Trump could have said, "thank you sir for the gesture and the vote of confidence and your sacrifice for our country, but YOU earned that medal, I didn't" But of course, he didn't say that. I'm pretty sure Trump doesn't really know what a Purple Heart is.

A class act would have been to say "I thank you for your service" (he never said anything like that) "but I can't accept it" and then hand or pin it back on the vet. But for Trump is was all about himself and pocketing a trophy.
Gotta love politics - every move is open for critique.
OMGOMGOMG he put it in his pocket!!! The REAL story!!!!!!! In his pocket!!!!!!!
The honorable thing to do would have been to tell the veteran that he's honored but he can't take it, then pin it back on him and given him a proper military salute, like a Commander in Chief would do.

You have data to back that up or is it just your opinion?
It was reported that the vet Mr. Dorfman, said that it was a replacement - not the original one he received.
OK... this is off topic, but so very much in sync with how strange this political season is going... Dorf man? really? What a name - that poor guy! But, google is your friend, and it turns out that there are 3 Dorfman's who have received Purple Hearts.
Well..so much for the Palin Family standing side by side with the Trumpster...Anyone ever wonder why Palin an earlier supporter of Trump wasn't within smelling distance of their Convention??...Instead..like of screeching of Hillary haters YET don't bother mentioning Trump LOL
Point is..Trump as the Standard Sanction Leader of GOP is not supported by GOP folks!! Never mind Dems or Libs...It's a lose lose situation for Trump and I won't even address right now Trumps lack of Ground game..nor using data (not talking Twitter-Modes Operandi either) because having manpower to get out the vote has always been a MUST..going way back..BUT Trump just loves to spew his incoherent sometimes repetitive rhetoric..loses his trend of thought..but instead..responds to audience..and often it is then he makes his GAFFS!!
He's a train wreck and unless he gets an intervention ( previous one's lasted a day or so) plus appropriate meds and attitude adjustment..He's going to be considered a LOSER..Something he LOVES to label others with...
But side by side..the numbers SHINE on him as being TOP Loser..LOL..Of course typical Trump will tout top rating Loser as some sort of Badge of honour!! All Media is good..LOL
