LEXINGTON (CBS) — A caravan on cars held a rolling rally in support of President Trump Saturday. The parade from Plymouth to Nashua, N.H. was in support of the president’s re-election.
Hundreds of cars participated, and cars were decorated with American flags, Make American Great Again signs, and Trump 2020 posters.
“I love Trump,” said Bo Flynn of Easton. “We’re his biggest supporters.”
Flynn traveled to Lexington, Massachusetts, and then up to New Hampshire.

Attendees said they came out to show their support, not necessarily change people’s views.
“We hope he recovers soon,” said Shu Chung, a Trump supporter. “I like his policies.”
Another supporter, Shiela Lynch, said, “I didn’t vote for him because of his personality. I voted for him because of his strength. I think our country needs it.”
President Trump tweeted on Saturday, “Doctors, Nurses and ALL at the GREAT Walter Reed Medical Center, and others from likewise incredible institutions who have joined them, are AMAZING!!!Tremendous progress has been made over the last 6 months in fighting this PLAGUE. With their help, I am feeling well!”
A much larger crowd at the #Lexington service station. I’m told there are more cars than expected, so they’re moving the #Trump2020 rally to a Londonderry, NH flee market. #WBZ pic.twitter.com/LiFjTmknDF

Rally goers say despite the growing number of coronavirus cases linked to the White House, they feel safe being amongst a crowd, with or without a mask.
“I’m keeping my distance for the most part,” said Jim Bicanzo, another Trump supporter. “And if I get it, I get it. And if I die, I’ll die, I guess. Everybody has to die of something.”
