If the president is a liar, a crook, a womanizer, with zero manners, he is not fit for the dignity of the office of the presidency. That's like saying we should have respected slaughter-master Sani Abacha of Nigeria because he was a general. Just no.

Added to which, nothing in Jim Acosta's questions, behaviour, tone or manner were remotely rude.

Maybe its a foreigner's perspective but slaughtering an independent journalist after luring him to your consulate is disrespectful to the monarchy.https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/saudi-crown-prince-described-slain-journalist-as-a-dangerous-islamist-in-call-with-white-house/2018/11/01/b4513e05-2d8e-4533-9cc8-2cabf8bb2d0a_story.html?utm_term=.ab8365880192 …

It's definitely a foreigner's perspective... & a big miscalculation by KSA & UAE. Trump is not acting presidential, nor does he have the power that a King has. He has attempted to breach the law & act above it. The press (free speech) & country have a duty to check his power.
-
He just lost the Congress - who will now push forward investigating him on EVERY law he et al have breached. This will also bring MbS into the fold. Things are about to get VERY messy. But this is what happens when people try to abuse their power in a democracy. Watch and learn.
-
There is nothing to learn here except that hot shot owners of the media outlets assume they have the right to override the people's choice and demonize anyone they don't like.
-
People's choice?? No sweetie, it is likely that Trump's presidency will actually be declared invalid and void when all is said and done. Trump et al are all in a LOT of legal trouble right now, he is not an honest man. That is why he's acting so crazy, he's scared.

Here’s an American’s perspective... the office of POTUS has created this combative environment, and it’s a double edged sword.

Not sure I’d agree the guy was being rude here. All what this video tells me is that things are going to get ugly in the US. America deserves better than this. I hope Saudi Arabia is prepared this will have on them.

But
@Acosta wasn't heckling Trump, as was the congressman with Obama--he was asking legitimate questions in the proper forum. Question-asking is a foundation of freedom of the press. Trump was the one relying on name-calling & personal attacks, like a would-be demagogue.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
