Two days after the US President has been admitted to the hospital following his diagnoses with COVID-19, a number of Trump's supporters have gathered outside the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, wishing him a speedy recovery and expressing their support to him in the presidential elections in less than a month, including a man holding a "Muslim Voices for Trump 2020" Sign.

The man who was identified as Sajid N. Tarar, introduces himself on Twitter as a Punjabi businessman and activist and was seen with at least another man holding a similar sign near the Maryland hospital wearing a MAGA hat, as he took the chance using the megaphone, reciting the first chapter of the Quran, saying that he believes "it has healing powers" that can help the president overcome the virus.

Tarar's support for the president has been quite remarkable as most Muslim-Americans have been supporting the democratic nominee in response to years-long anti-Muslim rhetoric used by Trump before and after he was elected to office in 2016.

Tarar and many other supporters of President Trump have been gathering near the hospital he is staying in for the time being, which has urged Trump to leave the presidential suite briefly to greet them as he stayed in the car yesterday.
