Trump says he'll deliver West Point graduation speech to socially distanced crowd

       Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump on Friday confirmed that he will deliver a commencement speech to the graduating class at the US Military Academy this year.

       "I'm doing it at West Point, which I look forward to. I did it last year at Air Force. I did it in Annapolis. I did it at the Coast Guard Academy and I'm doing it at West Point. And I assume ... they'll have (social) distancing. They'll have some big distance, so it'll look very different than it ever looked," Trump said Friday evening during a White House press briefing.

       The President added that though he doesn't like "the look" of a socially distanced crowd, "eventually, next year, they'll have a commencement like it's been ... nice and tight."

       Trump's speech to the 2020 class will mark his first at a West Point graduation. But it's unclear when a ceremony will take place, amid the coronavirus pandemic.

       Vice President Mike Pence is slated to deliver a commencement speech at the Air Force Academy graduation this weekend in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The commencement was moved up six weeks, and family and friends will not be able to attend.

       West Point's campus is in New York state, which has been the state hardest hit by the coronavirus pandemic so far.

       According to the academy, "Online learning began Thursday, March 19, and will continue through term end exams." The academy also declared a public health emergency.

       A spokesperson for the Military Academy told CNN in a statement on Thursday that "U.S. Military Academy staff continues to conduct a thorough analysis and plan for the safe return of the Corps of Cadets at the right time."

       "The academy senior leaders are determining the return of the Class of 2020 for graduation and commissioning to meet the needs of the Army during this national crisis as well as when summer training activities will commence for all others. A decision on the timing and scope of these events are based on the safety of our cadets, their families and the West Point community," the statement adds.
