I think he means it too.
Chris Wallace asked him “A federal judge, who you appointed has just ruled that you must give CNN reporter Jim Acosta his press pass back. Your reaction to the ruling, sir.”
“Yeah, it’s fine I mean it’s not a big deal,” POTUS responded. “What they said though is that we have to create rules and regulations for conduct etc. etc.”
“What are your rules going to be?” Wallace asked.
“We’re writing them now. We’ll have rules of decorum you know you can’t keep asking questions. We had a lot of reporters in that room, many MANY reporters in that room and they were unable to ask questions because this guy gets up and starts you know doing what he’s supposed to be doing for him and for CNN and you know just shouting out questions and making statements too.”
Trump continued.
“But I will say this, look, nobody believes in the First Amendment more than I do and if I think somebody is acting out of sorts I will leave I will say thank you very much, everybody, I appreciate you coming and I’ll leave… and those reporters will not be too friendly to whoever it is that’s acting up.”
