Some supporter came up to Trump and handed him his purple heart. Trump pulled it out while he was addressing his supporters and said (I f*cking kid you not) he said "I always wanted to get a Purple Heart" WTF?!?! What is in this man's mind?

but I kind of wanted to punch him for saying that. There is no way he or I could ever get a purple heart because you have to be a hero in the military. My uncle received a purple heart in Vietnam. Trump treats it like another possession. There are so many reasons to dislike this man but he keeps coming up with new ones each day sometimes each hour.

And I'll bet that Purple Heart that was given to him by that other recipient has already been tossed aside as junk by this insensitive jerk. He is incapable of understanding the true meaning of the sacrifice required to actually earn one.

I'm a Vietnam Vet who was awarded the Purple Heart after I was blown up by a land mine. I watched good men die and get dismembered in that ugly war; and for that fat, pudgy, sick bastard to accept a Purple Heart from some lame brained ass hole just boils my butt something fierce.

May they both rot in hell!

that doesn't have a clue about sacrifice...it's beyond words.

I've said for years that if some people are half as loyal to their faith as they are to their politics, they'd be up for sainthood.

I've been patiently waiting for him to trigger America's gag reflex. This might have done it. It offends too many people. Only his most die-hard supporters can find any way to justify it.
