Video of the Day: CNN Propagandist Jim Acosta Says Trump Sounds Like ‘Baghdad Bob’ — Gets Hammered By Trump Jr.

While speaking with Wolf Blitzer, CNN propagandist Jim Acosta did his bit to continue peddling Communist Chinese propaganda, saying that President Trump sounds like “Baghdad Bob,” Saddam Hussein’s chief propagandist during the Iraq war.

Here’s video as posted by Newsbusters:

Here’s his comments, as posted by Newsbusters:

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

And Wolf, it just comes to mind what we saw yesterday during the briefing, that Monday meltdown, when he played that propaganda video in the white house briefing room, these briefings all together are — are coming across like something out of Baghdad Bob. Baghdad Bob being the Iraqi military official who was claiming during the Iraq War that the United States was not making their way into the Iraqi capital. The President is sounding like very Baghdad Bob-like in the way that he’s assigning blame to everybody but himself. He is not taking any responsibility for this.

One of the things he just said a few moments ago about the World Health Organization. I’ll just read you the quote. He said it would have been so easy to be truthful. That was an exact quote from the President and yet this a President who, time and again throughout this crisis, has been playing fast and loose about the facts, lying about things, for example, saying that the Obama administration left the cupboards bare when they left office in 2017.

Curtis Houck noted:

So, three thoughts on the amount of shameless psychobabble. First, no word on whether Acosta was still licking his wounds from his embarrassing display at the March 10 briefing.

Second, perhaps CNN isn’t the right network to level any Baghdad Bob analogies considering CNN’s despicable behavior covering for the Saddam Hussein regime while they held down a Baghdad bureau.

And third, it should be stated that this hot take came from the same network that downplayed the virus from January to early February because it conflicted with the impeachment trial and still held its annual upfront event to a crowd of hundreds on March 5.

Acosta also posted this to Twitter:

Prompting Donald Trump Jr., to note:

Indeed, since CNN now appears to be the Chinese “News” Network
