MIKEY SMITH: 12 unhinged Donald Trump moments from the last 24 hours as he gets 'in trouble' with Melania

Donald Trump gave two speeches overnight. The first was to mark a national day of prayer. The second, a commencement address celebrating a graduating class of college students.

You will be shocked to learn they were both dramatically inappropriate.

Meanwhile, the toy industry reckons Trump's tariff plan has put at risk.

Oh, and he finally - FINALLY - fired Mike Waltz, his National Security advisor, more than a month after the Signalgate scandal. Or if you listen to JD Vance, gave him a promotion.

Here's a round up of everything in Trump you missed while you were sleeping (or watching the local election results come in).

1. He told business graduates to...go work in construction

Trump, for some reason, last night gave the commencement address to the graduating class at the University of Alabama.

And while there were certainly some attempts at inspirational advice, the speech mostly resembled his campaign stump speeches - with long sections of political meandering and just plain weirdness.

For example, his big advice to business majors graduating this year? Go pour concrete.

"For the business majors here today," he said, "I challenge you not merely to use your talents for financial speculation, but to apply your great skills that you've learned and had to forging the steel and pouring the concrete of new American factories, plants, shipyards, and even cities."

Not a great endorsement of Alabama's business department.

2. He went on and on about election fraud and his enemies trying to impeach him

"They're already trying to impeach Trump," the President told bright young graduates. "You know, these crazy people. "Let's impeach him. For what? We don't know exactly"...these people are crazy."

He boasted about his claims of mammoth investment from overseas, did his riff on "tariffs" being his favourite word, and moaned that his administration had been "absolutely decimated" by the "fake news".

He did the bit about immigrants coming from prisons and mental institutions, before having another go at the "fake news" - pointing at the cameras at the back as he always does.

And he complained about judges insisting he give due process to people before arbitrarily deporting them.

It was a rally speech, not a commencement speech.

The University, for the record, had threatened to prevent anyone who disrupted the speech with protests with blocking their graduation.

3. He also did a lengthy impersonation mocking female weightlifters

Trump did this grunting impression of a female weightlifter struggling to compete with a transgender competitor.

For the record, I know at least one female bodybuilder who could not only bench me with one hand, she could lift more than I have ever lifted with the other and most likely juggle the contents of both hands in the air without breaking a sweat. Not to speak for her, but I don't think she needs your help, Donald.

He also suggested he was going to get "in trouble" with wife Melania for the impression, because she doesn't like when he does "unpresidential" physical comedy.

4. He boasted about having "faith advisors" working in his White House

Earlier, at a speech to mark a National Day of Prayer, in the Rose Garden, Trump boasted that he'd told advisors to "forget about" the separation of church and state, which is enshrined in the US constitution.

"They work right out of the White House," he said of his faith advisors.

"That's never been done before. No other president allowed that. They say "separation between church and state."

"I said, alright, let's forget about that for one time."

Later, a group of his faith advisors gathered round the President praying and singing Amazing Grace as he sat, eyes closed and smiling, in the middle.

5. He also moaned about the "rigged election" and gloated about his return to office during his speech to religious leaders

Explaining the National Day of Prayer, Trump said: "Nearly 250 years ago, on June 12th, 1775, the Continental Congress appointed a day of fasting and prayer so that Americans fighting for their liberty could seek the help of the Almighty."

He added: "So we have a very, very special day coming up, you know we have a lot of them during this term. And interestingly I had none of them had we not had a rigged election. Had it not been rigged I would have been out of here, I would have been gone. The radical left would have said "We got rid of him, finally." But no, they have me for another four years.

6. So let's talk about Mike Waltz being fired

Trump finally fired Mike Waltz, his National Security Advisor last night - weeks after the Signalgate scandal.

Last month it emerged Waltz had - apparently accidentally - added the Editor of The Atlantic Magazine to a group chat on Signal, a privacy-focused - but not military-grade secure - messaging app.

The chat was used to discuss operational details of a strike on Houthi rebels in Yemen.

