Trump to Speak At University of Alabama; College Democrats Outraged

According to Campus Reform, President Trump will speak to the University of Alabama graduates on May 1st. College Democrats wasted no time responding.

“UACD is shocked and disgusted to learn that our unpopular, divisive, and authoritarian president will be involved in commencement for the graduating class of 2025. This insult will not go unanswered,” This is what College Dems posted to social media.

The disrespect toward our president knows no bounds in the Democrat party. “UA is not a fascist playground,” the post continues. The constant berating and comparing our president to the worst figures in history does not go unabated.

This tantrum elicited a sadly needed response from Alabama Lt Gov. Ainsworth, who said he is “honored to welcome” the president to UA and that “it’s safe to say [President Trump] feels welcomed in Sweet Home Alabama.”

“The President’s commitment to take time out of leading the Free World to speak to Alabama’s graduates is a testament to his priorities: encouraging the next generation of leaders!,” Hollyhand, a Tuscaloosa native and Chair of The RNC Youth Council, wrote on X.

Democrats throughout the country are determined to make President Trump a divisive figure despite his securing of the southern border and his determination on behalf of the American people.

The majority of students and other people in Alabama continue to support and back President Trump.

One extreme faculty member also expressed criticism of the commander in chief. “Inviting the man who detained one of our students without due process. Shameful,” A.J. Bauer, assistant professor in the UA Department of Journalism and Creative Media, wrote on X. Bauer was referring to doctoral student Alireza Doroudi, an Iranian citizen studying mechanical engineering, who was detained by U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in March, Alabama’s student-run newspaper The Crimson White reported.

This will be President Trump’s third visit to the campus while in office.

The president has previously attended two football games at their college stadium. One can hope that the overwhelming majority of the students will be honored to have the President speak and give the commencement.
