>>The White House is using a doctored video (from infowars) to justify taking away a civilians 1st Amendment rights and take his press pass.

I see you completely ignored the points about Acosta's abuse of question quotas to restate your own narrative.

Acosta "peppered" POTUS with questions (words of one of the saints) at a venue where you're allowed one plus a followup, then grappled in an unseemly fashion for the mike. Whether he chopped at the intern or not, he defied POTUS and the intern which is not a precedent that can be allowed IMHO. Acosta is not a kid, he ought to know that there's obligations as well as rights when you're a guest in anybody else's house let alone the White House. Break the house rules and don't expect to be invited back. Simple enough and not even the 1st amendment can be twisted to say otherwise.

If we're lucky the media will boycott the WH press briefings so they can be canceled and everybody can be happy that the 1st amendment is saved from bad orange man, yay!

>> Asking a question that Trump does not like is not "misbehaving" it's doing your job.

That's your loaded narrative of what happened, but Acosta has been a pita at the WH press briefings for months and it's not why the WH said they did it. Next I suppose the Orwellian narratives will declare that people are charged with shoplifting because they asked a question the shopkeeper didn't like.

>> He also called a black woman reporter a racist shortly after that ...

Is she a double-saint because she's got a dark skin as well as being a reporter? That's racist if so. Her loaded question tried to connect nationalism to white nationalist, sacrificing precious question opportunity to try to smear bad orange man. Why shouldn't he find that racist? Does she, and you, have no access to a dictionary to see how venal that sort of question is?

>>He called CNN and all the major news networks fake news and and enemy of the people.

Yeah? Even if true- imagine if he called them deplorable. Could you ever forgive bad orange man for that?
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
