Ha! Somebody is feeling the heat this morning. The president appeared to be in a bit of a snit after last night’s political shakeup. During a morning news conference, he lashed out at CNN reporter Jim Accosta, calling him a “rude” and “terrible” person for daring to question the president’s inflammatory rhetoric regarding the migrant caravan.
“That’s enough!” he roared to Accosta, “Put down the mic! CNN should be ashamed of itself, having you working for them. You are a rude, terrible person, you shouldn’t be working for CNN. You’re a very rude person, the way you treat Sarah Huckabee, horrible. And the way you treat other people is horrible. You shouldn’t treat people that way.”
‘Sit down! You are very rude! You are fake news! When you report fake news, which CNN does a lot, you are the enemy of the people,’
Watch the fireworks below.

The President tried to shut Acosta down, ordering him to put his mic down, but the next person to ask a question was NBC’s Peter Alexander, who defended Acosta. That further infuriated the President.
And, it didn’t end there. American Urban Radio Networks correspondent April Ryantried to ask a question and Trump rudely shut her down.
