Crybaby Jim Acosta of CNN is back at it. He posted on Twitter about the upcoming confirmation vote for Supreme Court nomination Brett Kavanaugh. Someone was quick to call out Acosta for crying about his usual liberal talking points. Then Acosta freaked out and accused the GOP of "bullying the press." He cried, "Can't you guys win gracefully?"
This response was when Acosta was replying to a former Mitch McConnell staffer and Paul Ryan spokesman.
Oddly, @Acosta felt the need to delete this tweet just now. Can’t “you guys” win gracefully?
Neither side is being graceful at the moment, making this sound partisan. Report the other side and you may receive a better response to your harmful rhetoric. This isn’t journalism. pic.twitter.com/uOk5z3MiOH

First it was Don Stewart Acosta tangled with. Stewart, also known as "Stew," is the Deputy Chief of Staff to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.
Heads up: I think PFAW hacked your account.

After that Jim did what he does best: cry.
More bashing the press by those in power. First Amendment getting you down Stew?
— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) October 5, 2018
Nope, in fact I was exercising my First Amendment rights.
You get to express opinions; I get to express opinions. That's how it works.
Thanks for the RT.— STEW (#StewMeetsDogs) ??? ⚾️ (@StewSays) October 5, 2018
Awww Stew... I get it. Reporting you don't like gets labeled "opinion." Hey buddy.. I've been called worse.

Then Zack Roday stepped in. This is what really triggered Acosta.
this is what getting owned looks like (Stew owned you, Jim)

This tweet is what triggered Jim to whine and delete: “It’s bullying the press. And it’s shameful. My goodness. Can’t you guys win gracefully?”
After deleting the tweet, he then tweeted this:
No.. this is what bullying the press looks like. And it's shameful. My goodness. You guys had a big win today. Can't you win gracefully?
