President Donald Trump is preparing to jump start his campaign and hold a in-person rally Monday in the Sunshine State. His rally in Sanford will be his first in-person event outside of the White House since his COVID-19 diagnosis on Oct. 2.
The president’s visit comes as Florida continues to see a slight increase in cases, hospitalizations and deaths.
Although the commander in chief is still within the 14-day quarantine period after contracting the virus, his top medical officials have cleared him to return to an active schedule.
