The Holy Bible part 3 judgment. Any human in the whole world should /would not obey to any human servant of God, preacher, teacher, evangelist, priest of God on and after 28th June 2019.

oh look another murderer being recognized.

Congratulations! A brave and worthy man. Thank you, for your service.

medal of honour presented by an honourless man to a another man being awarded for killing innocent people in a country that never ever threatened them or attacked them. welcome to the circus 🤹‍♂️

A five different silver spoon draft dodger shouldn't be allowed to touch a medal of Honor recipient

War criminals... this medal should have been made of white phosphorus

He doesn't look very happy about it.

Even the awarding of Military Honors to our bravest is still political...that is sad..there’s nothing we can do because Trump is the POTUS.. congratulations and God Bless Staff Sgt. Bellavia 🙏🙏🙏Thank you for your service.

too bad a coward like tRump has the authority to award a TRUE HERO the MEDAL OF HONOR something he doesn't have(honor)

if I were a war hero I wouldn't want bone spurs touching me anywhere lol

He deserves it. Sad he got it from bone spurs.

Trump trying to look good to the a Iraq leaders. Wow

Absolutely wonderful. Our president is a true patriot

Man you allowed yourself to be Dishonored, by letting a dishonorable individual pin that metal around your neck, he's a draft Dodger, Sergeant bone spurs AKA Agent Orange, Don Hitler

The only living war veteran to receive MOH ? That doesn't sound right to me. I've seen like 3 or 4 who received it.

Ah yes a medal for murdering thousands of people during an unnecessary war 🙄

What ruined the honor was the cowardly hands that put on the medal

Look who's giving someone the Medal of Honor, a draft Dodger

Very much deserved, but what a shame he had to receive his medal from such a dishonorable coward.

A shame this fine man couldn’t have received this honour from a real president.

La foto da una grima que te cagas

Imagine having to accept the honor of a lifetime from the biggest sack of human excrement on earth.

He didn't give it to him in a Happy Meal?

I can’t believe any veteran would let that slimy draft dodging con near them. ImpeachTheMF

I salute him.

Congrats! And Thank you Mr. PRESIDENT for being a TRUE American! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Our Military so Fierce!

Good thing he didn't have bone spurs eh Dummy? RealHero

From a zero to a hero

Oh the irony! A coward giving an award to a brave man. Yellow Donald.

Yet the honor is stained by the cheeto tinted commander in chief. Sgt. Bellavia deserves better.
