This orange-spray tanned geezer is his own worst enemy. It's hard to believe a lot of the remarkably stupid and callous stuff that comes out of his mouth. This is most especially true with respect to U.S. veterans.
The report linked below has video of him giving a speech last night in which he offered lavish praise of Miriam Adelson, a wealthy Jewish supporter to whom he had awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom a while back. Nothing wrong with that, but his ensuing comments comparing the Presidential Medal of Freedom (which presidents on both sides of the aisle have routinely given to wealthy supporters and insiders) ro the Congressional Medal of Honor were so stupid and insulting to Medal of Honor winners that they went even lower than his characterization of U.S. war dead as "suckers and losers."
You can see it for yourself if you open the link below, but for those of you who are disinclined to do so, Trump started out by noting, correctly, that the Presidential Medal of Freedom is the nation's highest civilian award. That's true. He then said it was "the equivalent of the Congressional Medal Honor,." It got worse from there. Cheeto then said "It's actually much better because everyone gets the Congressional Medal of Honor, that's soldiers. They're either in very bad shape because they've been hit so many times by bullets, or they're dead. She [Miriam Adelson] gets it, and she's a healthy, beautiful woman."
