You can't make this stuff up
 

A veteran gave Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump a Purple Heart medal before his Tuesday morning rally in Ashburn, Virginia, prompting Trump to comment that “this was much easier” than earning it himself.

The Purple Heart is awarded to members of the U.S. armed forces when they have been wounded or killed in war.

Trump told the audience during his rally that “something very nice just happened to me. A man came up to me and he handed me his Purple Heart.”

As the audience aahed, Trump continued: “I said to him, ‘Is that like the real one or is that a copy? And he said, ‘That’s my real Purple Heart. I have such confidence in you.’”

“And I said, ‘Man that’s big stuff.’ I always wanted to get the Purple Heart. This was much easier, but I tell you it was such an honor.”

Or....maybe you can make it up....like it was a video that caused Benghazi!

there is no edit button---and i'm not answering my own post but this seems too ludicrous to be true---i'd like to apologize for not fact checking

Donald Trump says he 'always wanted...

It looks like it's as easy to get a Purple Heart as it is getting a Little League Participation Trophy. When someone, especially an older person gifts you a Purple Heart who doesn't say "No thank-you sir, I'm not worthy?" instead of later saying "I always wanted to get the Purple Heart."

This guy wants to lose or has that learning disability that prevents you from understanding other human beings.

Don't bother attacking Hillary, I want to hear how you defend Trump for the newest heartless act.

Who cares?
And don't worry, I won't attack Hillary. Besides, no one is ever going to give Hillary a purple heart. Remember, she was only shot at in Bosnia, not hit. :throwtomatoes:

I'm a Vet and I really don't care. Trump says some dumb things. Hillary makes some dumb lies. And life goes on.

Were you throwing tomatoes at Hillary?
