Trump Is Returning to West Point to Speak at the US Military Academy’s Graduation
- Republican President Donald Trump will deliver a commencement speech to the graduating class at West Point on Saturday morning, marking his first time addressing military cadets since resuming office.
- Trump previously gave the West Point commencement address in June 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic, when cadets were called back near a pandemic hot spot, an event that drew scrutiny.
- In his 2020 address, Trump reminded the graduating cadets to honor those who served in the conflict over slavery, acknowledged the academy’s legacy, and spoke amid a national conversation on racial issues following George Floyd’s death.
- Earlier this month, Trump addressed the University of Alabama's graduating class with remarks mixing standard advice alongside political attacks on Joe Biden, comments about transgender athletes, and false claims regarding the 2020 election.
- Vice President JD Vance recently addressed the U.S. Naval Academy, stating that Trump aims to send U.S. Troops on missions with specific objectives instead of the ambiguous and prolonged engagements that occurred previously.
