He did ramble quite a bit, but towards the end it was quite good. He also emphasized that he knew they were going to do great things. Trump always gives rambling speeches.

At least he did not tell them that he was recruited to play football there and received an appointment, but that Roger Staubach had been recruited so he knew he might not play. Maybe, he could have substituted Pete Dawkins (earlier WP Heisman winner) for Staubach.


That’s boilerplate grad speech stuff. AI can do that. Doesn’t make it a very good speech.


No. It was not boilerplate. You did not listen to all of it. He seriously honored the cadets who were graduating. Repeatedly. Sure, there was typical Trump MAGA, too, but there was some seriously good moments in the speech.

He didn't seem to honor the cadets that were not Maga while he was standing up there in his political maga gear. He failed the assignment.


Huh? You don't think the cadets want to make America great again? He did not know who voted for him and who didn't.


You don't understand why he's not supposed to wear political stuff to West point. I hope the cadets understand why he shouldn't do that.


I'm sure most of them took their education seriously....unlike the unintelligent MAGA we have to listen to on here.

MAGA cult of stupids


Powell is saying that everyone should be saying.


Except we aren't a democracy

We're a democratic Republic. Powell mixing that up reflects poorly on his education.


Wannabe civics experts who make this distinction are so tiresome.

Hate to break it to you but a democratic republic is a form of democracy. It combines aspects of both democracy and republicanism:

Democratic element: Citizens have a say in governance, typically through voting.

Republican element: The government operates as a representative system, where officials are elected to make decisions on behalf of the people.

This system prevents direct rule by the populace while ensuring that leaders are chosen through democratic processes.

You people look like fools when you raise this objection.

He wears the hat everywhere because he’s too vain and insecure about his balding head and his crazy combover blowing in the wind. There was a photo once of him walking across the WH lawn with his combover blowing straight up and it was super ridiculous so he’s never going to have that happen again.


That hat is part of his brand now.

Cheap Chinese-made hats. So tacky.

My senior navel officer dad detested him. So some of the old timers are savvy and have as much respect for him as he has for the military which is to say not much.


My uncle served and in his 80's-despises trumpy and knows him and fox are evil.

True, but the solution for pure vanity's sake would have been to wear a USMA baseball cap.
