CNN reporter Jim Acosta was mocked on social media on Jan. 10, after posting a video showing him in front of the border wall in Texas.

In the video, the White House reporter attempted to downplay President Donald Trump’s claims of a crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border, but many noted that he may have incidentally supported the president’s argument.
