    CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta, best known for his role as a provocateur in the press pool, interrupted the historic summit between President Donald Trump and North Korean Dictator Kim Jong-un by shouting questions at the president.

    "Mr. President, did we agree to denuclearize?" Acosta shouted as Trump was signing a document.

    Moments later, after Trump answered, Acosta shouted another question, asking, "Did you talk about Otto Warmbier, sir?"

    That was not the only moment during the summit that Acosta made it about himself as he desperately sought attention.

    Earlier in the day, Acosta yelled questions at Trump from a significant distance away, shouting, "Mr. President, how is the meeting going so far, sir? Any progress, Mr. President?"

    After getting no response, Acosta continued, shouting, "Mr. Kim will you give up your nuclear weapons, sir?"

    Trump tells me he has an "excellent relationship" with Kim Jong Un at #TrumpKimSummit.
