The president's temporary departure from the hospital came less than half an hour after he posted a video of himself thanking all of his supporters late Sunday afternoon.
"The work they do is just absolutely amazing, and I want to thank them all. The nurses, the doctors, everybody here," Trump said, shown wearing a white dress shirt, blue blazer and no tie from inside the hospital. It's the same attire seen in his motorcade.
"I also think we're going to pay a little surprise to some of the great patriots that we have out on the street, and they've been out there for a long time, and they've got Trump flags and they love our country. Although the president was first"fatigued" and in good spirits, he kept his social media lines open throughout the weekend, saying on Saturday he felt much better. Hours earlier during a press conference, a member of his medical team said that Trump could be out of the hospital as early as Monday if things go well.
