'You NEW here, Tater?' Brian Stelter does his best to out-'Dear Diary' Acosta with weepy tweet about long-term life at home

We didn’t think it was possible but we’re starting to think Brian Stelter might eventually out-‘Dear Diary’ his CNN cohort Jim Acosta. Take this tweet for example … he does realize millions of Americans have been doing this very thing for the past month already, right? Could Tater be any more out of touch?

I don't know about you, but I'm starting to prepare for long-term life at home. More than a week or two… More than a month, as currently prescribed by the president's task force… I'm thinking in terms of months, plural, and trying to plan accordingly. https://t.co/1J1oAKRqKK

Good ol’ Brian, doing his part to make everyone panic and feel even more hopeless about what we could be facing as a country. If Hillary had won he’d probably be tweeting about how he plans to get back to work sooner than later but you know, orange man bad and stuff.

This didn’t go over quite like Brian thought it would though:

Almost like you’re not worried about losing your non essential job

Amazing how out of touch you pos hack are

If anyone is non-essential it’s the traditional media.

Good point.

Just hop in the recliner and watch Fox news all day.

That’s what he does anyway, right?

Media dolts live in an alternate reality.

When you spend so much time spinning reality it just sort of sneaks up on ya.

If @CNN would show the @POTUS press conferences on #Covid_19 in their entirety, you just might have the knowledge needed to allay the irrational fear in this comment. #JustSayin
