President Trump on Wednesday tweeted an edited image of himself awarding a Medal of Honor to the dog injured in the U.S. military operation in Syria that led to the death of ISIS leader Abu Baker al-Baghdadi over the weekend.

The photo, which has a watermark with the Twitter handle of The Daily Wire, shows the dog edited into a 2017 photo of Trump who, in the original, was awarding the Medal of Honor to James McCloughan, a retired Army captain who saved dozens of lives during the Vietnam War.

The image is one of several that The Daily Wire has shared on its social media platforms in the days after the ISIS raid.

In his tweet, Trump captioned the photo, “AMERICAN HERO!”

OMG! He’s demeaning the MOH! Except it’s not the MOH, it’s a make believe, photoshopped ribbon with a dog paw medal. Nothing inappropriate and quite clever.

Dear Politically bigoted infantile morons at “the Hill”

The Medal of Honor is not a paw print. Please get your hysteric infantile moronic TDS under control. You are making total assclowns of yourself here.

....

What you said!

The Left are indeed idiots!

In all seriousness, has anyone started a petition to get that dog awarded a Dickin Medal?

Too bad the collar straps weren’t made to look like bacon strips. :)

Dickin Medal given in the Uk for “animals that have displayed conspicuous gallantry or devotion to duty while serving or associated with any branch of the Armed Forces or Civil Defence Units.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dickin_Medal

Chips, a U.S. Army dog that attacked a machine-gun nest during World War II was posthumously awarded Britain’s highest honor for animal bravery:

Lucca, a Marine Corps German Shepard won the medal after losing a leg in Afghanistan:

These four military dogs won the American Humane Lois Pope K-9 Medal of Courage:

Then there’s also Sergeant Reckless, the Army horse that actually was promoted to the rank during the Korean War:

Terrific.

I just hope the dog gets some great food too, as a reward, in addition to the medal.

Great dog.

1. The Left has been taunting our beloved President or not having a pet at the White House.

2. Mooselimbs hate dogs.

3. OUR President is giving honor to what the left and mooselimbs despise.

Anyone with a functioning brain and a normal sense of humor understood that it was photoshopped, and that POTUS thought it was cool, so he retweeted it.

I guess that leaves out a lot of Trump haters.

Minds so deranged by hatred for the CIC that they’re unable to recognize obvious light-hearted humor.

The dog is clearly wearing blackface and her tongue leans to the right.

Proof that Trump is racist! /s
