President Donald Trump surprised a group of visitors Tuesday morning on the first day the White House was open for tours since he became president.
The president welcomed a small crowd of tourists on the lower floor of the East Wing, waving from behind a velvet rope as the crowd screamed, cheered and took photos.
The president then pulled 10-year-old Jack Cornish from Birmingham, Alabama from the crowd and hugged him as the visitors and journalists looked on.
Trump said, ‘Work hard, everybody, work hard.’
The White House has been closed for tours since inauguration day.