Such high level secret conversations normally take place in person, or if not in person using a SCIF - a secure communications clean room set up by intelligence officers to ensure they cant be bugged or hacked.

A month on, Trump finally sacked him - nominating him to be the US Ambassador to the United Nations.

The timing - a month after the scandal - may seem odd, but it's not. Trump reportedly wanted to deny the media another news cycle out of Signalgate, so he sat on the decision to fire Waltz for nearly a month.

This can be illustrated by another story - Trump's unexpected withdrawal of support for the existing nominee, Republican rising star Elise Stefanik - which happened on March 27, three days after the Signalgate story was first published.

Trump's excuse was that he didn't want to risk losing Stefanik's seat in the House, which she'd have to give up by taking the Ambassadorship, in a special election. The Republicans have a razor-thin majority.

But the timing suggests the decision had something to do with making space for Trump, when the time was right, to shuffle Waltz from National Security to the UN.

7. ...or "promoted", if you listen to JD Vance

Asked about the sacking in an interview with (who else?) Fox News, JD Vance gave a different spin...

"He wasn't let go," Vance said. "He's being made Ambassador to the United Nations, which is of course a senate confirmed position. You could make a good argument that it's a promotion."

He didn't outline what that argument would be. It may be a senate confirmed position, but it's probably not going to be a cabinet-level position.

8. Also, please enjoy this delightful moment of 'wait, what?'

Behold, Marco Rubio's spokesperson learning in real time during a press briefing that her boss will be doing double duty as interim National Security advisor as well as Secretary of State.

9. Christmas is cancelled

On Wednesday, Trump gave a troubling warning to parents to manage expectations on the number of toys they'd be able to afford for their kids under his administration.

"Well, maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls," he mused.

"And maybe the two dolls will cost a couple bucks more than they would normally."

Well, the toy industry gave an even bleaker assessment of the situation.

"We have a frozen supply chain that is putting Christmas at risk," said Greg Ahearn, chief executive of the Toy Association, a US industry group representing 850 toy manufacturers.

"If we don't start production soon, there's a high probability of a toy shortage this holiday season."

10. Meanwhile, gamers are about to get real mad at Trump

Microsoft last night announced that, due to Trump's tariffs, the retail price of their consoles, headsets and controllers were all going up.

From May 1, the cost of their most basic console - the Xbox Series S, will go up from £299.99 to $379.99 - an $80 increase.

The premium Series X console will shoot up by $100 to $549.99.

While the basic controllers will stay the same price, the premium editions loved by hardcore gamers and collectors will go up by $10.

We're sure this news will go down well with gamers, who as a group are not known to hold grudges or complain loudly about things on the internet.

11. Stephen Miller announced a North Korea-style dystopian future for America's children

Stephen "Renfield" Miller, Donald Trump's deputy chief of staff and the "brains" behind much of his domestic and immigration agenda, had a little press conference yesterday morning for some reason.

And during this press conference, he threatened to withdraw funding from public schools that the administration deemed to be insufficiently patriotic.

And when he says patriotic, he means North Korea patriotic.

"Children will be taught to love America," he said.

"Children will be taught to be patriots. Children will be taught civic values for schools that want federal taxpayer funding.

"So as we close the Dept of Education and provide funding to states, we're going to make sure these funds are not being used to promote communist ideology."

12. And finally, a history lesson from Donald Trump

Trump announced Veterans Day - the American holiday observed to honour military veterans - which coincides with Armistice Day around the world - is going to be split into two holidays.

And he did so with a slightly questionable history lesson.

"I am hereby renaming May 8th as Victory Day for World War II and November 11th as Victory Day for World War I," he wrote on Truth Social.

"We won both Wars, nobody was close to us in terms of strength, bravery, or military brilliance, but we never celebrate anything. We are going to start celebrating our victories again!"

"We did more than any other" country, he said, to win World War II, which devastated most of Europe and huge parts of Asia.

The latter claim might find some disagreement in, among other places, - which lost 27 million Soviets in the war.
