President Trump reminisced on his trips to Washington D.C. back when he was beginning his campaign during a rally in Tampa, Florida on Tuesday night.

WATCH:

“I’ve only been here about 17 times and probably seven of those times was to check out the hotel I’m building on Pennsylvania Avenue and then I hop on the plane and I go back. So I’ve been there 17 times, never stayed there at night, I don’t believe, and then I’m riding down in his beautiful car, picked up at the airport by Secret Service, holding the hands of our great First Lady,” the president stated.

After the crowd went crazy with cheers, he continued, “And I look at her and I say, ‘honey, guess what? I’m President of the United States.'” (RELATED: President Trump: ‘Everyone Loves Melania, She’s Doing A Fantastic Job’)

The president was speaking at a rally in Tampa Bay, Florida on behalf of Republican Ron DeSantis, who is running to be the next governor of Florida. DeSantis is campaigning against Adam Putnam, the current Commissioner of Agriculture and former House member.
