The presidential candidate told the news anchor to “Go back to Univision” before kicking him out of the press conference. The anchor was later allowed to return.
Donald Trump kicked Univision's Jorge Ramos out of a press conference Tuesday when the well-known journalist asked the presidential candidate about his comments on immigration.

Ramos, who might be considered the best-known journalist in Spanish-language news media, stood up and began asking questions at the beginning of the press conference, but Trump refused to answer and told the reporter to "sit down."
Ramos continued asking questions when Trump told him to, "Go back to Univision."
Trump then looked to his left and said, "Go ahead" before a security guard walked toward the reporter and escorted him out.
Ramos, who has anchored Univision's leading newscast, Fusion's AMERICA with Jorge Ramos, and hosts a Meet The Press-style political show on Univision called Al Punto, was then removed from the press conference.
The host returned to the press conference about five minutes later, where Ramos asked the presidential candidate about his comments on birthright citizenship, building a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, and deporting millions of undocumented immigrants.
"You know how many Latinos, you know how many Hispanics are working for me," Trump asked Ramos. "They love me."
The two went back and forth for a few minutes, with Ramos often disputing Trump's comments.
"Let me tell you, we're going to do it in a very humane fashion," Trump said about deporting undocumented immigrants. "Believe me, I have a more humane heart than you do."
Despite kicking Ramos out, Trump ended the back-and-forth by telling the anchor, "You and I, we'll talk."
