CNN’s Jim Acosta got tag-teamed by Donald Trump Jr. and his dad, President Trump, after posting a laughable video of himself near a Burger King along the US-Mexico border in McAllen, Texas.
Acosta remarked in the Twitter video that the area is relatively safe despite the fact that it borders Mexico.
He was trying to debunk the statements made by President Trump and Border Patrol officials that a border wall is necessary to prevent the daily onslaught of illegal aliens, illicit drugs, and human smugglers.
“I don’t see anything resembling a national emergency situation,” Acosta claimed, while running his tiny hand along the border fence.
For the record, no one cares that Jimbo has tiny man-child hands, but we pointed it out because leftists constantly mock President Trump’s hands.
I found some steel slats down on the border. But I don’t see anything resembling a national emergency situation.. at least not in the McAllen TX area of the border where Trump will be today. pic.twitter.com/KRoLdszLUu

Acosta was probably not aware that the time stamp of his tweet indicated that he was near a Burger King.
Accordingly, it’s not surprising that the area Jim selectively filmed is safer than other unfenced areas along the US-Mexico border, where an estimated 5,000 illegal aliens cross every day, according to Border Patrol.
Donald Trump Jr. and countless other Twitter users mocked Acosta, saying he’s making President Trump’s point that a border wall works to keep areas along the US-Mexico border safe.
“Of course you don’t [see a national emergency situation there],” Don Jr. tweeted. “That’s because walls work. Thanks for your help proving Donald Trump’s point and simultaneously creating one of the best self-own videos ever!!!”
Of course you don’t Jim. That’s because walls work. Thanks for your help proving @realDonaldTrump’s point and simultaneously creating one of the best self-own videos ever!!! https://t.co/QVXsJTwFh8

Acosta clapped back by saying, “You guys seem to be saying the current measures in place are working.”
It’s a little strange Don. You guys seem to be saying the current measures in place are working. Does that mean your dad should reopen the government and get federal employees back to work? #byebye https://t.co/UY0NMye8BO

Don Jr. retorted: “The reason why all of Twitter has been mocking you today is because you were at a part of the border WITH A WALL. So yes, of course it was working. Replicate that across the border and we’ll all be safer.”
I know this might be hard for you to comprehend Jimbo, but the reason why all of Twitter has been mocking you today is because you were at a part of the border WITH A WALL. So yes, of course it was working. Replicate that across the border & we’ll all be safer. #RealNews #ByeBye https://t.co/BtdJ3GcxSV

An hour later, President Trump snarked at Acosta by sarcastically writing, “Dear Diary…”

The Daily Wire’s Ryan Saavedra explained the comical origins of the “Dear Diary” meme.
Best part about this tweet is that it guarantees people are going to tweet "dear diary" at Acosta hundreds of times per day for years
Acosta hates the term so much that he messaged someone who tweeted that at him and told him "F**k you"…and then lied about it, as is CNN's way pic.twitter.com/UDEqfehRtJ

Here’s how the “Dear Diary” meme got started. Now, it will follow Acosta for the rest of his career.

Acosta responded by messaging him: "F*ck you."

Jim Acosta’s showboating antics are well-documented, as are CNN’s bogus attacks on President Trump.
As BizPac Review reported, a CNN producer admitted in 2017 that the anti-Trump network has been relentlessly pushing the sham “Russia collusion” narrative in a shameless bid for ratings.
The producer confessed that CNN has no proof of Russian collusion, but whenever they stop bashing Trump, their ratings tumble.
The Russia collusion hoax is the real “manufactured crisis.”

This is the only wall that Trump supporters would like to see Jim Acosta near.

While the mainstream media repeat the Democrat talking point that the border crisis is “manufactured,” Border Patrol agents on the ground say there is a real crisis.
Even Barack Obama’s Border Patrol chief Mark Morgan blasted the fake-news media coverage: “Men and women are risking their lives every day and apprehending rapists, murderers, pedophiles, other violent offenders and gang members. That’s not manufactured. That is real.”
