Trump congratulates Purple Heart recepient

[left-of-center2012]

Saw a video clip on the NBC evening news where Trump gave a Purple Heart to a guy who lost a leg in Afghanistan.

Trump congratulated the guy, as if losing the leg was an accomplishment.

1. putz doesn't have a clue

Thank you for your sacrifice would have been nice, oh I forgot, he doesn't understand the word sacrifice.

2. I turned it immediately. They had it live on CNN

Used that guy for a prop. Milaria just stood there very out of place.

3. Appalling lack of empathy means dt can't comprehende

the soldier's sacrifice. Even after the Purple Heart fiasco in the campaign, he doesn't get it.

4. I'm surprised he didn't ask if he wanted to give the Purple Heart to him

You know, because he always wanted to get one.

6. The vet didn't look happy to be there

Especially when Trump bent over,
put his face next to the vet's head,
so Trump could get a couple photos.

Hey, Trump can use the photo op in his 2020 campaign.

At least he didn't announce how he only likes veterans who weren't wounded



(which is surprising)
