God bless poor Jim Acosta.
Trying to do his job last night at a Trump rally, the Donald's followers stood behind the CNN journalist chanting "CNN sucks!" and giving rude gestures.
Childish and idiotic.
And one of these Trumper fools is going to hurt a journalist soon, mark my words.

Acosta, who is an absolute pro by the way, responded to the attacks via Twitter writing, "Just a sample of the sad scene we faced at the Trump rally in Tampa. I’m very worried that the hostility whipped up by Trump and some in conservative media will result in somebody getting hurt. We should not treat our fellow Americans this way. The press is not the enemy."

Mind you, these are the same people who cheered when Donald Trump erroneously told the crowd you have to have an ID to buy groceries (you don't) in an attempt to justify voter ID laws that target minorities disproportionately.
