A Patriot recognizes how meaningless the award would be coming from Trump. I have never heard of anyone refusing the honor.
"New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick has turned down an opportunity to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Donald Trump.
The six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach said in a statement released Monday night that while he was “flattered” by the offer, “the tragic events of last week occurred, and the decision has been made not to move forward with the award.
“Above all, I’m an American citizen with great reverence for our nation’s values, freedom and democracy,” he said."
