'I did this as a favor': Trump doubles down after attacking 'nasty' Black journalist

Former President Donald Trump blasted ABC News correspondent Rachel Scott less than a week after she asked him about racist statements during an interview at the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) Conference.

While speaking to live streamer Adin Ross on Monday, Trump recalled his performance at the conference.

"Well, I did this as a favor," Trump opined. "This was the Black journalists... And I did it because I thought it was a good thing to do."

"And they had a journalist – I don't know – I didn't know who she was, but she was nasty," he continued. "She was a terrible person."

Trump claimed Vice President Kamala Harris refused to speak at the event because "she can't answer questions."

"But I walk in, and this woman starts talking about – she talked about we have – let's get rid of the elephant in the room," he recalled. "And she starts talking about racism and every – I said, you didn't even say hello to me. And I'm doing them a favor by doing this."

Trump insisted that ABC News was "one of the worst." And he called Scott "horrible" and "nasty."

But he praised Fox News host Harris Faulkner as an "excellent" moderator.

"But I did it, and it was quite a sensation," Trump argued. "Actually, a lot of people think it was well handled."
