I want to thank everyone for the tremendous support.  We're going to Walter Reed Hospital.  I think I'm doing very well, but we're going to make sure that things work out.  The First Lady is doing very well.  So thank you very much.  I appreciate it.  I will never forget.  Thank you.

I want to begin by thanking all of the  incredible medical professionals, the doctors, the nurses, everybody, at Walter Reed Medical Center—I think it's the finest  in the world—for the incredible job they've been doing.

I came here, wasn't feeling so well. I feel much better now. We're working hard to get me all the way back.

I have to be back because we still have to— make America great again.  We've done an awfully good job of that but we still have steps to go and we have to finish that job.

And I'll be back.  I think I'll be back soon.  And I look forward to finishing up the campaign in the way it was started and the way we've been doing and the kind of numbers that we've been doing. We've been so proud of it.

But this was something that happened and it's happened to millions of people all over the world and I'm fighting for them, not just in the U.S.; I'm fighting for them all over the world.  We're going to beat this coronavirus or whatever you want to call it, and we're going to beat it soundly.

So many things have happened.  If you look at the therapeutics, which I'm taking right now, some of them, and others are coming out soon that are looking like, frankly they're miracles if you want to know the truth.  They're miracles.  People criticize me when I say that.  We have things happening that look like they're miracles coming down from God.  So I just want to tell you that I'm starting to feel good. [continues]

We don't know over the period of a few days I guess that's the real test so we'll what happens over those next couple of days.  I just want to be so thankful for all of the support I've seen, whether it's on television or reading about it, I appreciate what's been said by the American people, by almost a bipartisan consensus of American people.  Beautiful thing to see and I very much appreciate it and I won't forget it, I promise you that.

I also want to thank the leaders of the world for their condolences and their, they know what we're going through, they know what as your leader as I have to go through.

But I had no choice because I just didn't want to stay in the White House.  I was given that alternative: stay in the White House, lock yourself in, don't ever leave, don't even go to the Oval Office.  Just stay upstairs and enjoy it.  Don't see people, don't talk to people and just be done with it.  And I can't do that.  I had to be out front.

And  this is America, this is United States, this is the greatest country in the world, this is the most powerful country in the world.  I can't be locked up in a room upstairs and totally safe and just say hey whatever happens happens.  I can't do that.  We have to confront problems.  As a leader you have to confront problems.  There's never been a great leader that would have done that.  So that's where it is.  I'm doing well; I want to thank everybody.

Our first lady is doing very well, Melania, asked me to say something as to the respect that she has for our country, the love that she has for our country.   And we're both doing well. Melania is really handling it very nicely. As you've probably read she's slightly younger than me, just a little tiny bit. And therefore, just we know the disease, we know the situation, age versus younger people.  And Melania's handling it statistically like it's supposed to be handled.  And that makes me very happy and makes the country very happy. 

But I'm also doing well and I think we're gonna have a very good result. Again over the next few days we're gonna probably know for sure.

So I just want to thank everybody out there, everybody,  all over the world, specifically, the United States, the outpouring of love has been incredible.  I will never forget. Thank you very much.

We're getting great reports from the doctors.  This is an incredible hospital, Walter Reed.  The work they do is just absolutely amazing and I want to thank them all—the nurses, the doctors, everybody here.  I've also gotten to meet some of the soldiers and the first responders and what a group. 

I also think we're going to pay a little surprise to some of the great patriots that we have out on the street, and they've been out there for a long time and they've got Trump flags and they love our country so I'm not telling anybody but you, but I'm about to make a little surprise visit.  So perhaps I'll get there before you get to see me, but I just, when I look at the enthusiasm—and we have enthusiasm like probably nobody's ever had.  Our people that love the job we're doing, we have more enthusiasm than maybe anybody.

So it's been a very interesting journey.  I learned a lot about COVID; I learned it by really going to school.  This is the real school; this isn't the let's read the book school.  And I get it.  And I understand it, and it's a very interesting thing and I'm going to be letting you know about it.  In the meantime we love the U.S.A. and we love what's happening.  Thank you.
