On Tuesday Acosta announced that he’d be leaving the network in an on-air farewell in which didn’t pull any punches as he branded Trump a “tyrant” and urged viewers not to “give in to the lies” or “fear.”

“Hold on to the truth and to hope,” he said, also thanking the staff at CNN for their support through his 18-year career at the network.

Just before he went live, however, Trump took to Truth Social and posted an attack on the journalist, not missing the opportunity to gloat:

Wow, really good news! Jim Acosta, one of the worst and most dishonest reporters in journalistic history, a major sleazebag, has been relegated by CNN Fake News to the Midnight hour, “Death Valley,” because of extraordinarily BAD RATINGS (and no talent!). Word is that he wants to QUIT, and that would be even better. Jim is a major loser who will fail no matter where he ends up. Good luck Jim!


PATHETIC GASBAG!

1. Throw a rock into a pig pen; the one that squeals is the one you hit.

Acosta threw a rock and Trump squealed.
Bishop Budde threw a rock and Trump squealed.
He's so damn predictable.

2. The ratings are going to be even lower on CNN

He was the only commentator that was honest and reported the real honest news. I only saw clips of him posted here.

I can’t remember the last time I watched that cable channel.

Assholes always punch down and lie about others.
