President Donald Trump taunted Jim Acosta on Saturday after the CNN journalist returned to the beat after promoting his book.
Acosta asked if Trump purposely ignored a journalist’s question about the death of Jamal Khashoggi during a meeting with Saudi crown prince Mohammed bin Salman because he was afraid of offending him.
“No, not at all,” Trump replied. “I don’t really care about offending people, I sort of thought you’d know that.”
“By the way, congratulations, I understand your book, is it doing well?” Trump added.
“It’s doing very well Mr. President,” Acosta replied.

“I’ll get you an autographed copy,” Acosta continued.
