    Trump tells reporters that the video distributed by White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was simply a “close up” and “was not doctored.”

    But a frame-by-frame comparison with an Associated Press video of the same incident shows the one tweeted by Sanders appears to speed up CNN reporter Jim Acosta’s arm movement when he makes contact with a White House intern — apparently to make the gesture more threatening.

    Trump’s also defending the seizure of Acosta’s White House press credential and the president is suggesting that more reporters could lose theirs.

    Trump claims reporters aren’t “treating the office of the president with respect.”

    Of course the fake news does a great job getting distracted on stupidity rather than the issue . They love to gloss over facts .

    So we all admit that ACosta shamed an innocent intern in public . We all
    Admit that when she tried to get that mick which belonged to her ( meaning she was in charge of the mike and it is the wh mike ) , she was pushed aside . And we all agree that he used his hand to push her hand away . Is it an arrestable assault ? No . Is it wrong ? Would I be fired if I did it at my CEO townhall ? Yes . Is it something befitting someone of accosta stature ? No

    But go ahead fake news . Instead of saying that your man acts like a shtick behima you debate if it was altered or not . Shame shame in fake news CNN

    Trump certainly believes that if he repeats a lie often enough people will believe the falsehood. His loyal followers certainly do.
    Trump is the one who’s not treating the Office of the President with respect as clearly evidenced by his bizarre behavior at that news conference. Behavior was more befitting a TV performer like Morey Povich.
    What happened to the invading hordes of Central Americans who posed a grave threat to our country up until election day? It seems that now the elections is over both Trump and his cohorts at Faux News have forgotten about them

    Video wasnt altered…, he had the largest inaugaration crowd…, ted cruz’s father killed Kennedy… blah blah blah. Trump is pathetic. He has no credibility. He lies so often he probably cant comprehend what is truth and what is fiction.

    Even in Soviet Russia and Red China the people laughed at the doctored news from their corrupt govts. Here the trumpoids and alt-yidden lap it up. The producer himself said the video was doctored. No one trusts trumpf.

    The next reporter to be shown the door, should be April Ryan, alias Ms. Whining Victim”.

    Either it was or it was not edited. Time will tell.

    I searched for the videos on the web and found nothing to show it had been altered in any perceptible way. Clearly the reporter actually “karate chopped” the woman’s arm (perhaps he did not “mean to” – he was so pre-occupied attacking the President he does not seem to be paying attention to what he was even doing)
