I could not give less of a fuck about that award or who does or doesn’t deserve it, but that’s some pretty damn funny trolling on the Biden administration’s part.
Better than what he was doing with the pardons anyway.
I nominate Stormy Daniels, E. Jean Carrol, Ivana Marie Zelníčková, and Marla Maples.
Oh that would be amazing.
Now, if Biden would do something good for the US like passing an executive order protecting us from the worst of Trump and Project 2025. Won’t happen, but would be nice.
Agreed, but I’ll take what I can get.
I was incredibly mad before I realized I was reading George Soros, not George Santos. Now I’m only kinda mad
Ever since Trump gave that award to the drug addict, AM radio cockrider Limbaugh it’s become meaningless.
Trolling would pretty well have to be giving it to undeserving people just to piss someone off. I would get a laugh out of all the uproar it’ll cause in the red hat circles though if I ever frequented their spaces. Clinton & Soros particularly.
giving it to undeserving people just to piss someone off
Like Clinton and Soros?
Rachel Maddow would be a good troll awardee.
I don’t know, didn’t get into who does or doesn’t deserve it… Maybe Pelosi could get added in?
She got it the previous year
Where is the trolling?
Yeah, Clinton and Soros are the obvious trolls, but it goes deeper. He also awarded posthumous medals to Robert F. Kennedy (father of you-know-who) and George Romney (father of that other guy). Kind of a subtle reminder to those two that they didn’t get their political influence o their own merits.
Heck, even Bill Nye (the Science Guy) is getting one. Another’s the reminder that we can’t just ignore Science when it is inconvenient.
But still, nothing can top when Trump gave the medal to Rush Limbaugh a few years ago. That is when the award jumped the shark. It’s rather meaningless after that.
Giving the highest civilian award to Clinton and Soros? Republicans are going to go nuts.
Did you see which Democrats Biden gave it to the previous year?
Don’t think anyone is going nuts over a medal that became a joke long time ago.
Edit:spelling
You do know these are the people who went apeshit when Obama wore a tan suit and said he like dijon mustard, right?
So what you’re saying is, those people all go apeshit no matter what? Or am I missing your point?
They go apeshit more if you troll them. And it’s funnier.
If you stay out of the conservative echo chamber, you might not be aware that Hillary Clinton and George Soros are cartoonishly evil wizards who simultaneously control everything and are violently inept. Imagine Rita Skeeter and Vigo the Carpathian getting awards, and that’s sort of what this looks like to MAGA-addled brains.
