President Donald Trump surprised guests at the first White House tour of the year Tuesday, drawing a “USA!” chant after thanking them for visiting.Â
“I want to thank you very much for coming. The tour is so great… the First Lady worked very hard in making it perfect and I think you are going to really love it,” Trump was heard telling the group in a video shared by the White House. “And I heard you were here and I said ‘let’s stop by and say hello.’”Â
“It’s a group of very smart looking people I must say, very smart, maybe someday you’ll be here as the president, right?” Trump continued, drawing laughter from the crowd. “Somebody in this group has a chance. Have a good time, have a great tour.”Â
“You are going to get a special tour. Have fun everybody,” Trump concluded, before a “USA!” chant broke out.Â
