This is a terrible look for the Harris campaign.
In a significant show of support, over a dozen recipients of the Congressional Medal of Honor have officially endorsed former President Donald J. Trump in his 2024 presidential campaign. This esteemed group, comprising 15 honored veterans who have bravely served in conflicts such as Iraq, Afghanistan, and Vietnam, issued a powerful statement emphasizing their commitment to the values that define our great nation.
“We, the Medal of Honor recipients, stand united in our support for Donald J. Trump as President of the United States,” they declared. This endorsement reflects a deep-seated belief in American citizenship as a cherished privilege and highlights the importance of patriotism in fostering a strong nation. These veterans recognize that the sacrifices made by our armed forces are vital to safeguarding American freedoms.
Their statement underscores the necessity of integrity within our institutions, emphasizing that public trust is built upon a firm commitment to the U.S. Constitution and the solemn oaths taken by those who serve. They affirm that courage and valor shine brightest in times of adversity, and they express unwavering allegiance to the United States.
Additionally, the Medal of Honor recipients advocate for honoring our veterans, ensuring they receive the respect and support they deserve. They also stress the importance of secure borders to protect our nation from adversaries, reflecting a core tenet of Republican values.
The group firmly believes in the necessity of free and fair elections, reinforcing the idea that every citizen should have the right to participate in the democratic process. They also took a pointed jab at Vice President Kamala Harris’s running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, highlighting that “fabricating military service is beneath the dignity of a veteran.” This reference comes in light of allegations against Walz regarding the nature of his military service, stirring debates about honor and integrity in leadership.
Ultimately, the Medal of Honor recipients assert that “the enemies of freedom must be defeated,” and they celebrate the American flag as a potent symbol of liberty. Their heartfelt conclusion declares, “We believe the United States of America is the greatest nation the world has ever imagined. We pledge our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor to every American.”
With this endorsement, they reaffirm their belief in Donald Trump as the leader who embodies these ideals, rallying Republican supporters around a shared vision for the future of America.
