Jim Acosta has become such a punchline on social media, he is basically the meme that says, "Get you someone who looks at you like this." Except in Acosta's case, the meme would just be a picture of him staring at himself in the mirror.
Yesterday, the intrepid, unemployed "journalist" took a short break from his duties staking out the Reflecting Pool and Kennedy Center in order to join a No Kings rally in Washington, D.C.
Wait ... they're still doing those?
Sadly, they are. But the only thing sadder than the demographics of the average No Kings gathering is the fact that this one decided to hand Acosta a microphone for a few minutes.
Big mistake. Of course, Acosta took the opportunity to lecture the sparse, mostly geriatric crowd about his favorite subject: Jim Acosta.
Jim Acosta speaking at No Kings. He says as a member of the press, he's used to covering these kinds of events, but not giving his opinion. HAHAHAHA https://t.co/cYSzXUj2Jf

Yes, if there's one thing we know about Acosta's now-defunct career as a reporter, it's that he NEVER gave anyone his opinion.
And if you believe that one, we have some beachfront property in Omaha, Nebraska, for sale.
We also enjoyed Acosta talking about how he usually attends events on the press riser ... even though he is no longer a member of the press and never will be again.
Democrat activist Jim Acosta, who spouts his opinions daily, lies to a crowd of fellow Dems that he’s not used to giving his opinion.

There were a couple of other lies in there, as well. Such as Acosta describing himself as an American first and saying that he often "makes jokes" about Donald Trump.
Sure, he's obsessed with the Bad Orange Man who lives in his head rent-free, but jokes?
Never heard a single one.
Thanks. HaaaaaHAAAHAHHHGaaaaa!!!! He’s stepping out. Look at that rebel!

Please don't give him any ideas.
He'll show up at the next No Kings rally with a leather jacket, dyed hair, a septum ring, and a bunch of tattoos displaying how much he hates the President.
And we really do not need to see that. Ever.
What a sad, pathetic little guy Jim Acosta is.

I almost feel bad for him.
Almost.
Just think of how many times he practiced this speech in his bathroom mirror with a hairbrush as his microphone.
Then you'll REALLY feel bad for him. Almost.
President Trump has turned this guy inside out. A raging neurotic with stage four Trump derangement syndrome..

There should be a picture of Acosta in the DSM 5.
Except he'd probably frame it and put it on his bedside table.
I don't think Jim realizes what he has just done here. pic.twitter.com/vo3e7em1zO

Does he ever?
Jim Acosta. Because our derangement is mainstream.

It truly is worthy of pausing and taking note.
The legacy media will employ anyone, anyone at all, who hates Trump and hates America.
And Acosta is too pathetic for even them.
He’s gotten a little chunky sitting behind his substack all day

Well, he doesn't have that cushy CNN salary and health plan to pay for his GLP-1s.
Maybe he wants to run for president like his buddy Don Lemon 😝they are legends in their own minds.

That would be extremely dangerous.
Every Twitchy writer might die from our sides splitting in twain.

There it is. The single most indelible image of Acosta's career as a "journalist," not giving his opinion.
Throwing a tantrum and fighting a young woman in the White House.
We would say that Acosta should be embarrassed every time he sees that picture, but, knowing him, he probably has that one framed on his bedside table as well.
