The speech, which stunned observers, was delivered to the US military's 2025 graduating class.

It lasted over an hour and frequently strayed from honouring newly commissioned officers.

Instead, Trump mocked marginalised communities and revisited grievances.

It came as war continues to rage in Ukraine despite his boast to have it ended within a day in January.

Wearing a red MAGA cap, Trump said he had "liberated our troops from divisive and demeaning political trainings".
