Trump Receives ‘Patriot of the Year’ Award at Fox Nation Ceremony

Date:

President-elect Donald Trump accepted Fox Nation’s “Patriot of the Year” award Thursday night at a ceremony that drew approximately 2,000 attendees to the Tilles Center for Performing Arts.

Trump, 78, received the American flag-themed award following Lee Greenwood’s live performance of “God Bless the USA,” the president-elect’s signature campaign song. In his acceptance speech, Trump celebrated his recent election victory over Vice President Kamala Harris.

“We had such a spectacular election,” Trump told the crowd, many wearing American flags and “Make America Great Again” apparel. “I think you have seen more happen in the last two weeks than you’ve seen in the last four years, and we’re not even there yet.”

Fox News host Sean Hannity emceed the sixth annual Patriot Awards, which honored military veterans, first responders, and Stephanie Diller, widow of slain NYPD Detective Jonathan Diller. “Unlike the Oscars or the Grammys or the Tonys, this honors the men and women that really do make the country great every day, unsung heroes and real patriots,” Hannity told Fox News Digital.

The appearance marks one of Trump’s few public outings since his Election Day victory, as he primarily remains at Mar-a-Lago assembling his incoming administration. He plans to travel to Paris Saturday for Notre Dame Cathedral’s grand reopening, following its reconstruction after a devastating fire during his first term.
