Watch: Trump rambles about 'trophy wives' during West Point commencement speech

In the middle of his almost hour-long commencement speech to graduates at West Point, Donald Trump went off on a rambling discussion of "trophy wives" to a mostly silent crowd.

Wearing a red "Make America Great Again" hat, the president decided to discuss pioneering real-estate developer William Levitt, as he recalled meeting him at a New York party.

During his tale, which led to him using Levitt's life as an example of "momentum," he brought up Levitt's divorce at which point he seemed to go off-script before getting to his curious point about "momentum."

"He sold this company and he had nothing to do," he told the future military leaders. "He ended up getting a divorce, found a new wife. Could you say a trophy wife? I guess we can say a trophy wife. It didn't work out too well, but it doesn't –– and that doesn't work out too well, I must tell you."

"A lot of trophy wives doesn't work out. But it made them happy for a little while at least," he continued. "But he found a new wife, he sold his little boat and he got a big yacht; he had one of the biggest yachts anywhere in the world. He moved for a time to Monte Carlo, and he led the good life. and time went by and he got bored and 15 years later, the company that he sold to called him and they said, 'The housing business is not for us.'"
