It really seems like he has something against vets who have been injured or killed. It’s just bizarre. Who says things like this other than Trump? And Trump takes offense to being called weird? He IS weird.
He has no real concept of bravery, valor, and sacrifice. He doesn't understand why anyone would join the military. He's said it before. Part of that was being raised on a silver spoon, and the other reason is probably the sociopath in him. Everything in life revolves around him, and those who give him what he wants. It never was about him putting country first or sacrificing anything for his country. In his mind he is a man of valor.
Why even compare? MOH winners always have an incredible almost superhuman story behind them. If I was a military recruiter, I would make a comic book out of everyone of them.
He has no concept of being on a team or part of a group, he cares about himself 100% of the time. IMO he does these kinds of things because he has to top whatever is out there as a comp, if Harris has a huge crowd, his is bigger than even MLK I have a DREAM crowd, he has some real little man syndrome going on behind the orange make up
Why serve in the military and perform heroic actions for the sake of others when you can marry rich instead?
Trump says Medal of Freedom "equivalent" to and "much better" than Medal of Honor, sparking backlash from veterans - CBS News ... Medal of Honor recipient and retired Army Capt. Florent Groberg said on X that he has a "tremendous amount of respect for the Medal of Freedom and what it symbolizes" and that "it's important to recognize the contributions of civilians" but added, "I feel that it's not quite comparable to the Medal of Honor, as they are two very different awards with different criteria and significance." Retired Army Sgt. Maj. Kenneth Ramos echoed Groberg's assessment and drew a contrast between the Presidential Medals of Freedom Trump gave to Adelson and others and the Medal of Honor the former president authorized posthumously to Army Sgt. 1st Class Alwyn Cashe before leaving the White House. His widow, Tamara, accepted the medal on his behalf from President Biden in 2021. During a nighttime mounted patrol on Oct. 17, 2005 in Iraq's Salah Ad Din Province, Cashe and his soldiers found themselves in a dire situation when his unit was ambushed. Their Bradley Fighting Vehicle struck an improvised explosive device, engulfing them in flames while a barrage of gunfire ensued from enemy forces. After escaping the inferno, Cashe dove back into the vehicle to rescue his fellow soldiers, first pulling out his driver. As Cashe was extinguishing the flames on the driver, the veteran soldier's uniform, which was drenched in fuel, ignited. Cashe received severe second and third degree burns over nearly 72% of his body, per the U.S. Army. Despite the painful wounds, Cashe again re-entered the vehicle under the threat of fire and enemy bullets, to retrieve six additional soldiers and an Iraqi interpreter from the burning vehicle. When reinforcements arrived, Cashe insisted his soldiers receive medical attention first and refused to be evacuated to follow-on medical care before them. Cashe died on Nov. 8, 2005 at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas. "Cashe knew the danger in his attempts to rescue his fellow soldiers and absolutely cannot be placed in the same category of a civilian award," Ramos told CBS News. "It dishonors his memory as a hero, but also devalues the Medal of Honor coming from someone hoping to be the commander-in-chief of our armed forces again."
While you are joking about this, Trump has a serious mental issue with not being the smartest, bravest, or strongest person in the room. His insecurity leads him to belittle everything and everyone around him. He’s always talking down America and attacking those with honor and bravery—except, of course, those who give him money or shower him with praise.
But his website paints him as a warrior for you my friend. Show the man some respect. After all, on his mission statement he says that he takes the slings and arrows for you so that we can have our country back. Now, back to reality..... He gives the orders to his MAGA soldiers then sits back and watches the violence from afar.
I just... I'm not sure if he even meant it as an insult... It's just weird. Like why even go there lol? Why even shoot yourself in the foot for something that will work and so obviously weird to so many Americans?
