He is truly removed from reality if he thinks he deserves the Nobel peace prize.
I don’t think deserving things (or not) is really a relevant consideration for people like that. They just have things that they want for whatever reason and the power (or not) to have them
Remember how Putin stole a Super Bowl ring from Bob Kraft? He just asked to look at it then walked out of the room with it. I bet Trump would do exactly the same thing with a Nobel medal if he had the chance.
Trump did nearly the same thing with some young injured military guy’s Purple Heart. Trump told him much he admired it, obviously fishing, so the guy offered it to Trump, probably never imagining that Trump would actually take it.
Instead, Trump said “I’ve always wanted one of these!” And kept it.
Literal Kindergarten behavior.
he stole money from a cancer charity for kids, he would do this.
Lol is that a real thing?
I had to look this up. Omg holy crap, that might have actually happened. How sad. Honestly after that I kinda hope they just made him another one and didn’t tell pooty LOL.
He’s basically a grown up Varuka Salt
The weird prototype gum ended in a orange Creamsicle instead of a blueberry pie, apparently.
That was Violet Beauregarde’s fate. Veruca was the one who was a bad egg (or a bad nut, in the book/Depp adaptation).
But in keeping with the theme, Trump wins nothing. He loses, good day sir.
He’s basically a
grown upolder Varuka SaltFTFY
He could always resign?

Overgrown toddler mentality. He doesn’t use logic, doesn’t consider other people, fairness, accomplishments, optics, etc. He just wants it, hasn’t been told ‘no’ enough, and has Big Feelings about it…
He knows he’s dying and is having an end of life crisis. He desperately wants to be liked by the same type of cunts that pick nobel piece prices as sail on mega yatchs before he starts getting fucked in the ass by Satan.
pineapple, in his case, it would be a very LARGE DURIAN.
his mind became mush from all that cocaine abuse, to the point hes permanently incontinent.
His legacy will have been that of having been the biggest embarrassment in American history.
It will be (and already is) much, much worse than just an embarrassment.
We will be lucky if we have a democracy after his term.
It looks like he’s reforming the government so that it follows the dictates of the President who is wholly owned by the billionaire oligarchs of the world.
We’ll survive this. Trust me.
Probably not if there is another civil war or the nation balkanizes.
That civil war is a few years late.
Not going to happen, everybody’s glued to TVs and social media, too bothersome to get out of the couch and do something.Yeah. I listened to an episode of ologies about this.
Age is a big part of it. Like no one over 30 wants to risk everything for something they believe in.
The average age is older than it was in the civil war era.
I think it’ll be similar to Nixon. They were similar people, anyway.
Want to read something even more ridiculous? Israelis nominate radical settler leader Daniella Weiss for Nobel Peace Prize
That’s not ridiculous, that’s par for the course and just another PR trick.
She, of course, never had a chance. The prize was rigged from the start because of Norway’s notorious antisemitism
Is that why over 20% of all recipients of a Nobel prize have at least one Jewish parent?
I think it was a joke.
It seemed pretty obvious to me. People whooshed on that one hard.

