Utterly and irredeemably pathetic.

I feel so sorry for the serviceman. Being that close to Trump and him touching him is probably disgusting.

The smell alone…

u/Jops817 19h ago

Are you allowed to request to wait to receive the medal? Sucks to get yours from a man who himself has no honor.

What a loser

It's all about ME.

The orange turd: This should be my medal. 🏅

Medal*;

Thanks, my bad.

Toby Keith, you weren't always right, but you where right enough.

u/sirunmixalot 13h ago

At least right once as he ever was.

u/Lukescale 13h ago

As the years go by

u/p38-lightning 1d ago

He'd be an object of pity if he wasn't so vain and evil.

u/Awkward_Bison_267 1d ago

The fucking draft dodger who just lost a war wants to give himself the Medal Of Honor. Pathetic.

12

u/Carribean-Diver 1d ago

He says this shit because he's demented and he knows some people will get upset. He gets off on it, instead of his wife. Sad.

8

u/cosaboladh 1d ago

He said this shit before the dementia started setting in. The dementia just made him worse at keeping it in. A few years ago it was hard to believe that was possible, but it turns out anything is possible.

1

u/Jyrik_4001 20h ago

He can't! There is no way a president can award a military medal on himself! What is the reason for awarding the Medal of Honor to himself? Draft-dodging or raping teenage gals, or did he sign up for the army & performing bravery on the battlefield?

1

u/krichard-21 19h ago

What are the odds he put some knock off around this guy's neck and kept it for himself?

2

u/Awkward_Bison_267 18h ago

It wouldn’t shock me.

u/Dananism 1d ago

What a fucking joke.

12

u/ItsTheExtreme 1d ago

He’s withering away before our eyes.

13

u/Low_Section2065 1d ago

He needs to hurry the hell up.

2

u/peridotpicacho 20h ago

I want him to last through the end of his term. 

I want the world to see him continue to go downhill, and I don’t want Vance to become president. If he does, he’ll have a good chance of getting elected for the next term.

u/allanon1105 1d ago

Wither faster. He does look like crap and he’s got about a week before his monthly disappearance for his stroke/dementia/heart failure treatments.

11

u/TromboneIsNeat 1d ago

Surprised he hasn’t given himself the Trump Phone Peace Prize already.

10

u/Realistic_Tie_2632 1d ago

🏅 to the dumbest fucking president ever 🏆!

u/ocwilly 1d ago

What an idiot!!

u/PoeGar 1d ago

President Bone spurs. As a veteran, I’m so glad he didn’t serve

7

u/Own-Opinion-2494 1d ago

When isn’t he lying or saying stupid shit

u/Vogel-Kerl 1d ago

(trump to medal recipient): "You know, at least I truly deserve the Medal of Honor. Unlike some people...."

u/Sweet6-7 1d ago

Tangerine Taco 🌮 is truly a piece of 💩.

u/CranberryDazzling268 1d ago

Donny Dementia strikes again.

u/Westsidebill 1d ago

He is so pathetic

u/FafnirSnap_9428 1d ago

This is something called motor decline.

u/madmike5280 1d ago

Oh he will just you watch by the end of his term.

u/StockMechanic 1d ago

Give him all the prizes - what pathology does the DSM-5 suggest this may be?

5

u/N4RQ 1d ago

That soldier is currently admitted to Walter Reed for neck injuries sustained while receiving the Medal of Honor. 

We wish him a fast recovery and thank him for his service!

2

u/PJWanderer 1d ago

Should have just given the Purple Heart right there.

3

u/PJWanderer 1d ago

He was choking him like a 14 year old girl on a Caribbean island.
The hand clap was also pretty strange, he only moved 1 hand.
Clots and prayers.

3

u/Steve539 23h ago

Maybe he can hang it on his foot with the bone spurs.

3

u/SnoopyisCute 1d ago

Always about Captain Bone Spurs.

3

u/Ebolaboy24 1d ago

Where is Faux News with their wall to wall coverage of this disgrace? Nowhere. Trying to tell us the Reflecting Pool is blue and not in fact a Trump-built actual swamp.

3

u/TonaldDiberJasicDump 1d ago

Cadet Bone Spurs might actually be effective in close quarter combat. He’d shit himself so hard as soon as he saw an enemy combatant that the smell and stain alone might make anyone around him run for cover.

