Two other young men said that despite political differences, they hoped that he would get better.

“I hope he’s okay. I don’t agree with everything he does, but don’t want anybody to suffer if they don’t have to.”

Trump announced early Friday morning he and First Lady Melania Trump both tested positive for the virus. He was transferred to Walter Reed Hospital Friday afternoon “out of an abundance of caution” after experiencing mild symptoms.
