CNN’s Jim Acosta has proven that he really enjoys being a center of attention at President Trump’s press conferences, and that’s one reason he’s really disappointed that there was no end-of-year presser after the signing of the tax bill:
No surprise Trump did not hold year end news conf. Q's he avoided:
1. Threatening US allies at UN? 2. How would tax plan benefit you? 3. Regret endorsing accused child molester? 4. Pledge you won't fire Mueller? 5. Will you deport Dreamers? 6. Where's your health care plan?— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) December 22, 2017
Not only did Trump skip tradition of year end WH news conf. He continued to bash media (well…except one fav news outlet) en route to Mar-a-Lago. https://t.co/eVhqoE6fEH

Aides were worried about news conf stepping on tax cut message. But that’s not why presidents take questions from press. It’s about agreeing to the principle that you are accountable to the people. https://t.co/LDKwUjx0Yh

He must enjoy being called part of “fake news” media.
Sorry you didn't get to perform for the cameras. You probably can still ask these questions to the WH Communications Office, should you really care about the answers. https://t.co/hJ6KUvgVzY

Why he facilitates hezbola drug and arms protection
Why he collude's with corrupt deep state to spy on political opponents
Why he lied to Americans keep your doctor
Why he lied about video on Bengazi
Why he sealed https://t.co/8c7KpdI49D— Duke the (@GradyHughes4) December 22, 2017

The lack of self-awareness here never ceases to amaze. https://t.co/RIgr0udZaV

Why oh why would Trump still be referring to CNN as “fake news”? Oh, wait…
