Jim Acosta and Brian Stelter talked about the new tape on CNN Thursday. “I cannot get over how delusional this sounds,” said Acosta. “I mean, the lies. It’s just nuts.

It sounds delusional to listen to what he is saying.”

They are a challenge to the audience. Lies on this level, delusions on this level, you know, you’re daring people not to believe their eyes and own ears and daring people to deny what they know them to be true.”

Acosta closed the segment remarking, “Yeah. He’s inviting his supporters to go and live in this cult-like alternate reality that he inhabits.”

The constant flow of stories about Trump seem to be getting to him. He recently released a statement calling them fake news. But in this case, the proof is in the tape.
