Donald Trump said this in a speech last week, “That (the Presidential Medal of Freedom) is the highest award you can get as a civilian. It’s the equivalent of the Medal of Honor (given to soldiers, sailors, marines, airmen, and coast guardsmen for acts of valor in combat), but civilian version; it’s actually much better because everyone who gets the 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 (Miriam Adelson, multi-billionaire and GOP mega-donor) gets it (in 2018 from Trump), and she’s a healthy, beautiful woman, and they’re rated equal, but she got the Presidential Medal of Freedom.”
This is a direct quote from Donald J. Trump, GOP idol, former president and strong contender once again.
