When questioned on whether he planned to meet with the Congressional Black Caucus, a group of African-American lawmakers on Capitol Hill, Trump asked Ryan if she would organize it herself.

"I'll tell you what, do you want to set up the meeting?" he said. "Do you want to set up the meeting? Are they friends of yours?

Ryan replied: "No," adding that she was "just a reporter."

"Set up the meeting," Trump continued. "Let's go, set up a meeting. I would love to meet with the black caucus. I think it's great. The Congressional Black Caucus."

After the news conference, Ryan tweeted that she is "a journalist not a convener! But thank you for answering my questions."

“Am I going to include who?” he asked.

“Are you going to include the Congressional Black Caucus,” Ryan, who is black, asked, “and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus as well as …?”

“Well, I would,” Trump interrupted. “Tell you what, do you want to set up the meeting? Do you want to set up the meeting? Are they friends of yours? Set up a meeting.”
