Former President Donald Trump visited a construction site on Thursday morning in New York, where he is dealing with his hush money trial.
Trump was greeted by chants cheering him on during his visit as he faces multiple legal battles while campaigning for the White House in the 2024 presidential election. The former president and presumptive Republican Party nominee also answered a few questions from the press, with Trump indicating that the construction workers with whom he was meeting had been Democrats but are now Republicans.
“There’s not a Democrat in there,” Trump told a reporter from Fox News. “These are people. Look at that building. Look what we can do. We’ve built a lot of great buildings in this city with these people, and they’ve given me great support. They’re really amazing.”
