Trump spotted wandering on White House roof

President Trump was spotted strolling along a roof at the White House on Tuesday morning, jokingly telling reporters he was planning to install "nuclear missiles" there. He first claimed he was "just taking a little walk" before saying he was looking to put "nuclear missiles" there, chuckling and moving his hand to mimic a projectile. Trump has already completed numerous construction projects at the presidential residence and said he is looking to add more, including a privately funded $200 million ballroom in the East Wing that he hopes to complete before he leaves office. He pointed out that he was walking on the west side of the White House, directly on top of the press briefing room, meaning he was surveying an area not intended for the ballroom. The real estate mogul did not respond to questions on whether he is looking to add an additional floor to the West Wing area to make additional room for his staff or reporters in the briefing room. He gestured that he may build something circular with his hands before shouting, "Anything I do is financed by me!" He also may have been checking out the recently completed Rose Garden construction that added a concrete floor to the garden grounds, as it is directly below the West Wing roof. The project was initiated to make standing in the garden comfortable for women in high heels, without their stilettos getting caught in the mud. The president has previously walked around the White House grounds several times this term to talk to construction workers and survey the area of his construction projects. He erected two 100-foot flagpoles—one on the North Lawn and one on the South Lawn—with American flags billowing from their masts and has transformed the Oval Office to include gold plating on the ceiling, the fireplace and the floor.
