Washington – President Donald Trump says the White House is “writing up rules and regulations” for reporters after a judge ordered the administration to restore credentials for CNN reporter Jim Acosta.

Trump told reporters Friday that “people have to behave.” He added that if journalists “don’t listen to the rules and regulations, we will end up back in court and we will win.”
Asked what he meant by rules and regulations, Trump said: “Decorum. You can’t take three questions and four questions. And just stand up and not sit down.”
Trump said he wants “total freedom of the press,” but added “you have to act with respect.”
The White House said Friday that it would “temporarily reinstate” the credentials that were revoked after Acosta and Trump tangled during a press conference last week.
The President is fighting the lefty loonies with sechel. And he will win.
If this POS is indeed to get back all his privileges, I hope the president and Sara Sanders never, ever call on him again to ask his nasty questions,
Trump only wants easy querstions from reporters like he gets when he appears on Faux News programs whic are part of the State Television Network.
He won’t answer questions about why his daily fear mongering about the hordes of Central Americans trying to enter the US ended after election day. Only questions he likes should be asked in future.
Why didn’t the White House appeal the Judge’s ruling, and not reinstate that slimeball’s pass, pending the outcome of the appeal, which could have taken months, or longer?
The courts decided with Acosta and against Trumf the KKK lover.
The way reporters are called on by any President (with all of them screaming and waiving their hands), is silly. I would have a wheel (similar to a lottery), with all of the reporter’s names, as well as the news organizations which they represent. The wheel would be spun, and then the President would thenselect a reporter’s name, from the wheel. I would limit the selection to perhaps two dozen names. In that way, all of those present would have the same chance to be called upon; this would end speculation of “the President only calling upon those whom he likes”.
