A few years ago I had the honor of attending my nephew’s passing out at Sandhurst in England. The speech to the cadets there was given by a senior officer. It was moving, inspirational and APPROPRIATE.
They were probably all sitting there thinking, “Maryland got Kermit the Frog and we ended up with this?”
OMG Fox News is so big mad about Kermit the Frog, it’s hilarious.

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.
I’m envious, seriously. I wish this were my dad’s case. It’s horribly depressing to see these old guys spend their last years on earth enamored with this fool.

Were they required to have him speak or did they invite him?

It sounded more clueless than an intentional swipe at the 20% of the class that is women, but if Hegseth had said it, I'd think otherwise.
He also told a graduating class full of cadets who joined up under Biden that no one wanted to join the military under Biden.
He was speaking of enlistment rates.
No here. Context does not change a thing here. He still told cadets who enlisted under Biden that nobody wanted to join military under Biden.
No one's buying his demented ramblings except for his cult members and FOX News.
Grandpa couldn't stay to shake hands for future military officers because he had to take a nap and play some golf and grift some more.

Under Trump they are breaking recruiting records.
MAGA !!
They lowered the bar. Also, it started before Nov 2024 elections.
In fact, according to Army data, recruiting numbers have been increasing steadily over the past year, with the highest total in August 2024 — before the November election. Army officials closely track recruiting numbers.
Instead, a significant driver of the recruiting success was the Army’s decision to launch the Future Soldier Prep Course, at Fort Jackson, South Carolina, in August 2022. That program gives lower-performing recruits up to 90 days of academic or fitness instruction to help them meet military standards and move on to basic training.
In the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, 2024, the Army met its recruiting goal of 55,000 and began to rebuild its delayed entry pool. About 24 percent of those recruits came out of the prep course. Wormuth said she expects it will contribute about 30 percent of this year’s recruits.

He gave an excellent speech, captured and held the attention of the audience, and sparkled some light humor throughout. I only wish I could have been there in person to witness such a historic speech. So proud of him.
He parachuted in in a MAGA hat to make totally inappropriate campaign rally speech excerpts and left in the middle. Shameful.
He had more pressing things to address than shaking hands with randos like fixing the big mess Biden has created in the middle east.
Lol he had to go see his new Qatar plane, moron. Trump isn’t fixing anything. He preparing to default on the debt and has to make sure his money is safe.

I listened to the last section of this hour-long ramble (where's that Trump's rambling speech thread?) and caught the part about the guy and his trophy wife. As usual, my first thought was WTF is he talking about. I was surprised when I realized it was a commencement speech at West Point. The man is an idiot, and this is why they no longer provide the transcripts of his speeches.

You have no self-respect. I’m embarrassed for you that you feel the need to grovel over this truly repulsive human with zero redeeming qualities who doesn’t care about you one bit.

Yes everyone was absolutely silent as he ranted about William Levitt’s trophy wife and yacht. This is the same story he told the Boy Scout jamboree years ago. WTAF.
That was an awful story the first time and the boy scouts never invited him again. Levitt was a racist who tried to build communities that excluded blacks and jews despite being Jewish just to make a buck off of white racist people and the supreme court had to get involved to integrate the neighborhood. Truly the lowest of the low with or without a Trophy wife. How stupid to tell the same speech again.

You mean jetting off to his golf course so he can brag about his fraudulent scores some more.
Trump doesn't care about the military, he thinks they're a prop, and this is just more evidence.
