Greg Price pointed out, “Ted Kennedy left a woman to drown in a lake and Obama gave him the presidential medal of freedom.”

Trump announced Limbaugh as the recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom at his last State of the Union address in February 2020.

Trump stated, “Almost every American family knows the pain when a loved one is diagnosed with a serious illness.

I will now ask the First Lady of the United States to present you with the honor. Please.”
