Trump Graduation Speech From 2004 About How To Get Around Walls Hasn't Aged Well For Him At All

With high school seniors graduating and former President Barack Obama issuing a commencement speech shared by every major network, the internet is in the perfect mood to laugh over a resurfaced clip of President Donald Trump giving a commencement speech of his own in 2004.


In his speech, the President said some pretty ironic things concerning walls.

The clip was shared on Twitter by The Daily Show and quickly spread.


Trump's advice to graduating seniors?

Ignore walls.

Do anything you can to get past them.



Trump's advice was especially apt considering his future obsession with walls.


For what it's worth, the President did follow his own advice.


A few people noted, however, that the speech contained a couple less than salient points.



Even this speech, one of Trump's more lucid addresses, seemed a bit too rambling for many.


Trump still knows the best words.

Perhaps it's time President Trump issued a new speech more in line with his current philosophies.

AG Pam Bondi's Brother Blames 'Rabid Partisans' After Getting Absolutely Walloped In DC Election

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump has often bragged about his overwhelming victory over Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris, claiming he won by a landslide. But while he did manage to finally win a popular vote in 2024, something he lost in 2016 and 2020, it was hardly a landslide.

About 90 million eligible, registered voters didn't bother to vote at all in 2024, while Trump garnered only ~77 million votes, VP Harris received about ~75 million—a difference of only ~2 million which is less than the population of Trump's hometown of Queens, New York City.

Kristi Noem's Past Views On National Guard Come Back To Bite Her After She Backs Trump Amid LA Protests

California Governor Gavin Newsom called out the hypocrisy of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem after sharing a clip from last year showing she'd once criticized the Biden administration for considering deploying the National Guard when Democrats suggested it as a response to Texas' immigration crackdown at the time.

That's noteworthy because Noem has made an about-face, defending President Donald Trump's decision to deploy the National Guard to Los Angeles amid ongoing protests in response to his administration's immigration raids by claiming he'd taken this drastic step "for the safety of this community ... to keep peace."
