Donald Trump became the first president, sitting or former, to be named the Grand Marshal of the Daytona 500. As a result, on Sunday, he voiced the race’s traditional opening commands, “gentlemen, start your engines” and also rode “The Beast,” his armed-limo, around the track.

“It really is the Great American Race,” Trump said on the FOX broadcast moments before the race began. “And I look at this as almost a patriotism kind of thing.”

“A patriotism type of thing”.

No words.

Trump also got weird and started pointing at the sky and claimed that God made us free:

Trump said he has attended the race four times before, but not since 2001. He was joined alongside the First Lady.

Ahead of the race, Air Force One also swooped in around 800 feet above the racetrack, according to FOX’s broadcast.

And Twitter quickly noticed something else about Trump’s appearance at the Daytona 500.

When his presidential limousine went around the track at Daytona…it went the wrong way.

The jokes write themselves.

Twitter had a field day:

Trump's limo drove the wrong way around the track at his NASCAR stunt lol 😂 https://t.co/9NuAckFTx9

Not that it matters because this is a huge charade to coddle Trump’s ego, but he’s going the wrong way around the track. https://t.co/bpfRmFHPzh

Hahahaha. Trump is going the wrong way around the track. What an incredible metaphor for his presidency.

Nobody's going to comment on the symbolism of Trump going the wrong way around the track?#DAYTONA500

He went the wrong way. And that isn't even on the track.

Even when appealing to southern Trumpists, Trump can't do it right#Trump #POTUS #MAGA #KAG #Q #QANON #WWG1WGA #QARMY #DrainTheSwamp #Trump2020 #WalkAway #TheAwakening #ForeverImpeached https://t.co/BnKCOJyzC0

.@realDonaldTrump noticed that when your limo came onto the track at Daytona, it went the wrong way. Can't you do anything right?

You probably think all the drivers do is get on the track and turn left. Why even attend?#DAYTONA500 #ImpeachedPresident#ImpeachedForever45
