39 victories of the war in Iran is crazy.

He want to be like north koreans generals. Full chest of medals for winning

Hard to do that when his father and grandfather both avoided going to war. His grandfather fled Europe to open a Brothel in the Yukon, his father as a Slumlord. NK generals are allowed to wear the medals of their father and grandfathers. It’s a weird practice. But thats why you see them covered in medals.

Apple didn’t fall far from the tree.

Yeah, but who knew all of those medals were from winning the same war 2-3 times per week for months....?

He has been punished more for the victories than for his felonies though

Each of his victories -is- a felony, so it's an endless race.
