He has absolutely no class at all. Someone should give him a shovel.
Donald Trump gifted Purple Heart, says he 'always wanted' one - CNNPolitics.com
Ashburn, Virginia (CNN) — A military veteran supporting Donald Trump gifted the Republican nominee his Purple Heart Tuesday, prompting Trump to say he "always wanted to get the Purple Heart" and this was "much easier" than serving in combat.
Purple Hearts are awarded to service members who suffer wounds in combat.
"Something very nice just happened to me. A man came up to me and handed me his Purple Heart," Trump told supporters at a campaign event here. "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.'"
Trump received the veteran on stage at the start of the rally to receive the decoration.
"I always wanted to get the Purple Heart. This was much easier," Trump said.

I just seen this about five minutes ago. I really hope he didn't say that or was misquoted. But even if it is true. The guy has said worse, and is pretty much like Teflon when it comes to the statements he makes. This will pass over.
I always wanted a Purple Heart, but I never actually wanted to earn one by going into combat and getting wounded or anything crazy like that. Having it literally handed to me us just so, so much easier.
Well, I'm sure he feels he's earned it because some people hurt his feelings by saying mean things about him. That's the same thing, right? Like his sexual escapades in the '60s were "his own personal Vietnam," this campaign can now be "his own, personal Afghanistan." Only, you know, without any personal risk whatsoever.
Gotta love politics - every move is open for critique.
OMGOMGOMG he put it in his pocket!!! The REAL story!!!!!!! In his pocket!!!!!!!
