Jim Acosta, Trump spar after longtime anchor leaves CNN: ‘Jim is a major loser’

USA Today–Former CNN anchor Jim Acosta and President Donald Trump won’t be cutting the cord on their long-running quarrels.

After the ex-CNN chief domestic correspondent announced his exit on air Tuesday, Trump responded on conservative social media platform Truth Social slamming his frequent critic.

“Wow, really good news! Jim Acosta, one of the worst and most dishonest reporters in journalistic history, a major sleazebag, has been relegated by CNN Fake News to the Midnight hour, ‘Death Valley,’ because of extraordinarily LOW RATINGS (and no talent!),” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Trump continued: “Word is that he wants to QUIT, and that would be even better. Jim is a major loser who will fail no matter where he ends up. Good luck Jim!”

FakeNews New York Times Munches Crow

Eating crow is a colloquial idiom, used in some English-speaking countries, that means humiliation by admitting having been proven wrong after taking a strong position. The crow is a carrion-eater that is presumably repulsive to eat in the same way that being proven wrong might be emotionally hard to swallow.
