Trump's Medal of Honor Joke Sparks Debate | Hip-Hop News

Published 1 week, 6 days ago
Description

Trump stirred controversy at the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library opening by joking he’d award himself and his sons the Medal of Honor — calling it a “threesome” — and praising his sons for their “genius at hunting.” He’d earlier said he wanted the medal but was told he wasn’t eligible, clearly frustrated. The remark reignited debate, especially since TR is the only president to have received the Medal of Honor — awarded posthumously in 2001 — and his own son also earned one for WWII bravery. Meanwhile, the MacArthur family holds another rare distinction: the first father and son duo to both receive the Medal of Honor in separate wars.
