WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump will deliver the keynote address at Liberty University’s commencement ceremony.
Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr. provided the details of the May 13 graduation ceremony in a statement Wednesday.
Falwell was a close ally to Trump during his campaign and told The Associated Press in January that he’d been asked to lead a presidential task force on higher education reform.
President George H.W. Bush was the last president to deliver the Virginia-based university’s keynote address in 1990.
Falwell says the school is “incredibly grateful to have President Trump be a part of this historic day.”

Lemme see, Clown College or Barber College, Trump University or Liberty University?
So many choices for such an eloquent, insightful speaker.
I wonder if the brain trustees at Falwell U. will be filled with enough forgiveness to still welcome his appearance following his unceremonious resignation and criminal indictment(s)?
Perhaps he’ll be given an honorary doctorate in English for his works of fiction. Then, perhaps, after bragging about the scope of his election victory, he’ll advise the young, impressionable, Liberty University graduates to “go out into the world and grab life bigly, by the pussy”
“Most people don’t know this, but Jesus was a Jew. Crazy, right? One more example of somebody who’s done an amazing job and is being recognized more and more.”
Uh-oh, 3 and 4 Corinthians, get ready…
Hah. No one else would have him. Does this mean that Liberty U. will give him an Honorary Degree in Biblical Studies? It sure is a lot easier than actually having to read the darn thing. So many pages. Amiright, children of the corn?