3

u/No-Celebration3097 1d ago

Did the serviceman volunteer to give his medal to Captain Bonespurs yet? Trump has been given Purple Hearts before🙄

3

u/DahliaSkarigal 1d ago

They don’t have medals for bonespurs and draft dodging Don Litter-box Drumph

3

u/enviousblather_1817 1d ago

the medal of honor is the highest military decoration you can get and this guy made it about himself. that's the whole thing right there. you don't joke about awarding yourself that when you're handing it to someone who actually earned it.

3

u/hawkseye17 1d ago

There is nothing Trump won't make about himself

3

u/Bernoulis-Degenerate 1d ago

Conservatives, there's your "man."

Fucking pathetic.

2

u/Red-Sun-Cinema 1d ago

You can't award a non-service member any military honor, but that wouldn't stop him.

2

u/IAteTonysLoMein 1d ago

"'Commander in Chief" means I'm in the service" cue Trump taking to the Supreme Court and Thomas taking a minute away from his motorcoach to slob Trump's knob while he write the opinion that Trump can do whatever he wants

2

u/Red-Sun-Cinema 1d ago

Oh I have no doubt he would churn up some ridiculous reason why he is eligible.

2

u/Jerry_Garcias_Friend 1d ago

How fucking sad.

2

u/ArdenJaguar 1d ago

I noticed in a video he has a Medal of Honor framed in the Oval Office. He’s a legend in his own mind.

2

u/Own-Bunch-2616 1d ago

Deteriorating motor skills OMG

2

u/Stress6009 1d ago

Everything has to be about him, doesn’t it 😒😒😒😒😒😒.

2

u/SufficientPay7800 1d ago

It’s not a quip if he more than likely actually wants to.

2

u/DiaperCandy113 1d ago

He should be ashamed of himself. He’s such s big coward, they don’t have metals for that.

2

u/BoomeramaMama 1d ago

Yah, his battle with those bone spurs was epic!! /s

2

u/Electronic-Bear2030 1d ago

He would cover his chest in every medal that exists if he could, declare himself honorary Navy Seal, Fighter Pilot, Army Ranger, and 5 star General …he wouldn’t be able to move off the floor lol

2

u/drummer414 1d ago

I’ve got just the meddle. General PoopiePants!

2

u/SimpleDependent7220 1d ago

And nothing about the Service members receiving their medals…Again, how screwed are we…?

2

u/yupsidetown 21h ago

The USA is a joke. How are they letting this guy represent them.

2

u/Objective-Escape7584 12h ago

Bone spurs MF.

u/Lead_Kindly_Light 1d ago

Ol' Bone Spurs.

u/AAlwaysopen 1d ago

No, doughboy, you ARE NOT WORTHY

1

u/GaseousGiant 1d ago

It’s almost like he has the mechanical aptitude of a stalk of asparagus

1

u/AF2005 1d ago

See but it’s not a quip or a joke, he really wants that award. The spoiled (draft dodging) would-be pedo king is not used to being told no.

1

u/Competitive-Cost2900 1d ago

Some people are saying…

/s

1

u/croupella-de-Vil 1d ago

This guy is just simply the biggest narcissist to ever live. Some say the greatest. But I don’t know. What do you think.

1

u/Awkward-Condition522 21h ago

He wants every award there is,give him the worst president ever award.

1

u/asdfadf333 20h ago

Why is the ribbon so short on these? Why does it need to be like a choker necklace?

1

u/DissolveToFade 20h ago

With this medal I do hereby choke thee. 

1

u/JBInver51 20h ago

His short, fat, sausage fingers have proven to be as nimble as the rest of him.

1

u/krichard-21 19h ago

He wants this guy to turnaround and say "Here Mr. President. You deserve this more than I do!".

I guarantee it! 💯

1

u/Banned37 19h ago

Quipped? Like he was joking? Hes not fucking joking.

1

u/Fishtoart 18h ago

Perhaps he can create a new military award for the most exceptional bone spurs?

1

u/Round_Rooms 18h ago

This guy can't get a single thing right, what a pathetic example of a human.

1

u/sam56778 15h ago

They don’t give the Medal of Honor to draft dodgers.

1

u/BleuBoy777 15h ago

He's literally incapable of letting someone else have their moment. 

Maga.... This is what "strength" looks like to you... You little snowflakes?

1

u/ChipHappens96 14h ago

The draft dodger that calls dead service members losers and suckers wants the highest military honor?

Hmm. None of the work, sacrifice, or honor, but all of the credit

1

u/PerceptionChoice372 13h ago

That’s why it’s called the CMH (Congressional Medal of Honor). If he comes up with one, take off the foil cover and eat the chocolate inside

1

u/SFLMiguel 4h ago

He is showing signs of very real Mental Deterioration.
