“The person I’m giving the Medal of Freedom too next week is very deserving.” President Trump told reporters outside the White House Friday.

“They are a fighter, a winner. This person has decades of tireless devotion to every single American.” The President continued. “Chances are they have even helped you in your day to day life.”

The Presidential Medal of Freedom is generally used to recognize those people who have made a significant impact to the national interest of the United States, world peace, cultural or significant other endeavors.

“Monday, I will bestow our highest civilian honor to someone who has been there when I need them the most.” Trump said, “Of course I am talking about Clippy. The little paperclip man that is part of Microsoft Word.”

Most people found Clippy to be annoying in the late 90s and early 00s. The feature drew negative feedback from many users.

“Clippy was always there to help me.” The president said, “He would ask me if I was writing a letter. Clippy knew if I made changes to a document, and he would ask me if I would like to save. Clippy was always there to guide me while I used my computer.”

Microsoft disabled the Office Assistant function known as Clippy by default in Office XP for Windows. Clippy was completely removed from both the Mac and PC versions of Office in 2007-2008.

The President finished the press conference by letting everyone know that Clippy is an American hero. He reminded everyone to type a subject line in an email while using outlook. Without Clippy nobody would know what an email was about.
