Jim Acosta discovers golden statue of Trump in ‘ground breaking’ report from Florida golf resort

Jim Acosta was roasted after “brave” reporting on his search for the golden statue of President Donald Trump at a Florida golf course.

The former CNN host was mocked on social media after posting a clip of himself in the not-so-dangerous environment, evidently doing some real journalism as he announced, “We found it.”

“The 22 foot golden statue of Donald Trump at his Doral Golf Course in Florida. It’s very shiny. Not exactly life-like. But very North Korea feeling for sure,” Acosta’s caption read.

This is ground breaking reporting.

Thanks for your bravery. https://t.co/ocUlPAVCmB

“I spoke to the sculptor about this, and he told us quite the story about how this came into existence,” Acosta “reported” in his video clip.

“Apparently, they had to slim it down; that was part of the process. They got rid of the turkey neck – that was also part of the process,” he claimed. “But it’s leaving me with some questions here, like, why are we building a new ballroom at the White House? Why are we painting the reflecting pool blue? Why are we building a giant arch when he’s got one of these right here?”

Acosta’s ridiculous take was immediately roasted on X, where one user noted, “This is what failed journalism looks like.”

Stunning and brave

We all know that if Jim had the money, he’d erect a statue of himself in a heartbeat and title it “Defender of Journalism,” or something equally vainglorious. pic.twitter.com/z3x9RwA98J

Many others pointed out how the intrepid investigative reporter also limited who could reply to his post on X.

Dear Diary
I’ve turned off comments so people don’t make fun of me.

BTW, I wish I could have a statue of me like that in front of CNN. https://t.co/0RQ60tWDtJ

I’m surprised he could tear himself away from a mirror to go outside. https://t.co/i8YArZAgut pic.twitter.com/TqhC1bRLqy

Acosta seems to still be suffering from his advanced case of Trump Dearngement Syndrome, and his latest pursuit in search of the golden statur proved he may be beyond help.

Acosta has one of the most severe cases of TDS that I’ve ever seen. Trump lives inside his head 24/7. Jim can’t shake Trump out of his consciousness. Lost his job because of it. His life revolves around Trump. Jim needs help but he won’t get it. Needs a fix. Pray for his soul.

You’re obsessed with Donald Trump. It’s bizarre. You are a weirdo.

Jim Acosta treating a publicly visible golf-course statue like a covert intelligence breakthrough does help explain the failure to report on Biden’s decline.

That and his obvious bias. But this dude is just terrible at his job.
