Donald Trump will be giving the commencement address at West Point on Saturday.
Trump gave the commencement address at West Point in 2020 as well.
President Donald Trump is delivering his first military commencement address since returning to office.
The Republican president is set to speak to West Point’s graduating class on Saturday morning.
Trump gave the commencement address at West Point in 2020, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. The president urged the graduating cadets to “never forget” the soldiers who fought a war over slavery during his remarks, which came as the nation was reckoning with its history on race after the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis.
Trump also paid tribute to the military academy’s history and its famed graduates, including Douglas MacArthur and Dwight D. Eisenhower. The ceremony five years ago drew scrutiny because the U.S. Military Academy forced the graduating cadets, who had been home because of COVID-19, to return to an area near a pandemic hot spot.
Trump previously gave an address at the University of Alabama.
U.S. President Donald Trump capped a week-long celebration of his first 100 days – interrupted by a shakeup of his national security team – with a trip to deep-red Alabama on Thursday to kick off graduation weekend at the state’s most prominent university.

Trump offered the graduates some lessons from his own lifetime “spent building dreams and beating the odds.”
“I beat a lot of odds, lot of odds,” he said. “Oh gee, I’m president, how did that happen?” He counseled the graduates to “give it your all,” “smash through everything,” “think big” and “work hard.”
