Bestowing the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Tiger Woods not only isn't the right thing to do, it further shows that President Donald Trump is bolstering his investments while in office.
Trump has taken every opportunity to improve his investments while he has been president.
Woods and Trump have a long history of business relationships. The following link to the Huffington Post article about them will provide the details. Most recently, Trump's organization hired Woods to design the new golf course in Dubai. (The course has not opened as of yet.)
In the article, it quotes:
"It's unusual for a president to give the award, widely considered to be the nation's highest civilian honor, to a person only midway through their career. It's even more unusual for a president to give the award to someone he's in business with.
"I can't think of something like this," Kyle C. Kopko, a professor at Elizabethtown College in Pennsylvania who authored a story on the award, told the New York Times on Sunday of Trump bestowing it on Woods."
President Trump must stop this type of activity.
