Donald Trump jokes about ‘having threesome’ together with his two ‘beautiful’ sons

The US President stood up on stage and joked about wanting to “have a threesome” with his “two beautiful sons” during a Congressional Medal of Honour ceremony

Donald Trump joked about “having a threesome” with his two “beautiful” sons during a bizarre speech. The US President, 80, suggested he would give himself and one of his sons the Congressional Medal of Honor, the highest U.S. military decoration.

That would make them the third father-son pair to be given the award. Or as Trump put it: “As I see my two beautiful sons sitting there, I think I’m going to give one to myself and one to them and we’ll have a threesome.

“I’ll pick out one of the two. I’ll give them the congressional medal of honor for something… for their genius at hunting. I’ll get one for taking on Russia, Russia, Russia or something. We’ll have a third pair.”

The Medal of Honor is intended to honor service members that distinguish themselves in combat “conspicuously by gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty.”

Trump – who was in North Dakota to speak at the dedication ceremony for the new Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library – added: “No, I’m only kidding… this is is dangerous to say because the fake news is up there. They’re all over the place.”

Roosevelt is the only president to have received the Medal of Honor, awarded to him in 2001 by then President Bill Clinton for leading a charge up San Juan Hill in Cuba during the Spanish-American War.

His son, Theodore Roosevelt Jr., was awarded the medal for his actions on D-Day during World War II. His citation reads: “His valor, courage, and presence in the very front of the attack and his complete unconcern at being under heavy fire inspired the troops to heights of enthusiasm and self-sacrifice.”

Trump had earlier suggested he wanted to award himself the medal, telling a gathering: “I want to give one to myself, but they tell me and I’m not allowed to.

“My son over here, both of them. I said ‘I’d love to give one of them to me, what have I done to deserve it?’ And they couldn’t think of anything, so I’m not happy with them today.”

The first father-son pair to have won the medal is Arthur and Douglas MacArthur. Arthur earned the award for actions taken during the Civil War and Douglas earned the award for “preparing the Philippine Islands to resist conquest” during World War II.
