President Donald Trump will be attending a rally in Florida on Monday, while Vice President Mike Pence will be in the Sunshine State over the weekend.

Trump will speak at a rally in Sanford Monday night, his campaign said Friday.

Trump had previously said he wanted to try and hold a campaign rally in Florida on Saturday “if we have enough time to put it together.”

Speaking Thursday night on Fox News Channel, Trump mentioned his desire to start holding campaign rallies again just hours after his doctor said that he fully anticipates Trump can make a “safe return to public engagements” on Saturday following his coronavirus diagnosis.

Trump is eager to return to the campaign trail and boost a campaign that is trailing in the national polls, and in most battlegrounds.

Trump says he is expecting to take another COVID-19 test on Friday. That would be one week after he flew to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for a three-day hospitalization for the coronavirus.

Meanwhile, Vice President Pence will be visiting Florida on Saturday for a bus tour.

Pence will be in Orlando for a Latinos for Trump event before visiting The Villages for another event.
