I know, I know. This comes straight from The Onion.

“That was a big day, Medal of Honor,” he continued. “Nothing like the Medal of Honor. I wanted one, but they told me I don't qualify, Woody. I said, 'Can I give it to myself anyway?'”

“They said, 'I don't think that's a good idea,’” Trump added as the crowd laughed.​

Woody is not some adult-themed reference. It is World War II veteran Woody Williams who earned his Medal of Honor for his actions during the Battle of Iwo Jima. Woody is the only surviving Marine to have received the Medal of Honor and the only surviving Medal of Honor recipient from the Pacific theater of war.

On the other hand, the con artist, in a panic that he might have to serve his country, raced about doing doctor shopping until he found one willing to claim he had bone spurs, sans any x-ray evidence. But that hasn't stopped him from claiming what a great person he is while denigrating Gold Star families or Silver Star and Purple Heart recipient who was tortured for months during the Vietnam War, a war he desperately avoided at all cost.

“I think I make up for it right now ... and I think I’m making up for it rapidly because we’re rebuilding our military at a level that it’s never seen before," he said in June.
