“From the first day I set my foot on this beautiful soil, I connected with Alabama,” Trump mentioned.

He encouraged students not to “waste their youth.”

“Ancient wisdom is being rediscovered in the best and strongest place, coming back for all to see bigger, better and greater than ever, coming back,” he said.

We will very quickly make America great again.”
