"(The Presidential Medal of Freedom) is actually much better because everyone [who] gets the Congressional Medal of Honor, they're soldiers. They're either in very bad shape because they've been hit so many times by bullets or they're dead.” Donald Trump's Medal Of Honor Remarks Spark Anger From Veterans (msn.com)
It is true that most people who get the PMoF are still alive, Bob Dylan didnt have to dynamite an enemy bunker to get it
My God, that's truly awful and bizarre. Of course, he's wrong about the Medal of Honor, which is not surprising. He seems to be ignorant about everything. But to try and claim that giving money to the Republicans is a higher calling than defending your country in war ... After all "she’s a healthy, beautiful woman" and "They’re either in very bad shape because they’ve been hit so many times by bullets or they’re dead." No-brainer for Trump.
Well, that’s a perspective I certainly haven’t heard before. I helped write and push through a Medal of Honor for a fallen Soldier in my unit when we were deployed. Didn’t think he’d actually get it. Years later I picked up a newspaper randomly and saw a picture of President Obama awarding it to his family. Was a very proud moment.
Miriam Adelson, she is basically the Audie Murphy of wretched right-wing politics, machine guning casino money into the political system so grandma can eat dog food and Israel can bomb Palestinians in perpetuity and such.
His life has been 100% transactional and its reflected in everything he does. He has no real core beliefs other than through the lens of his narcissistic filters (crowd size, TV ratings, and stupid false-equivalent metrics like comparing these two medals, etc). And no real policy commitment other than "it's an easy fix", "Mexico will pay for it" or "we'll have great healthcare" only to be followed with "who knew health care could be so hard" when its time to actually get something done. (HINT: everyone but you). He runs his life like he ran The Apprentice, except the US populace are now his contestants. This is who he is, has always been and will always be, and who almost half the country wants to lead them.
I’m curious...which is truly considered the higher honor: the Congressional Medal of Honor, awarded for acts of extraordinary valor, or the Presidential Medal of Freedom given for contributing millions to a presidential campaign?
Coulda just played some of his folk music and the enemy would have given up immediately. HA, I keed I keed!
Miriam Adelson, worth approx $28B, has been one of the biggest contributors to trump. She said Trump should have a book in the Bible. The Pro-Israel Donor With a $100 Million Plan to Elect Trump
“This one is better, cuz with that other one you gonna get shot or die…this one here though? You get to stay beautiful and live” It's still shocking that this shithead is so popular but he's not the only extremely selfish person out there...other losers relate to him.
Trump should be the first recipient of the Medal of Bone Spurs (also known as the BS Medal). "For those who would have served their country in the military with all the suckers and losers but who courageously found a doctor to keep them out."
And the thing is, you know he really believes it. Being rich and giving him money is a far better thing that risking your life for your country because, after all, that's just stupid.
