    This needs to be on billboards in every swing state in the country.

    Trump says the civilian award is “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.”

    “She [Adelson] gets it, and she’s a healthy, beautiful woman, and they’re rated equal, but she got the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and she got it for — and that’s through committees and everything else.”

      I mean he’s already insulted veterans so much that I struggle to see this making any difference. Remember when he called fallen soldiers “losers”[1] and that he “prefers his war heroes that don’t get captured”?[2]

        You aren’t wrong that his track record on veterans is atrocious and his brainwashed base doesn’t care. But if it can convince a couple thousand people teetering to stay at home (or even better vote Harris), then it is worth it.
