"There is no greater thrill than to join you at the world center of racing for the 62nd Daytona 500 -- so exciting," Trump said in opening remarks to the crowd."To all of the drivers, technicians and pit crews today here today, good luck and may the best team win. God bless you, God bless our military, God bless our veterans and God bless America. Have a great race.
Multiple people associated with NASCAR, manufacturers and race teams made versions of the same joke repeatedly over the past two days, saying that"it's starting to feel more like a race is breaking out at a Trump rally than the other way around."The tone in which the joke was delivered varied, according to CNN's Dianne Gallagher.
The ugly Americans😊
What did this cost the taxpayers
🤮
And then it rained like hell was about to freeze over.
There’s your sign...
🙄
And how is this breaking news?
Way cool
Damn do you need that much security for one fucking lap? 😂
“We Really Don’t Care “ Fake Lives of tRump Regime!
The purported impact gets lost with the entourage in tow,why did all those other vehicles have to follow, not like they were protecting him or anything. What a waste!
That's awesome!
Always has to be about him!
Waste of tax payers money
Hanging with the homies, I see.
Waste of tax payer dollars
I like CNN when they post true...positive news about our President.
What a great thing and the fans enjoyed it
What a circus
Unlike all the money the Dems have spent on the russian hoax. Fighting the appointment of Kavanaugh, Impeachment and oh ya, their salaries and pensions for doing jack s**t. 1 other thing Pelosi and her use of govt transportation
dacullington I’m sorry you decided to cover his insane indulgence. Instead of covering the damage his so called Presidency is doing. CNN there in Baghdad the night the bombing started. Covering it live in 1991. WOW! You’ve come to this new low. Promoting a TIN POT CHEAP ASS DICTATOR. Shame!
Yes, and just like everything Trump touches, the race ended badly with rain today! He jinxed the Daytona 500!👎😠.
This guy knows how to win votes smh
Pure class. Its so nice to finely have a president thats actually for the people and accurately represents this great nation. Thank God for President Trump and our beautiful first lady!
The drivers would never pass him for fear of being hanged for treason.
and that's why I watch f1... Daytona fans are mostly trump supporters. round and round...
More like “cue the rain”!
POTUS and FLOTUS got a Massive welcome in Daytona. So many Americans in one spot is a beautiful thing. The “4 more years” and “USA” chants were awesome . Best President ever🇺🇸
🤢🤮
He needed to appeal to his base, I guess.
Beautiful!
Damn, CNN so glad there’s no other breaking news in the world...Also, surprised Trump was able to complete that statement w/o veering course. “Drivers, start, not like those liberal snowflake drivers, amiright? They tried to hold me down but if the glove doesn’t fit, anyway, go!”
Gee if he only could get the be president down! As he is now none as Mr. On Vacation !!!!realDonaldTrump, Limbaugh, Hannity, bloomburg, tonightshow
Nothing more American or greater than seeing this. I'm so proud to be an American. Thank you President Trump!
Trump is so old he had his left blinker on the entire time, and drove 5 miles below the speed limit.
Greatest President Ever!
This is such a Politicical Stunt.
Largest pack of trailer trash since that inauguration with “millions of people”🤡
4 MORE YEARS!
The king of going in circles 💯
“No body, in the history of cars, has said Start Your Engines better than me. No one knows more about racing cars than me. It’s true.” - Impeached Prez Don “The Jaun” Trump
Oh I see. I knew he wouldn’t fit in a race car. BarkingCarnivalClown
Why is this even referred to as “Breaking News”
All that was missing from Trump's low speed lap was a White Bronco (and Al Cowlings) YouKnowWhoIam
PRESIDENTS DAY. Recognizing those Impeached. 1864 - Andrew Jackson 1998 - Bill Clinton 2019 - Donald Trump
Why is this “breaking news”
Congratulations to President Trump on his amazing win at Daytona 500. Such a big win. The crowds loved him, and went crazy when he won the race after just one lap. I told the President that the organisers will rename it the Trump 5000 in his honor. We are winning so BIG.
