Attendees at a rally for President Donald Trump swarmed behind CNN reporter Jim Acosta during his live shot on Tuesday, yelling 'liar,' 'tell the truth,' and 'CNN sucks' as the crowd egged them on.

Trump has not yet arrived at the Florida State Fairgrounds Expo Hall where supporters are filling the building and the media are awaiting his arrival.

A crowd of about 50 came up to the press area when they saw Acosta on the risers for his live shot to wave signs supporting Trump and yell 'CNN sucks' and 'Trump, Trump, Trump.'

Some had written 'CNN sucks' with markers on 'Make America Great Again' signs that they waved to the cameras.

Rows of metal barriers separate the press from the crowd so they could not reach the reporter.

Acosta calmly completed his shot and then turned to talk to the crowd when he was done.

Later in the evening, when he was doing another shot, the entire auditorium screamed 'CNN sucks, CNN sucks, CNN sucks' - interrupting the Florida state officials who were speaking ahead of Trump's arrival....

You know this’ll be depicted as worse than anything antifa or the Ferguson rioters ever did.

please make special notice that they never were physically violent or abusive to his person. Libtards need to take note of this especially as recent.

Yep. It’s exactly what CNN wants to make us look as nutty as their fellow leftists.

Never wrestle with pigs. All you get is filthy and the pigs like it.

I’ll never forget during the Elian Gonzalez days in Florida a CNN guy was spouting off ridiculous propaganda in the street when suddenly a tear gas can popped off downwind and he starts coughing and running away. I was thinking “maybe that cop’s a non-liberal.” Because there were no riots near this guy.

Punch back twice as hard and CNN and its employees are a worthy target.

We’ll never again enjoy anything remotely as great as Trump. Dinesh’s movie compares him to Lincoln and I think that’s right, once in a century at most.

We had about a hundred peacecreeps show up at the Air Guard base I worked at as a security policeman protesting nuclear weapons (of which we had none and hadn’t for years). Many a hickory shampoo was given that day and boy did we enjoy it. I imagine it was a small glimpse of being a Chicago cop at the 1968 DNC.

What do we do after Potus-Trump? Seriously I am watching the rally now, and it is like steak, delicious fat think prime of primo steak Red Meat for my I am sick of both side of the isle swamp you all suck heart.

I know what you mean. I enjoyed it when Reagan was president, but Trump is something else, a Republican who really fights back, with humor, and a flair. May never see his likes again.

I agree. The right has always just sat back and absorbed things like this that the left does non stop. We need to not only hit back, but hit back harder. Alinskyism is not a one way street.

“Some will see this as giving Acosta and CNN a stage.”

I wouldn’t worry about that too much ... CNN is now down in the ratings so far that even the Food Channel is beating them ...

Amen Amen to your post.

Payback is going to be a bitch. I do believe The Deplorables have had enough and want to return the treatment that RATs have been shoving at us since election night.
