White House Press Pool Reports @WHPressPool - In-town pool report #5: Trump gaggle quotes
After showing the pool the new helipad and signing the stone, Trump gaggled with reporters for a few minutes on the South Lawn, standing behind the stone.
On if he’s exchanging written letters with Kim Jong Un: “I can't tell you that. But I get along with him great. He has 57 very powerful nuclear weapons. He's gonna be fine.”
On Canada trade deal: “We've come to a deal with Canada…Canada was charging us tremendous tariffs. We no longer have any tariffs…it's all subject to the finalization of documents"
On Iran: “Right now I think the situation is so good“
On helipad, he said it would be ready in time for Xi’s upcoming visit to the White House.
“This will be much better for state arrivals. And in fact, instead of being on grass, now they'll be using that almost like a table. They can have events on it. They can have people go there for cocktails and then walk to the ballroom after that's finished.”
On the Supreme Court possibly ruling against his ballroom: "We hope that doesn't happen. I can't imagine it happening.”
On his ballroom: "It's going to have a drone-proof roof. And you're going to have on top of the roof drones, many drones, which will protect Washington DC and will protect the White House. Very important."
