Trump awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom to singer Presley posthumously this month at the White House. President and CEO of Elvis Presley Enterprises Jack Soden accepted the award on behalf or the King of Rock and Roll

He asked his supporters: 'Do you see that, can you believe it? I always considered that a great compliment.'  

Trump is delivering remarks at two rallies on Monday evening in support of Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, who was forced into a run-off by her Democratic opponent on Election Day. 

At the first, he brought up the town's favorite son as he declared, 'I am thrilled to be back in Tupelo. I love Tupelo. All the thousands of hard-working American patriots. And the proud birthplace of the King of Rock and roll, Elvis. 

'Elvis! We love Elvis,' he said before bringing up the similarities he was said to share with the iconic performer. 'We love Elvis, don't we? In fact we just gave Elvis the Medal of Freedom at the White House,' he pointed out.

In mid-November, the president honored Presley posthumously with the highest-ranking award that can be bestowed upon a civilian during his first-ever ceremony at the White House of its kind.

He reminisced in the East Room event that 'crowds were enraptured by Elvis’s 'electric performances and unbreakable bond with his fans' during his lifetime.

'In fact, at the end of a performance, oftentimes the fans would go so wild — I was there once in Las Vegas, at the Hilton. The fans were ripping the place apart, screaming. They were going crazy. And they announced, “Elvis has left the house. Elvis…” 

He said to laughter, 'If they didn’t say that, I think I’d still be there. Maybe I wouldn’t be here. 'But they had to do that. “Elvis has gone. Elvis has left.'

Accepting the award on Presley's behalf at the event President and CEO of Elvis Presley Enterprises Jack Soden. 

Trump did not make the comparison between himself and the actor and singer who passed away at Graceland in 1977 during the ceremony at the White House.

‘I shouldn’t say this,...

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
