Trump, of course, did none of those things. He is a narcissist and insists on making up fake awards and lying about what he has done.

I think Trump’s advisors told him to joke about it because of a montage video of Trump telling about a dozen different audiences that he was named “ man of the year” in Detroit. Trump is unable to verify details of this award and no one has ever heard of such an award. Trump looked foolish and the best way to address this is humor.
No way to prove someone is due an award ... but but but Trump claims he got one and can’t verify it exists.
It really isn’t my opinion. There ARE criteria for winning an award so prestigious. Please share with me what criteria former President Obama met to be given it. I’ll wait.

Trump claimed he won an award, many many times, bragged about it in front of large audiences. The award doesn't exist.KnotaDinghy wrote: ↑Fri Aug 23, 2019 12:32 pmHilarious reply.Lemons wrote: ↑Fri Aug 23, 2019 1:19 amThat’s your opinion because of your dislike of him.

And you are talking about actual verifiable awards given and don't like that Obama was awarded them. How is this related to the president claiming he was awarded "man of the year" when he wasn't?

We get it you don't like President Obama and don't think he deserved awards, that's your opinion and you're free to have it. The Medal of Honor is awarded to those who served in the military, trump doesn't deserve that because he didn't serve. He was a coward that made up a fake ailment to stay home.KnotaDinghy wrote: ↑Fri Aug 23, 2019 12:57 am Obama receivesd awards and accolades he wasn’t due.

No it wasn't a joke. He thinks he deserves to get awards and medals, even when they don't actually exist. It's just part of the Trump supreme narcissist mentality.

Maybe he should get the Masterchef trophy! From what I’ve seen on the show, it’s a big deal. And I’m sure he can manage to crack and egg without getting a lot of gooey stuff in his fingers with a little practice!

He was very clearly saying that in jest. I've been hearing about this latest outrage all week. I was sure he said it in some serious manner or something with all the flap it caused. I finally saw the clip yesterday. It was very clearly said in a humorous manner.Ledina60 wrote: ↑Thu Aug 22, 2019 5:21 am https://www.politico.com/amp/story/2019 ... or-1470950
At AMVETS award ceremony, Trump said he should get the Medal of Honor , being the “ chosen one” for dealing with China. He said he almost gave himself one.
( he’s not a vet... )
Joke or serious?

Man you all know some want the LIAR-N-THIEF to do the same.
How much praise did the LIAR-N-THIEF get when he dropped MOAB?
"The U.S. decision to drop the bomb was striking for several reasons. America’s biggest non-nuclear bomb–which costs sixteen million dollars, and three hundred million dollars to develop—was used on one of the smallest militias it faces anywhere in the world. isis-k is estimated to have only about seven hundred fighters in Afghanistan, compared to the eighty-five hundred U.S. troops and the hundred and eighty thousand Afghan troops on the ground there."
