President Trump welcomed NASCAR fans to the start of this year's Daytona 500 with a lap around the Florida race track in his presidential limousine
"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.
