ALGONQUIN, IL — Hundreds of people showed their support for President Donald Trump during a rally along Randall Road on Saturday, the Daily Herald. About 500 people "braved the cold" to take part in the two-hour rally, according to the Palatine Township Republican Organization Facebook page.

"This is all about President Trump, and showing that Americans, especially Illinoisans, are supporting him and all his efforts, and everything he has done for our country," organizer Joe Ptak of Island Lake told the Daily Herald. Meanwhile, there were four people standing near Saturday's rally and two were holding a flag that stated "Literally Anyone Else."

The rally took place from 10 a.m. to noon at the busy intersection of Randall Road and County Line Road.
