In The Villages, a massive Republican-friendly retirement community northwest of Orlando where golf carts are the vehicles of choice for many residents, Trump supporters were holding a golf-cart parade in honor of the president, who is turning 74.

Speaking to West Point graduates on Saturday, Trump said his birthday coincided with the 245th anniversary of the U.S. Army's founding. “Unrelated, going to be my birthday also," Trump said. “I don't know if that happened by accident. Did that happen by accident, please? But it's a great day because of that Army birthday."
