President Trump had what he called “a little fun” calling Coast Guard Academy graduates on-stage to comment on their good looks, strong arms and gender.
Trump began his shout-outs with the top academic achiever, calling on stage a cadet named Matthew and shaking his hand, remarking, “I hate good-looking men.”
Next up, Trump shouted out an athletic star named Thomas, with the president feigning fear as he approached and quipping, “This is not UFC. Please understand that, Thomas.”
“Look at the muscles on this guy. I just hit him on the shoulder. I hurt my hand. It’s like hitting a rock!” the president joked.
Trump then mentioned the female class president, Savannah, inviting her on stage to laughter as he remarked, “I have to. If I didn’t invite her up, they’d accuse me of discrimination. It’d be, ‘Ladies and gentlemen, the president got sued today.’”
