The Republican’s jolting speech was standard fare for President Trump and well-received by the crowd in deep-red Alabama, which backed him in all three of his presidential runs.

Trump announced his visit to the University of Alabama in a Truth Social post on Monday. He will also deliver a commencement address on May 24 at the U.S. Military Academy in West Point, N.Y. Delivering graduation ceremonies at one of the nation’s five military academies is a common ritual for U.S. presidents.
