Motorcade arrived at the University of Alabama’s Coleman Coliseum at roughly 1853 local time after a roughly 20 minute trip, during which pool spotted at least one group of supporters lined up along the route waving Trump/Vance campaign signs, plus a supporter of POTUS wearing an inflatable dinosaur suit holding a sign.

POTUS is here to deliver an address at the university’s commencement ceremony. Earlier he noted on Truth Social that the university had combined its normal nine separate ceremonies into a single one.

Pool did not see POTUS exit his vehicle.

We have now moved inside the arena and are setting up at a section reserved for White House press, which is something your pooler is certain did not exist at his own graduation from the illustrious University of Wisconsin (go Badgers).
