0:59Now PlayingPresident Donald Trump teased his Supreme Court pick ahead of a planned news conference Saturday to announce his nomination.
"We're going to be naming the nominee who hopefully will be on that court for 50 years," he said. "The only thing I can tell you for sure is it will be a woman."
Trump was speaking at a campaign rally Friday at the Newport News/Williamsburg International Airport in Virginia.
Thousands of supporters were in attendance despite warnings from state health officials about the risks of the rally.
Dr. Natasha Dwamena, a Department of Public Health district director, said in a letter Thursday that the rally would be breaking Gov. Ralph Northam's executive order generally banning gatherings of more than 250 people.
She said the rally should be canceled, rescheduled or scaled down to comply with the governor's order.
The Trump campaign has routinely flouted public health guidelines intended to halt the spread of COVID-19.
Trump has tried to use this summer's mass protests over racial injustice and police misconduct as cover for his rallies, making the case that, if demonstrators can gather en masse, so can his supporters.
Trump's campaign said it took appropriate health precautions, including handing out masks and hand sanitizer and checking the temperatures of rallygoers.
