I would defend someone's choice to discriminate against her for her appearance.
At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent.

This may be the oddest take here. His wife is going to make him run again? Why would she care?

This is the most naive comment I've seen in a minute.....but after all, this is the same dude who said that Reuters is the "gold standard" in news. 😂😂 I can totally see now why this guy's a libbie if he thinks Jill Biden is just an innocent babe in the woods who cares nothing about politics and political power. 🤦‍♂️

JD Vance defends Trump for saying a civilian award is 'much better' than the Medal of Honor

Trump steps in it and JD Vance makes it worst
Talk about intellectual lightweights
I am in awe every time I see a medal of honor on display. I want to know the story of incredible bravery
Medal of freedom??????????????????
Are you kidding me. No comparison
Are they trying to give the election away.

The town I was born in and current live, Weymouth, MA counts 5 MOH recipients among its historical residents. That is the most from any single city or town anywhere in the US. As well, my cousin grew up with and went to HS with another MOH recipient, from a few towns away. He received his posthumously (threw himself on a grenade in Afghanistan). If Donny said what he said here during a live appearance, Secret Service or no Secret Service, he would be tarred and feathered and ridden out on a rail. Which is also something we have historical experience with.

There is a long and involved vetting process for the MOH, which involves a vote in both houses of Congress and final approval of the President. The Medal of Freedom? Recipients are selected by the President and the President alone. There is no comparison as to the honor.

He doesn’t know the difference between political asylum and insane asylum. Thats why Hannibal Lecter keeps coming up in his rambling speeches.

I wish I was joking but I’m not.

This picture just screams if I hated myself just a little bit more I would let somebody shoot me. Self-hatred has to be behind this, it sure as hell ain't self love.
