CNN reporter Jim Acosta is again becoming part of the story in Texas after posting a video of himself walking along the border.
??And President Trump is joining in the chorus of people mocking Acosta for what he said.
??“As were walking along here were not seeing any imminent danger and no migrant trying to rush toward this fence here in the McCallen, Texas area.” ??He continued to post videos of his walk along the border including this one that prompted a response from Trump.
??“Now, talking to folks, there are migrants that come through this area but a lot of the residents we talk to say this is a very safe area.” ??Trump retweeted the video simply with the caption, “Dear Diary....” ??The President’s son, Don Jr, also chiming in, “Of course you don’t Jim.
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!!” ??Trump was in Texas visiting the border and again called the situation at the border a national security and humanitarian crisis.
??He has repeatedly threatened to use emergency powers to build the wall instead of going through Congress.
??All of this comes as the partial government shutdown continues into its third week??
