Sunday morning, aides to Ryan called the “a fluke, not a conspiracy.”

They said that “Speaker Ryan and the president are in a great place” and that they spoke by phone for an hour Saturday.

Pirro said she hadn’t coordinated her comments with the president and had no contact with him.

Aides close to Ryan told NBC News later that Ryan and the president spoke again on Sunday.

“The president was clear his tweet had nothing to do with the speaker,” the aides said. “They are both eager to get back to work on the agenda.”
