Jim Acosta: Trump Can't Take the Heat

And maybe one day the mystery will be solved, the Scooby-Doo mystery will be solved, and they'll pull the head off of whoever, and it'll be old man Withers from the Haunted Amusement Park. But to me, I just don't get it. And maybe we're all going to figure this out one day, why Donald Trump is just... Always partial to Vladimir Putin at every turn.

And the sad state of affairs in all of this is that the Ukrainians have been courageously fighting for the survival of their country. I remember speaking with a special forces soldier on one of my shows a couple of years ago, and she brought me a metal coin saying, that was made from the metal of a Russian tank that was blown up in one of the battles over there.

And then she was later almost killed in an IED explosion. I've met a couple of fighter pilots. Their code names were Moonfish and Juice. They couldn't give their real names. They've both since died since I interviewed them. And it's just the tremendous toll that this country has gone through.

And to think that the United States of America is just going to throw them to the lions, to me, is disgraceful. And it's going to be something I think this country and all of us are going to regret for many, many years. And this just gets too... you know, trying to put out the defense shield for Trump 2.0 in Europe, which is what they're trying to do right now.

Okay. Earlier when you said that you have not underestimated ISIS's abilities, this is an organization that you once described as a JV team that evolved into a force that is now occupied territory in Iraq and Syria and is now able to use that safe haven to launch attacks in other parts of the world. How is that not underestimating their capabilities and how is that contained quite frankly.
