Kellyanne Conway struggles to name African-Americans in White House

Washington (CNN)Kellyanne Conway, a counselor to President Donald Trump, struggled on Sunday to name an African-American person in a prominent White House role.

Conway was asked on ABC's "This Week" to name the most prominent West Wing staffer to Trump after the departure of Omarosa Manigault Newman, a former Apprentice star whose departure from the White House was announced late last year.
Conway initially said the anchor, Jon Karl, was "not covering" Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Ben Carson, whom she said Trump works with "every day," but when pressed on a White House staffer, she pointed to someone who she said was in the Executive Office of the President.

"We have Ja'Ron, who's done a fabulous job, been very involved with -- he's been very involved with Jared Kushner and President Trump on prison reform from the beginning," Conway said. "He's been there from the beginning. He worked with Omarosa and others."

Her boss might have named Frederick Douglass as the highest ranking AA serving in the White House.
