Obama admitted he didn't think he deserved it. Trump has repeatedly said that he thinks he deserves it.
Trump could have easily said "no thank you, you deserve this award," and thought it's the gesture that counts. Instead, he comes off as the child you give an ice cream cone to just so they'll shut the **** up.
If he did, I missed it. If I was Obama, I would have refused to accept it and done it respectfully. There is no doubt that it was a DEI award.
I actually think Trump asked her to hand over the medal behind the scenes,and then they made it look like she was giving her award to him. This seems to be the most plausible thing to happen. I don't think anyone would give out a Nobel Prize to someone else. I think he basically got her to give it to him.
If she offered it to him, he should have politely refused.
After all this, he did is NOT a NPP winner. It won't show up in historical record. So he just looks bad.
Still... I am a Trump supporter for his agenda, not for him as a person.
