Said to another reporter who stood up after he asked the crowd if he should give Jim Acosta more time. (He might have said "more rope" -- it was muffled.)

but Jim Acosta was talking, he's from CNN and Trump enjoys calling him a liar and mocking CNN as fake news. So that's the context. Then Trump told Acosta to sit down and shut up repeatedly (after repeated non-credible denials)

Then we couldn't stand to watch it anymore. Heil trump, is what trump is saying, or else.
You'll love it. Trust me.
