Like anything he touches, he'll defile that one, too.
No self respecting person will want to accept his medal, so that already limits the options.
Then, as he does everything, he'll just use the medal as yet another way to honor those who kiss his ass and, more importantly, anger and try to get revenge on the rest of America that he deems "my enemies."
My prediction: He'll happily sign on to the rightwing campaign to give it to James O'Keefe for Project Veritas smears of CNN. And probably Newt, Limbaugh, Huckabee, Sarah Palin and some rightwing has-been like Chuck Norris or James Woods.
It's going to be nauseating.
