https://www.rawstory.com/jen-psaki-2676622110/"Tonight, after so much suspense, with so many worthy nominees in the running ... the Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, has just announced the winner of the inaugural America First Award," said Psaki.

"The president has done so much for the American people, and we want to honor him in some small way, some token of our appreciation for his leadership," said Johnson in the clip. "And so tonight, we have created a new award. We have we're going to do something we've never done before. We're going to honor him with a new award that we'll present annually from this point forward. But he is the suitable and fitting recipient of the first-ever America First Award. We can think of no better title for what that is. That's just beautiful. Golden statue here."

"Guys, there is even a golden statue. You can't make it up," said Psaki. "That's right, Little Mike Johnson and all those Republicans have just created yet another participation trophy to give their very special boy in the White House to make sure he feels good about himself. And I know what you're thinking. Did the inaugural FIFA Peace Prize winner really just take home the inaugural America First Award? What are the chances? The same guy who also won the undisputed Champion of Beautiful Clean Coal Award just last month. Is that even legal?"
*****
"It's like the EGOT for insecure manbaby presidents, all of these awards together," said Psaki. "And look, any other adult in this country would feel completely embarrassed by the patronizing way that Trump is showered with fake awards on a near-daily basis. That's just how Republicans have to treat this president. And it's not just the fake awards, because every day some member of this administration says something straight to the camera that tells you really all you need to know about the cult of Donald Trump. And today and there are a lot of competitors for this, but today, the award for the most revealing quote goes to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, when she said this in response to a question about the war in Iran."

The decision by the Republican congressional leadership to create and award Donald Trump the first-ever America First Award at a National Republican Congressional Committee fundraiser left the panel on Morning Joe both amused and baffled on Thursday morning.
The MS NOW segment began with a clip of House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) telling attendees, We're going to honor him with a new award that we will present annually from this point forward. But he is the suitable and fitting recipient of the first-ever America First award. We can think of no better title for what that is. That's this beautiful golden statue here, appropriate for the new golden era in America.
That led a wide-eyed co-host Mika Brzezinski to blurt Stop! as Joe Scarborough laughed and offered, You know, it's because the FIFA Peace Prize award has gone so well......
And they're kind of, you know, forgive me, they're infantilizing him a little bit, but here's a trophy. Here's an iPad to watch bombs exploding in Iran to color your view of how the war is going.
They treat him like a child, he added. If I were him, I would be offended by it. But of course, I don't think he is.
