Of course, both the stars chosen for the honor are supporters of the President.
The National Medal of Arts recipients honored at the White House on Wednesday were Toby Keith and Ricky Skaggs.
A White House press release on the medal recipients explains why the two men were chosen.
Keith was chosen “for making extraordinary contributions to American music,” according to the White House.
Skaggs was chosen “for his contributions to the American music industry.”
“I was a Democrat my whole life.
“I’ve never been a registered Republican.
It just keeps people off balance.
They don’t know what to think.”
“So Bill Belichick has more honor than Toby Keith,“one Twitter user observed.
The legendary bluegrass mandolin player explained his support of Trump in a 2016 interview withGospel Herald.
A lifelong Republican, he truly believed the former reality host was the man for the job.
“I love his [Trump’s] enthusiasm and his fighting spirit.
He’s not going to let anyone bulldoze over him because he’s a bulldozer himself.
Mr. Trump is someone who tears down and rebuilds,” said the musician.