CNN cant even get this straight. Start your engines came first then took a lap. DAAAA!
BarackObama and Big Mike hated NASCAR fans. Thank God for the realDonaldTrump.
I was wondering how He would get into one ANY of those cars. Ha he would never. Let him try to go around the top track in his beast.
Big deal who cares
Disgusting.
Then he left!
What a disgrace.
Boo
And as usual, black clouds, rain and disappointment followed him, ruined a perfectly good event.
Daytona 500 cancelled! The race will commence Monday At 4pm. At least 45 will not be a story.
Why is our money paying for this BS, VOTE this fool out of office, Get Out And VOTE
I’m not a racing fan, but that’s very cool.
He was actually running rings around the Democrats and fake news like CNN.
AvetMag Love this. No problem spending my tax dollars on this.
This guy checking all the boxes. Can’t blame him
Can we please, officially, stop calling NASCAR drivers athletes now that Trump did the same thing they do?
TOSSER
Did I buy the gas for this or did the trump campaign.
Fuck DT doe he likes it up the ass
🤮
What a joke lol
I thought for sure the “chosen”’one would have commanded better weather 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Awesome President!
Fake news will be triggered by this somehow
Why didn't Obama do this as Prez? No license? Trump2020 4MoreYears
😳😏He coulda just Teeeted it; and save us taxpayers some $$🤦🏻♀️🙄
Dear Democrats. Misery will encourage you to hate on people and mistake it for happiness. Be self-aware and recognize your urge to put others down is not coming from a healthy place. Go inward, get to the root of your pain and transform the emotion to something more empowering.
That’s y it’s raining!!
IndyCar should have copyrighted that statement!!! Since when did CRASHCAR start copying Indy?
this is 'Breaking News' ?
Look at all the money wasted today that could have paid for debit senior living for a year or 2
Melanie looked like she was having a stroke. He was struggling.
🤮🤮🤮
Tbone?
And the news is............................................................................
Yea only his command was, and I, King trump demand you start your engines or it is the cages of El paso for you, and he requested Daniel suares be detained and sent back to mexico, and Trump was pissed that there was no big macks available for him.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
4 more years baby!
And then it rained
Fake news
Misuse of taxpayer $$. Boycott sponsors. NASCAR should not have allowed this politicizing.
What a waste..... of time and money.
Glad to see he is taking care of the important issues in the country..
Nascar has been officially RUINED!
Awesome!!
Does everything have to be a dam show? DJT is a media ho. He loves to showoff. The fans in the audience should have mooned him.
Real men don’t sit in the backseat on an Indy track
And leaves before it begins
🙄 he could have really used the exercise
The best part was when Fox of all stations cut away from his 'lap' to run a Bloomberg ad 🤗
There’s a reason other presidents haven’t done this.
Too fat to walk it..
Best President Ever !! Cheering crowds !! Great American Race. GAR Making America Great Again. MAGA
As a matter fact I’ll make some laps with this. 👇🏾 DickyDon
What a great waste of our tax dollars
Whoopi, the Russians have someone in the Daytona 500
Awesome picture.
And left before the green flag....
This is news? CNN pandering to trump
Bless Trump and the USA!! TRUMP2020 Say no more!!
F1 is better. 😁
Wow... y’all should be proud of yourselves...you FINALLY reported REAL NEWS!! 🤣😆😂😂😂
Bad ass!!! 🇺🇸 Trump2020
He still a douchebag
More bots here than at an R2D2 convention.
Proud to be a TRUMP SUPPORTER 👍
CNN......fatevi I cazzi vostri. Non preoccupatevi di Donald e piutosto cercate dove e' andato Hunter.
I don’t really care. Do you?
Donny the narsassitic a hole had to spend more of tax payer money flying around the race track to get his rocks off.
Awesome!
The best thing to piss Trump off would have been to NOT cover this in any way, shape or form.
Very cool
I look at it as a freebie Trump Rally, compliments of all the ticket buyers and us good ole taxpayers. Another scam. Just another day in this corrupted presidency.
