NASHVILLE, TN - (WKRN) - While the Belmont debate is over, there were some other things President Donald Trump said during his time in Nashville.

During a chat as he greeted the President Thursday afternoon at the Nashville airport, Tennessee Republican Party Chair Scott Golden said Trump told him that he “felt really good about where we were in the campaign.”

“The president was asking how we are doing in Tennessee,” said the GOP party chair. “And curious about all the elections going on here in Tennessee and how the turnout was comparing 2020 to 2016.”

Golden later helped organize a crowd of around 500 people to see President Trump off on his way back to Washington.

“So everyone was excited to see him. Lots of positive responses” added the state Republican party chair.
