Trump was vowing to cut costs for farmers who have been hurt by rising costs when he got distracted by a massive gold tractor.
The president, 79, was speaking on the Truman Balcony overlooking the White House grounds about cutting regulations when he looked down at the shiny machine on the lawn.
We are working very hard and very quickly to get rid of the horrible chains placed on tractor suppliers, Trump said before looking at the tractor without taking a beat.
Thats a beautiful tractor. Thats a gold tractor. Somebody had me in mind, Trump declared. Whats that all about? Thats a hell of a tractor.

(23,214 posts)Thats a good one too, red, white, and blue, but somebody really hit me with that one, he said, turning back to admire the gold one.
The president went on to deliver more in a rambling speech where he spoke further about helping farmers, but he also touched on a series of other issues popular with his base, like men in womens sports.
But the president was not done gushing about the big gold machinery below.
Do you mind if I step over here and just look at that tractor for a second? he said a few moments later in his speech, right after a farmer also gave remarks. Because I assume its a gift to me.
