Trump in the video; “I want to thank everyone for their tremendous support. I am going to Walter Reed Hospital. I think I have done a great job, but we want to make sure everything is okay. The First Lady does a great job too. Thank you very much. I really appreciate your support and I will never forget”. She said.
