Donald Trump’s ‘Threesome’ Quote Involving His Sons Gets Attention

The 80-year-old POTUS attended the opening of the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library in North Dakota this week, when he joked that he would like to see himself and his sons, Eric Trump or Donald Trump Jr., receive Congressional Medals of Honor.

“Now, as I see my two beautiful sons sitting there, I think I’m going to give one to myself, one to them, and we’ll have a threesome,” Trump said.

“Okay, I’ll pick out one of the two. I’ll give them the Congressional Medal of Honor for something for their genius at hunting, and I’ll get one for taking on Russia, Russia, Russia, or something, and we’ll have a third pair now,” he said, adding he was “only kidding.”

“No, I’m only kidding,” he said. “This is dangerous to say, because the fake news is up there all over the place, and when I joke… I learned early on, don’t be sarcastic in politics.”

He earlier made similar remarks about the medal: “There are very few people who have them. I want to give one to myself, but they tell me I’m not allowed to. My son over here, both of them, I said ‘Fellas, I’d love to give one of them to me. What have I done, where I deserve it,’ and they couldn’t think of anything. So I’m not happy with them today.”
