PEAK CNN! Jim Acosta apparently NOT skeptical of coronavirus numbers reported by country that lied about it all in the first place

Cases of coronavirus in the United States continue to rise, and CNN’s Jim Acosta put it this way:

CNN: The United States now has more coronavirus cases reported than any other country in the world.

— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) March 26, 2020

The US has just passed China, a country four times larger In population. https://t.co/l8qauNUuDo

Hey, we’re not accusing CNN’s chief Resistance reporter of not being entirely forthcoming, but Adam Housley added some context that Acosta didn’t have room for in his tweets:

Jim…not discounting what we are facing…do you honestly believe the numbers China has reported?

— Adam Housley (@adamhousley) March 27, 2020

Yeah, that might make just a little bit of difference and the media might provide more background is the president’s name wasn’t “Trump”:

CNN reporter believes that the communist country that lied about and tried to cover-up the outbreak is now all of the sudden telling the truth about the numbers that it is reporting https://t.co/RzQTqychKJ

That’s just “peak CNN” isn’t is?

Did you try tweeting this in the original Mandarin first or would that be too obvious?

It’s a dangerous time for CNN journos to provide full context in America!

Ladies and gentlemen, one of the only people in the world who actually believes China reports accurate coronavirus numbers: Jim Acosta. https://t.co/kKXoJjSWaC pic.twitter.com/fa5apvMSRf

Hi Jim, China is run by the Chinese Communist Party. They are currently committing ethnic cleansing against Uyghurs in re-education camps, forced a one-child policy on families, and censors their people

Do you want to reconsider blindly accepting their numbers?

1. Anyone that believes these numbers from China is a useful idiot.
2. Even the WHO raised doubts in Feb.
3. The US is bad enough without making claims that are not factually accurate.
4. Let's stop the nonsense and focus on how to save lives. https://t.co/m2Y2Mfc6rf

If only.

And here’s a bonus tweet showing Jim Acosta attempting to accuse Trump of “minimizing the coronavirus”:

Another example of Trump minimizing the Coronavirus: “I just spoke to two people who had it. They never went to a doctor.”

— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) March 26, 2020

And as usual, that particular example of rampant TDS was another giant FAIL:

This is literally what medical professionals are recommending — people with mild symptoms can recover at home without burdening the health system. https://t.co/HwSaw1R1Gu

Unbelievable. THIS is CNN.
