CNN’s Acosta: Trump Thinks I’m ‘Very Professional,’ Criticism Of Me An ‘Act’

CNN’s Jim Acosta claimed on Friday that he has gotten phone calls from President Donald Trump’s aides who secretly tell him that the president believes that he is “very professional,” and that the president’s public attacks on Acosta was just part of “an act” that the president does.

Appearing on the Canadian news show, “The Agenda with Steve Paikin,” Acosta made the remarks claiming that Trump’s intense criticism of news organizations and journalists who are dishonest or heavily biased was all just “an act.”
