CNN reporter Jim Acosta’s exchange with President Donald Trump wasn’t the only fiery flare-up between the president and the press at Wednesday’s press conference.

Reporter April Ryan was also shot down by the president during an exchange over a question.

“It was a real question then he proceeds to tell me I’m rude, I’m hostile,” she said on “The View” Thursday.

Ryan, who is the White House Correspondent and Washington bureau chief for American Urban Radio Networks, said that she shouted a question about voter suppression which Trump then responded to, which she took as an opening to continue.

“As a reporter who’s been doing this for 21 years, you want access,” she told the show’s co-hosts. “You want ask to your question, so there was a moment where the president had finished answering a question and he was finding someone to call on for the next time. There was pregnant moment, that pregnant pause that I lobbed a question in, and he responded.”
