According to Washingtonian, the Republican candidate visited the hotel's property at the Old Post Office on Pennsylvania Avenue to talk about the progress of the project and explain the different luxury accommodations.

Aside from revealing that the hotel would be luxurious, Trump did not talk about the progress of the development on the project.
According to DC Curbed, Trump said that once the project is complete, it will be the largest luxury ballroom in the entire Washington area. When asked if the hotel would prioritize veterans, Trump responded by offering the journalist an interview instead.
