Showing Original Post only (View all)The Acosta microphone grab was staged. [View all]
It was a set up to get Acosta.
I have watched the video repeatedly.
Whoever the Trump bimbo was, she moved in with a single purpose, tried to grab the mike, actually SHE bumped Acosta's hand, and when she could not get the microphone, she suddenly dropped in to a chair and looked at Trump for a cue. like a puppet whose strings had been cut.
Watch the video a few times, try to see where she appeared from. I am convinced someone in the back cued her to storm in.
Look carefully at her body language and expression as she plopped down into the chair.
I want to go find a perhaps longer video of the press conference, but it sure looked stage to me.

That's believable; otherwise I couldn't figure out how, why, or who prodded her
