President Trump delivered the commencement address to graduates of the U.S. Naval Academy today:

Trump also made it clear he had no intention of heading back to the White House immediately after his speech:

Trump tells cadets he will stay for hours after the commencement speech to meet and shake the hands of over 1,100 graduates, rather than leave right away

That’s a lot of hand shaking:

Trump: "I could make this commencement address … and immediately leave and wave goodbye … Or I could stay for hours and shake hands with 1,100 and something. What should I do? What should I do? I'll stay, I'll stay!" pic.twitter.com/qsJ220pnHW

Excellent!

This. Is. Awesome.

From the White House pool report on Trump at the Navy graduation:

“POTUS is now on the dais where he will spend the next couple of hours shaking hands with each graduate as they come up to get their diploma.”
