A huge crowd of Americans gathered on Staten Island, New York, to send the president their well wishes at a rally on Saturday afternoon.

New York State Assembly member and Congressional candidate Nicole Malliotakis (pictured) shared the video footage on her Twitter account:

“Was the president right when he called Staten Island ‘Trump Country?’” Malliotakis asked the audience at the Triumph 2020 Rally.

The crowd soon burst into chants of “USA! USA! USA!” and “Four more years!” according to a YouTube video of the event.

President Trump announced Thursday he and First Lady Melania Trump had tested positive for the coronavirus, as Breitbart News reported.

Following his transfer to Walter Reed Military Hospital, Trump issued a video update on Saturday to discuss his ongoing treatment.

“I came here, wasn’t feeling so well. I feel much better now. We’re working hard to get me all the way back,” he told viewers, adding, “I have to be back because we still have to make America great again”:
