I wonder - Was Dozing Donnie wearing his Purple Hearts for the ceremony today?

Amazingly, I thought he had only one, but - NO - he has TWO Purple Hearts! Of course, both were gifted to him by actual veterans. The only bullet (?) DD ever took was in Butler, PA.

Remember these?

A Vietnam War veteran gave his own Purple Heart to Donald Trump during a town hall event in Fayetteville, North Carolina, on Friday to honor the former president's response during the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, it was reported: https://bit.ly/4duoYAk


At least he hasn't claimed (yet) that he earned them, but as his dementia progresses, it wouldn't surprise that he goes into "stolen valor" territory.

Doxycycline (for chlamydia)
Ceftriaxone (for gonorrhea)
Penicillin (for syphilis)

Surely, Dozing Donnie isn't a stranger to these antibiotic "awards".

those he called "suckers and losers" for serving in his stead. And has two Purple Hearts to show for it. A real American HEro. Quick, somebody give him a prize.

No guarantees it's destined for Dozing Donnie, but...

FIFA President Gianni Infantino and Trump have built a strong alliance heading into next year’s World Cup, which will be jointly hosted by the U.S., Canada and Mexico. The pair crossed paths on Wednesday — the day FIFA announced its new prize — in Miami, where they both gave speeches at a conference of business leaders. Infantino has previously made clear that he sees Trump as a champion of world peace.

The award will be announced on Dec. 5 in Washington when the World Cup draw is held at the Kennedy Center, the arts venue that Trump has reshaped this year.

"All 'growed' up" version of a frekin' PARTICIPATION PRIZE.

"See little Donnie? You won something too."

For all he's got (or better still, has STOLEN), still the vainest neediest, most envious mfkr there is. Pathetic.
