Trump said on social media Thursday that he would be meeting Jeffrey Goldberg, and two of Mr Goldberg's colleagues, Ashley Parker and Michael Scherer, later in the day.

"I am doing this interview out of curiosity, and as a competition with myself, just to see if it's possible for The Atlantic to be 'truthful,'' Trump wrote.

Trump claimed the journalists were "not exactly pro-Trump writers" and questioned whether they were "capable of writing a fair story on 'TRUMP'?"

In the post, Trump said the interview would be for a story titled "The Most Consequential President of this Century". When contacted by the BBC, The Atlantic had no comment.
