'LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL'! How did Jim Acosta tell this WHOPPER with a straight face? [video]

Earlier this week, Jim Acosta took his act to Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show. Because of course he did.

And if you thought he’d find a way to out-hack himself for Kimmel, well, come and collect your prize:

Vid: @JimmyKimmel: “I love watching you bust their balls.” @CNN’s Jim @Acosta: “I wear it as a badge of honor. I’m hated by the best people, or the worst people….As FDR once said, ‘I welcome their hatred.’…When I covered @BarackObama, I was just as tough on him.” #Kimmel #TTT pic.twitter.com/9l1qAPiM4I

If anyone needs us, we’ll be changing our underwear. Because we just peed ourselves.

Who does he think he’s fooling?

No idea, but it certainly isn’t us. Or anyone who’s watched him play journalist on the teevee.
