CNN’s Jim Acosta is in love… with Jim Acosta. The Trump hating White House correspondent has just released a new book (which I will not be reading) and he held a massive book signing event in Arlington, Virginia.
The crowds were enormous and the line for his coveted signature went for blocks.
Just kidding.
Actually, NO ONE EVEN SHOWED UP! LMAO!!!!!!!!!!

CNN reporter Jim Acosta attacks President Donald Trump around the clock as a White House correspondent, but he’s more than happy to profit from it.
In a tone-deaf Twitter post, Acosta gleefully tweeted photos of himself at a book signing in Arlington, Virginia.
The title of Acosta’s book — “The Enemy of the People — was stolen directly from President Trump, who slammed the fake news media as the “enemy of the people” for spreading lies meant to gaslight them.
To be clear, President Trump never called the media the “enemy of the people.” That moniker was directed at the fake-news shills who intentionally promote false narratives.
If you’re a member of the media and you take offense to Trump calling fake news “the enemy of the people,” then you just outed yourself as a lying hack.
What’s hilarious is that Acosta was autographing a huge pile of his books in what appeared to be an empty book store. Notably, there were no fans clamoring around him, eager to meet him.
