President Trump spoke Tuesday of his love for cranes and “trucks of all types” during a speech in Pennsylvania on American energy and manufacturing.<\/p>\n
\u201cI love cranes. I love trucks of all types. Even when I was a little boy at 4 years old my mother would say, \u2018you love trucks,\u2019 \u201d Trump told a crowd of workers at a Shell petrochemical plant in Monaca. \u201cI do. I always loved trucks. I still do.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNothing changes,\u201d he continued. \u201cSometimes, you know, you might become president, but nothing changes. I still love trucks, especially when I look at the largest crane in the world. That\u2019s very cool.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou think I\u2019ll get to operate it?\u201d Trump asked\u00a0as the crowd erupted with laughter.<\/p>\n
Shortly after,\u00a0he joked about giving the press “a little ride” while\u00a0imitating driving a crane.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ll put the media on it and I\u2019ll give them a little ride,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Trump has repeatedly emphasized the manufacturing sector as he moves toward next year’s election, often citing his personal history as a real estate developer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
