Supporters sending well-wishes to
President Donald Trump, who has COVID-19, gathered outside Walter Reed Hospital
on Saturday to wish the country’s most prominent patient a speedy recovery.
Dozens of people stood outside the
hospital waving Trump 2020 flags and holding signs on Saturday evening.
Police moved demonstrators across
the street and both directions of Rockville Pike were shut down outside Walter
Reed about 8 p.m. as police investigated a suspicious package outside. Police
cleared the package and allowed Trump supporters to go back to the hospital
gate a couple of hours later. Rockville Pike has reopened.
"This is not about - it's not
about race. It's not about your political affiliation, right, it's about …
being [patriotic]. We are all American. We are standing behind you," one
man told News4's Darcy Spencer.

"The country needs him. The
world needs him too," a woman said.
"I think people should just put
everything aside and just wish him better because coronavirus is a very
dangerous virus and he's an elderly man. So, everyone should just pray for his
safety and pray for that he makes it out of this safely," one man said.
A group of supporters of former Vice
President Joe Biden could be seen demonstrating across the street from the
hospital.
