Shortly after, he joked about giving the press "a little ride" while imitating driving a crane.

“We’ll put the media on it and I’ll give them a little ride,” he said.

Trump has repeatedly emphasized the manufacturing sector as he moves toward next year's election, often citing his personal history as a real estate developer.

In 2017, the president had a viral moment when he pretended to drive a tractor-trailer during a photo-op at the White House with leaders from the trucking industry.

At the time, social media users mocked Trump, calling him a "big boy" playing with trucks.

The viral photo-op was later made into a picture book titled "The President and the Big Boy Truck."
