Wow!
CNN is pitching an entirely different narrative, and claiming that the White House is falsely accusing Acosta of putting his hands on the woman that tried to grab the mic.
What I saw was a blow-hard reporter flat out disregarding a direct order from the President of the United States during an official state function. And arguing with him about it!
Acosta wasn't in charge of that press conference, and had no business trying to dominate the conversation. He was given an opportunity to ask the President a question, and instead of asking a question Acosta tried to bait Trump into saying something disagreeable about last weeks news.
I'm amazed that the exchange was even allowed to go on for so long. As soon as Trump said "Put down the mic", and Acosta refused to comply, Trump could have gotten away with having security forcibly remove him.
