He was apparently referencing the Trump supporters who gathered nearby his event, waving flags and honking their horns during his speech:

Several pro-Trump parades have been popping up across the country over the last week. Hundreds gathered for a “Trump train” parade in Greenbrier County, West Virginia, on Saturday. Footage shows similar scenes in Arizona, New Jersey, North Carolina, Utah, and California.
