Fury ignites over Trump's 'offensively disgusting' joke about Congressional medal

President Donald Trump's "offensively disgusting" joke about the Congressional Medal of Honor on Thursday rankled political analysts and observers.

Trump traveled to Rome, Georgia, to speak to a crowd at the Coosa Steel Corporation. During his speech, Trump said he was considering giving himself the Congressional Medal of Honor, which is reserved for military members who exhibit acts of valor. Trump, who never served in the military, made a similar remark back in 2019, according to reports.
