White House Press Pool Reports @WHPressPool - Out-of-town pool report #5 - Trump remarks start
Trump took the stage at 1.33pm to ‘God Bless the USA” (which played out to the end) and received a standing ovation.
“Courtesy of the Red White and Blue” by Toby Keith had played as the 16 Medal of Honor recipients filed in, to applause from the audience, before remarks by the museum director.
The younger group by the way are “Global War on Terrorism” Medal of Honor recipients, per WH.
Remarks are being carried live on WH YouTube and other channels as usual.

White House Press Pool Reports @WHPressPool - Out-of-town pool report #4 - medal recipients / remarks coming
Trump spoke to each of the medal recipients in turn. It was hard to hear the conversations although Trump did say he liked the Stars and Stripes socks of one veteran in a wheelchair.
Trump then posed for pictures with them, standing behind them with thumbs up and a grin.
“Good music,” he said as “You’ll never walk alone” played over the sound system.
Trump then said “You’re strong. Strong as hell” and talked about an inaudible number of “trillion” in investment. It wasn’t clear what investment he meant. Will try to get a full quote.
He briefly paused to say hello to what he called his media “friends” while being shown a display unit featuring a US flag, and then quickly moved on.
