President Donald Trump<\/a> tested out the new outdoor speakers outside the freshly remodeled Rose Garden at the White House<\/a>, playing some of his favorite hits that echoed beyond the White House driveway.<\/p>\n

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt<\/a> brought reporters out into the garden to witness the event.<\/p>\n

The president initially sparked interest after the familiar peals of Lee Greenwood’s God Bless the USA began, followed by Pavarotti’s ‘Nessun dorma,’ Elvis Presley’s ‘Are You Lonesome Tonight’ and Joe Cocker’s ‘You Are So Beautiful.’<\/p>\n

Trump emerged from the Oval Office and pumped his fist as the music played, and pointed at the renovated garden.<\/p>\n

The music continued throughout the afternoon, including some of his favorites like ‘YMCA’ by the Village People.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘The president wanted me to let all of you know that he is testing the speakers for what will be the best event in the history of the White House,’ Leavitt said, previewing a future event to be determined in the upcoming days.<\/p>\n

She said the president was controlling the music from inside the Oval Office on his iPad<\/a> while also conducting meetings.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Leavitt added that Trump even hinted that the first White House party on the new patio would be for the press.<\/p>\n

‘He said: “Maybe we’ll do that,”‘ Leavitt teased.<\/p>\n

Leavitt confirmed the yellow striped umbrellas were the same as those on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago, Florida, estate.<\/p>\n

‘They are literally the umbrellas from Mar-a-Lago,’ she said\u00a0<\/p>\n

When asked if First Lady Melania Trump was pleased with the renovation, Leavitt replied, ‘I believe so.’<\/p>\n

She noted that the first lady’s Rose Garden renovations from Trump’s first term were ‘untouched.’<\/p>\n

Leavitt confirmed the president’s plans to spend time in Bedminster for August had been canceled, when typically renovations are conducted at the White House.<\/p>\n

‘This is normally the time when the president goes on vacation, but not this president,’ she said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘There were discussions about him working from Bedminster for a couple of weeks, but he decided against it.’<\/p>\n

She said the president was focused on remaining in Washington, DC and getting a peace deal in Ukraine.<\/p>\n

‘He’s a man on a mission. He wants to move. Get things done quickly,’ she said. ‘He wants to strike when the iron is hot.’<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
