#1 Trump and Melonia win these law suits using good, very expensive lawyers so no counter suit is required. Their advïsary having to pay their ĺegal costs bancrupts the stupid plaintifs.

#3 Yeah... he committed assault, so their "defense" is to file a civil suit? He's lucky they didn't file criminal charges against him.

#4 I've seen the video and I have a hard time calling that assault. But wrestling an intern for the mic is definitely rude behavior and Acosta deserves to be spanked.

It will be amusing to see what legal theory CNN comes up with when/if they file suit. It's not like the White House kicked out *all* their lying scumbag reporters.

If I were the White House, I'd set up a private room for Acosta with snacks, sugary drinks and his own personal live video feed so he can watch the press conferences and not annoy the adults.

#5 I wished that when he blocked her reach, she had lost her balance and fell down and had to be carried out of the room (not injured of course), just carried out.

#6 The White House should respond by blocking all CNN reporters.
