“ Trump Says Medal He Gave Billionaire Donor ‘Much Better’ Than Military Medal of Honor”

  1. “WHILE ADDRESSING JEWISHsupporters gathered at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, on Thursday — an event meant to center on fighting antisemitism — Donald Trump said that a civilian Presidential Medal of Freedom is better than the Medal of Honor because soldiers who are recognized are “in very bad shape … or they’re dead.”

    The insulting remark was made as the former president lauded Miriam Adelson, a billionaire and widow of longtime Republican megadonor Sheldon Adelson. Miriam has continued to to dump millions into Trump’s campaign following Sheldon’s death in 2021. The former president awarded Miriam with the Medal of Freedom in 2018, for work her as a doctor and her donations to facilities treating drug addiction.

    “I watched Sheldon sitting so proud in the White House when we gave Miriam the Presidential Medal of Freedom,” Trump said on Thursday evening. “That’s the highest award you can get as a civilian. It’s the equivalent of the Congressional Medal of Honor,” Trump added, referring to the highest military honor given for valor in combat.

    Someone should study how Trump or the media, invents a viewpoint.
    Inventing view points, excluding contradiction while the legal system collaborates.
    Trump is more optimistic than realistic, like a struggling company that refuses to go out of business.
     
  3. I am sure my dead Vietnam vet cousin and brother in-laws appreciate his candor. They called people of his sort a coward. How come they didn’t get bone spurs deferrals?
     
  4. They got robbed, if only they had a rich family to offer up campaign donations instead of serving, that would have been true valor.
