@dailymailpolitics: Former President Barack Obama admitted not awarding Dolly Parton the Presidential Medal of Freedom 'was a mistake' in an interview from 2020. Parton famously refused twice to accept the medal from President Donald Trump because of her husband's illness and later because of concerns surrounding COVID and travel. Parton also refused to accept the medal from Biden because taking it could look political. #news #politics #dollyparton #barackobama

Dolly Parton never received the Presidential Medal of Freedom because she personally turned it down multiple times. Despite offers from both the Trump and Biden administrations, she declined the honor, stating she didn't feel she deserved it and preferred to avoid politics
