Former CNN White House reporter turned independent DC Reflecting Pool newshound Jim Acosta often has the replies to his posts on X turned off, but not in the case of this post after it was learned that Trump press secretary Karoline Leavitt would be leaving at the end of the month. 

The ratio on this post reached a level where it eventually caught the attention of the person who posted it: 

Projection was detected!

Acosta then thought it would be a good idea to explain why the ratio on his above post isn't real.

This is genuinely hilarious:

He tried.

And as you might have guessed, Acosta's explanation for why the previous post isn't really getting ratioed is getting ratioed. 

We'll now wait for those replies to be turned back off.