Looking for votes
So that idiot can't do anything else but ride around in circle like a RAT in a limo😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂we are in serious trouble folks😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
My tax dollars at work? I want my money back.
That was against the law
I'm here to see all the liberal tears. Not disappointed.😁😁
Trump enjoys going to places where the population is majority White Folks .
And WeThePeople kneeled in prayer.
No surprise. It's one of the racist events.
Somebody should have taken the chance to spin Trump out and wreck him!
Wow all you guys are so salty its pathetic...
Waste of tax dollars
Should appear on the screen before I have to witness the car crash that he is.
Making revving noises as he goes around track
This is not breaking news
He starts quite a parade.
Just curious! How much did this charade cost the American taxpayers?
Trump had a special 'call-out' to Warren, telling Pocahontas to..start your injuns - Trump opens the Daytona 500 with a lap around the speedway and a command to drivers to 'start your engines.'
How many millions did that cost the taxpayers
big fucking deal 🙄
🤮
👎
How is this news?
'Commands drivers to Start your engines.' That damn Trump, always 'commanding' people to do things.
Can’t wait for realDonaldTrump attend a nba game! 😆 MAGA
Remember news?
Campaign free airtime . Must hive equal time to all
Just another taxpayer-funded Trump campaign promo video. He’ll post it before the end of the day. 🙄
Trash.
waste of taxpayer money
Ugh
Next week Trump walks tight rope across two sky scrapers in New York. Week after Trump jumps Grand Canyon in presidential limousine.Week after Trump gets his fat ass stuck in a cannon.
TRUMP2020LandsideVictory
Ewwwww nascar I thought you were better than that.
This is why I don’t watch that “sport”
So proud of realDonaldTrump for taking time out of his busy golf schedule to kick off the Daytona 500!!!!!!🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
rednecks 4 trump
Well, he will be in in friendly territory in Daytona, an overflowing crowd of people with high alcohol content, and very low intellect.
Wow , greatest president ever! makes me proud to be an American, he's got my vote !
He’ll keep driving left, no wonder nothing goes right
The only time that I've rooted for the wall.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Trump could afford a race from NASCAR
Fuck nascar now. I won’t watch anymore.
Soon as I saw AF1 flying in, I turned the channel. No NASCAR for me today
Triumph of the Wheel.
I'm sure it was fun for his base. But the man's a New Yorker! He doesn't give two sh-ts. He's never ever been to the Daytona before 2020
That NASCAR crowd is his people. I know quite a few fans and they're not exactly 'thinking' folks.
How much, CNN? Are you guys a journalistic outlet or a supermarket tabloid?
Wow the first headline of a story I’ve seen by CNN regarding president Trump that had nothing negative in it!
This is as white trash as it absolutely gets
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️TRUMP2020♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
realDonaldTrump
Who cares? How is this breaking news!?
For all who are commenting without a clue. NASCAR shows more respect and acknowledgement to our military and country than any other organization around by far.
That's my President! He knows the people in this country!! Gotta love it! MAGA The flyover was the best show of appreciation to his voters.
How cool was that? cnn sucks!
Everything Democrats hate; we love it!!
It's official TeamTrump PrezTrump is a hit👊 🚂🚋🚋🚋🇺🇸💨
Watched on tv it was the most exciting beginning of the race ever
God made it rain after Trump's 'look at me' lap. Go figure.
JSmithpolitics1 A beautiful sight. 🇺🇸
When you have nothing to show for, you use the ppls’ car to impress the idiots, take a lap and pretend you are a celebrity. All that, bc you have nothing of substance to show. The idiots love it.
get use to it for four more 😝😝😝🇺🇸😎
4 MORE YEARS!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸 TRUMP 2020 🇺🇸🇺🇸 DAYTONA500
My money spent foolishly by the loan.
FuckTrump
That'll do wonders for that shitty sport.
what an opportunist-too bad most of his 'fans' there don't realize that he only cares for their votes, not about them....
Finally, someplace where he'll never get booed.
Honestly, watching the left fall apart over this is priceless.
