Trump Plays Tour Guide and Enjoys His Role as Chief Builder of the White House
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
U.S. President Donald Trump took on the role of tour guide at the White House on Wednesday, showcasing the helipad being built on the lawn before bending down to sign a piece and boasting about the ballroom that is being rushed to completion despite legal challenges. For several uninterrupted minutes, Trump lavished praise on the granite being installed and claimed that the helicopter landing area would leave 'very impressed' foreign leaders, including Chinese President Xi Jinping, who is set to visit Washington next month. At times, he sounded almost like a construction manager, extolling the granite in front of the asphalt with meticulous detail and pointing out to the reporters he brought along that the stone could withstand 35,000 pounds per square inch of pressure. 'That’s a stone that, if you took a hammer and started hammering right now, all day long, you wouldn’t see a mark on it, literally, that’s the kind of power it has,' Trump said, sometimes straining to be heard over the hum of ongoing work behind him.
