I guess the vet has Alzheimer’s. Poor guy.
So does Trump. Maybe put them both in a nursing home.
How cute! They can be roommates!
Trump belongs in a maximum security nursing home
Cult self-sacrifice. Please make it stop somebody.
If you can’t think of anyone who deserves a medal for injury during war time than a draft dodger who sat in luxurious hotels during a war, and has never served in the military, then you’re a fucking idiot, and a disgrace to all soldiers everywhere.
Can the military (Edit: Commander in Chief) revoke those medals?
Not The Purple Heart, but it doesn't matter. Bone spurs Donnie wasn't awarded it by the military, so it means less to/for him than my grandfather's purple hearts mean to me. I have them, but that's just cause I was the only grandchild that served in the military. They don't confer any benefits to me, and I wouldn't be caught dead wearing one.
The fact that it can't be revoked is probably why he's gotten one of those rather than The Congressional Medal of Honor, which absolutely can be revoked.
Meanwhile, back in 1971, John Kerry threw his ribbons on the Capitol Steps in protest of the war in Vietnam he had returned from.

John Kerry did not, apparently, have bone spurs.
Iirc the Purple Heart medal is the only award that does not require approval and is given once you meet the requirements. As a result, I believe it can't be revoked since you can't uninjure yourself.
Sad to hear that veteran cannot think of more than one person.
and thats why american comedy is dead.
If his doctor isn't instantly adding severe dementia to his medical record, he is part of health insurance fraud.
I bet Trump immediately hawked it for cash
Tossed in the trash.
Welp, once a boot.