Liberal autism is delicious
G-d bless President Trump
Why is this newsworthy
Idiot
Then, inexplicably, he broke into an operatic rendition of 'Back Home In Indiana'.
The crowd 250,000 ppl yelling 4 more years was awesome
Best President ever. Love the left crying about it.
The amount of angry middle aged women on twitter right now is staggering. Kids gone, husband can’t stand them anymore so LETS TWEET.
His reception was lukewarm. America is waking up.
American clown in action 🤡😈😆
Yep, Trump tracks in race... and not in a good way.
4 more years !!!!
Michelle Obama was booed at Nascar. So there's that.
What a joke. A fat barking clown dreaming he is racing in his limo. HA HA HA !
Sounds lame. Did he have pilot of Air Force 1 fly in formation with the Blue Angels? realDonaldTrump is remarkably unaccomplished, there’s golf (he cheats), there’s biz (he cheats) that’s it, can’t even throw out the first pitch!
He said 'GENTLEMEN '!! Get it right CNN!!
At Mar-a-lago then Datona then who knows. Absolute bs
Headline: Trashy orange narcissist fat cat rides in back of million dollar limo for trashy political event at taxpayer expense.
Clown
So proud of realDonaldTrump for taking time out of his busy golf schedule to kick off the Daytona 500!!!!!!🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
When does the GOP start building the temple of trump so the right wing Christians can worship there
Liberal meltdown in 3...2...1.
Did he declare himself the winner?
It’s not his limousine.
For liberals there needs to be some clarification here: The Daytona 500 is the biggest race for NASCAR. NASCAR is an organization that has puton stock car races for over half a century. A car is what people in America own to get around. America is that area between NY and LA.
Wasted another $10M of my damned money. Thanks Orange Squirt.
Whose limousine?
That's our forward in chief
He'll leave early. Won't have a big enough Adderall buzz to last through the race.
This was unnecessary and just fed his ego.. at taxpayers expense.
And NASCAR wonders why its audience is collapsing.
President playing cars is breaking news?
One could call it, a victory lap..
Fuck yeah Trump 2020!
It’s all about meeeeeee!
Barf. 🤮
30 mph? Or was it 34 mph. I saw a kid on a 10-speed pass the limo. Par for our disabled President.
How much did that cost taxpayers? Not to mention delaying commercial flights. NARCISSISM at its FINEST. Weak.
Daytona 500 stopped for rain, before it starts. Engines turned off after Trump says 'start your engines.' EverythingTrumpTouchesDies
That’s awesome
That must be the most expensive lap of taxpayer-funded pandering ever.
The audacity of people to talk about our tax dollars for this when the impeachment circus cost us taxpayers so much.
This is dumb.
And it promptly rains lol
Criminal realDonaldTrump hasn't been stopped by anyone ever, he's behind organized crime and corruption, making money at it undisturbed. He exemplifies a real dictatorship. Donald, go back to Russia
And that ladies and gentlemen is why he is President and why he will be re-elected!! People love him and he loves America!!!
Time to change the channel ....
Oh look at me I get free sporting events.
Hey, we all like at times to get our Ego Stroked.. What's sad is that he's using our taxpayers money.
Stud
Change the name to “Obama” and the haters would quickly change tunes. Some people here just can’t be happy about anything, even a car race.
Abuse of a public asset
He thinks hes the coolest thing since sliced bread.
Shame on you Trump!!!!
Wow CNN! A factual tweet about Trump. Well done!
Republicans would have fipped out of an Obama flag was hanging under the American flag at an NBA game but they are more loyal to Trump than our country. GOPComplicitTraitors As a moderate dem and NASCAR fan I’m offended BanNASCAR I question thier loyalty too.
America under Trump is a true banana republic.
Did he claim he won and tell everyone how great he was for completing one lap?
That’s news?
And how much did this publicity/campaign stunt cost taxpayers?
Best President ever! This nation is blessed, for now
Micro penis
It was nauseating....
Has he ever had a drivers’ license in his life? Has he ever been in the front seat (other than playing Mr. Truck) in his life?
