the presentation included a sappy snippet of "How Great Thou Art" which Trump didn't recognize. Shittiest of shit shows all around.

They should refuse the award on behalf of his estate.

accepted the medal. Will probably be put on display at Graceland with no mention of who awarded it.

for the award to Elvis. Did you catch the look on his face as it was playing? He looked up, savoring the music, as if to say, "Yeah, even Elvis knows I'm great and is singing about ME, ME, ME".

tRump looked ill during that entire presentation. While Scalia's blurb was being read, tRump was gulping as though trying to hold down vomit, was twitching and generally looked uncomfortable. Also, if you notice, the ceremony began by tRump (badly) reading the bios, and about half way through, switched over to one of the military announcers in attendance to finish off. Something was definitely happening to him during that time, and it wasn't good or healthy I was actually expecting to see him keel over...he was fighting it hard.
