To a normal person, that’s not assault, to a prissy snowflake liberal, it’s assault. They want to play, we’ll play.

I agree with others. He gets his press pass revoked. When he gets it back, he has no seniority and sits in the back.

Defending the enemy? Worse than revolting! Join the side you’re on.

Battery maybe, but a DA would never bother with it.

Please have respect for Norman Acosta Desmond. Don’t you know that HE IS A STAR.

He should have allowed it. Why didn’t he let the staffer take the mic? That was aggressive on his part.

At the very least, the woman was Acosted.

Excusing a leftist assault, what the hell? Unbelievable, sick.

The surprised look of fear on the womans’ face should be enough for most men to make up their minds. if it was their wife or girlfriend theyd be thinking very carefully about what to actually say before its too late in the me too era.

Pull his credentials and ban him from the White House. Acosta should be considered a security risk to the President and his staff.

A DA had better bother with it if that woman were to file. Acosta committed battery.

To a person fighting for America it was evil, an assault. A cause for American consequences. Join the side you’re on. This isn't’t a game, it’s war.

This, at least, deserves him to forever have the new moniker of “Jim Accosted”.

I wouldn’t call blowing off a White House staffer an assault. Reprehensible yes.

He used his left arm/wrist to break her hold on the mic when she tried to take it. That’s not “Blowing her off”.

This was not an assault. Stop the sensationalism.

Assault? I’m not an attorney, but it doesn’t look like assault to me.

I would have liked to have seen President Trump have an armed security guard escort Mr. Acosta out of the room, and out of the building, and Mr. Acosta banned from future press conferences.

Then listen to the drive-bys scream!!!
