The president made the remark during remarks about the need to rebuild the country's infrastructure, which he said had become like "a third world country."
"Were going to build new airports," Trump said. "Were going to build new highways. Were going to build new dams. Were going to build infrastructure. We just had approved recently, we just had approved, were fixing up all of our airports. Billions of dollars just got approved, and Im signing it shortly."
Trump was perhaps referring to the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018 recently passed by the House and awaiting Senate approval.
"We will build new strength into our country," Trump said. "We will breathe new hope into our communities and we will do it all with these big, beautiful hands," Trump continued, raising both presidential paws and stretching out the fingers.
"Look at these hands," he said.
"Loyal citizens like you, the people of Tennessee, helped build this country and together we are taking back our country," Trump said. "We're returning the power back to our great American patriots."

Also, I love how the guy who proudly bragged that he didn't pay taxes -- saying 'that makes me smart' -- pisses and moans and bitches about how crappy the infrastructure WE pay for is, how it isn't up to the high standards he demands.
He really is a little bavarian prince.

(56,828 posts)that our infrastructure needs massive upgrades - back in the W Bush era, economists had estimated it would likely take somewhere around $3 trillion to improve and upgrade our infrastructure to make it ready for the economic challenges of the 21st century. I'm sure it's more by now as our bridges/roads/airports/rail have all aged 10-15 years since that time.
However, it is his republican party that is blocking any sort of infrastructure upgrades and improvements that don't involve massive privatization, and they have been blocking these things since Bill Clinton was president.

(4,006 posts)it makes us all think back to the 'small hands' comment from that NYC writer long ago!
One would think it wise to never mention hands, let alone his small hands, ever again. 'Course, that would take a brain!

(23,146 posts)One of his flaws he talks about it obsessively, attempting to deny it by lying about it. We need massive billboards all across the country pointing out his flaws. Especially his pathological lying. That would drive him berserk.
