AC goes hot on throttle

I just got a 2005 MCS, this is my first post, I have the car back into the used dealer right now dealing with some other problems, but this is one I dont know if its a mini thing or actually a problem.

with the AC on, or on AUTO, if I give it some gas at low speed or from a stop, the AC blows hot for a short time (a few seconds) and then cools back down.

I'm not sure it the car is prioritizing the acceleration and shutting off the AC compressor or if there is something wrong with my climate control stuff.

any insight in appreciated.
