In an Oct. 8 memo, Dr. Conley said the president has responded “extremely well” to treatment and has remained stable since returning home from Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, according to The Hill

“Saturday will be day 10 since Thursday’s diagnosis, and based on the trajectory of advanced diagnostics the team has been conducting, I fully anticipate the President’s safe return to public engagements at that time,” Dr. Conley said, according to the report. 

Speaking with Fox News’ Sean Hannity late Oct. 8, the president said he hopes to have an in-person rally this weekend. He said his team would try to schedule rallies in Florida and Pennsylvania, according to Politico.
