Trump delivers patriotic speech to thunderous applause from military
United States President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have received thunderous applause from the military.
The reaction came at Fort Bragg, where President Trump and Secretary Hegseth spoke to the military on the 250th birthday of the US Army.
Planes and helicopters flew over Fort Bragg to celebrate the US president, with Donald Trump watching Special Forces Operations demonstrations.
Taking the stand, Hegseth declared that President Donald Trump had the 'backs' of the American troops.
Hegseth then declared the Trump administration wasn't interested in 'woke garbage and political correctness', resulting in thunderous applause and cheers.
