President Trump called-out CNN’s senior White House correspondent Jim Acosta Wednesday; roasting the reporter as a “rude, terrible person” and saying “CNN should be ashamed” to employ the journalist.
Sparks flew as the President spoke with reporters just hours after American voters went to the polls; telling Acosta, “Let me run the country, and you can run CNN.”

“CNN should be ashamed of itself having you working for them,” Trump said. “You’re a very rude, terrible person. The way you treat Sarah Huckabee Sanders is horrible. The way you treat other people is horrible. You shouldn’t treat people that way.”