Lemmy users out here proving sarcasm tags necessary even as they hate on them
Or you know, maybe it was the fact she is a leader in something a majority of the world considers a war crime?
Or you know anti-genocide policies 🙄
22% of Nobel laureates have been Jewish you ding dong.
Pretty sure they were joking.
I’m laughing that the committee awarded the prize to a Venezuelan. Trump is going to be raging all day - all caps screeching about how he deserved to win, how Maria Machado is a loser, about how many conflicts he resolved etc. His government is going to be striking out against Venezuela (despite the winner being an opponent of the regime), Norway and the Nobel Prize organization. Fox will be on a rage fest too and all his proxies too. I guarantee that we’ll see esteemed members of Nobel getting detained at US borders, being deported etc because Trump is a sore loser little bitch.
Oh Trump is gonna be a little mean bitch girl about this for sure.
Why am I seeing so many comments with the word removed? Is there some filter in this instance tagging very specific words?
Yeah it’s the .ml instance filtering certain words that can be used as slurs such as b_tch and ret_rd.
Your instance is heavily censored, both in terms of that filter, and also your instance admins who are very, very ban-happy towards people who don’t share the same views they do. I recommend switching to a less controlling instance if that sounds like a problem to you.
I hadn’t heard that they gave it to someone else until I read your post.
That’s hilarious. Any day that Trump is unhappy is a good day. I love to see unhappy billionaires because they always thought their money would make them happy, and it doesn’t. Their solution is that they’ll finally be happy if they have even more.
Now we’re going to have to hear him cry about it for the next year, like the world-class sore loser that he is. He’ll probably try to get his followers to storm the Nobel HQ.
The bright side is that maybe he’ll go around settling wars and conflicts around the world. Maybe we can steer his naked ambition to do some good.
because Trump is a sore loser little bitch.
I think it’s worse than that. His cult members are sore for him. Trump probably won’t flag everyone he wants detained, but his disciples will do it for him to please daddy.
Not that I think Trump’s not petty enough, I think he’s not capable enough.
Hopefully it changes Machados mind on calling him a visionary
Cool. How about them Epstein files? If you want a peace prize, they should be released to settle the matter finally. Then you can have your participation trophy Mr. Poopypants.
Yeppers. Childish tantrum incoming in 3…2…
Peace prize for Trump? The guy who started a war? With his own citizens?
He also thinks he’s smart, attractive, beloved by all Americans, and good at golf. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and just thinks that’s the way it’s supposed to be. It’s never occurred to him that he might not deserve anything he wants, from companies to political victories to sexual conquests to accolades.
It never has, and never will, coz Fat Donny doesn’t do Learning.
He’s demented.
He’s peacefully murdering people in international waters.
So much peace. Big peace.
They’re all saying it. Every time I see somebody they’re saying the same thing. They say mister trump you’re the most peaceful guy I know. I heard somebody say that once and now they’re all saying it.
They all come up to me and stop and they say sir, I’m sorry to hear you lost the prize to a very nasty person. A real nasty person. I hear she didn’t even win in her own country you know, and I shake my head and I say it’s too bad, the state of things. A big shame. You know who else was big? Palmer. Let me tell you about palmer …
Bigly peacful
lol he can’t stand that Obama, the man who okayed drone striking civilians, got one and he didn’t
I’ve seen some people say Obama should get yet another prize this year just to fuck with Trump and I’m in full agreement.
Give it to Greta Thunberg
I doubt she’d bother showing up for it. It’s useless pageantry and she has work to do.
It’s a hell of a platform to talk to the world, though.
I kinda feared that they actually might do that.
I didn’t agree with him getting the award initially, but I am 100% on board with him getting a second.
Even two, let’s invent a new one. Nobel Prize of not being Trump or something alike.
Well he got the first one for not being Bush.
Make sure we get a Thanks Obama when handed over.
I’d like to see them give it to someone else called Donald just so they can do a dramatic pause when they read it out
Maybe Rosie O’Donnell
Imagine if they announce “Donald…” drumroll “Duck!” and a little RC car rolls up to place the prize on and a big screen shows an animated Donald Duck receiving it overlayed over the RC. Trump would probably have a senile moment just staring and not understanding, lmfao.
Maybe he should send the National Guard to Norway to help protect the prize.
this can be dealt with
After the Nazi invasion of Denmark this placed them in danger; it was illegal at the time to send gold out of Germany, and were it discovered that Laue and Franck had done so, they could have faced prosecution. To prevent this, de Hevesy concealed the medals by dissolving them in aqua regia and placing the resulting solution on a shelf in his laboratory at the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen. After the war, he returned to find the solution undisturbed and precipitated the gold out of the acid.

i wish he was directly and unambiguously mocked a lot more
Could we use his narcissism in a productive way?
What if we get it in his head that he hasn’t built any pyramid yet. At his age, Khufu had probably completed and was buried in his pyramid; the one that is still visible today, five millennia later. Where is Trump’s? What legacy will he leave us? He needs to start building asap
Once he gets convinced and starts appropriating funds for that, we only talk about that. Non stop. That way he doesn’t make any progress on his fascist agenda. Just a narcissist tar pit.
What could go wrong? Worst case scenario we have an American pyramid that is not a casino or a hunting and fishing store.
I have a feeling you’ve had a narcissist as a boss
Not really when I think of it. Maybe I have narcissist tendencies??
Jesus Christ tells us to love each other. Even the sick and the mad, we should love. Turning a mental disorder into an insult isn’t what Jesus would want. Jesus would be friends with people who have narcissistic personality disorder, because they’re society’s rejects, and because Elohim has been for six thousand years the god for the oppressed.
That’s an odd way to troll but you do you, I guess.
Trolls are people who try to upset others. I can understand why you’d think I was trying to upset you by spreading the teachings of Jesus Christ, and I can understand why you’d think I was trying to upset you by encouraging you to love the mad. But I’m doing neither, and I think your sense that I’m “trolling” in a weird way is your mind’s way of telling you that. I’m here to spread understanding and empathy, not hate.
Ah internetz and all of it’s rascally characters.
You just called Trump an oppressed in a very round about way in your last comment. Thats troll behavior. The man himself was pleaded to by a priestess to not stomp immigrants with a gestapo regime and he then proceeded to stomp immigrants with a gestapo regime. Jesus would want us to protect these immigrants.
I believe you think I called Trump oppressed. May I guess as to why? I think it’s because you’re of the opinion I simply must agree Trump has NPD, so if I call people with NPD oppressed, I am including Trump. But the only mental disorder I think Trump has is dementia. Narcissistic Personality Disorder is a disorder. It disables or distresses the one who has it. Trump does not look disabled or distressed to me, so he does not have the disorder. I’m far more concerned about the innocent people you’re vilifying who have a disorder you’ve chosen to treat with hate. They’ve done nothing to harm you. Please, think about what Jesus would do. Love your neighbour instead. And then we can all team up and sacrifice the orange Antichrist on a pyre.
They nailed that anarchist to a cross.
We are all each of us capable of the same love, the same kindness, the same wisdom, and the same miracles as Jesus Christ.
23 “Truly[d] I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. 24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. 25 And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”
Mark 11
Did you learn that in The Book of Strange New Things?
A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another
John 13:34
You can just say “yes”
Does his crypto scam count as a pyramid scheme? If so there’s his pyramid.
He will be buried under a bunch of GPUs and hard drives, where his wealth resides
Average age of someone during Khufus lifetime was 25-40 For a pharoh your probably looking at 40-50 Khufu died at 43
Oh thanks I was looking for that info! Wow trump could have had two pyramids by now, look at that!
I guess Trump is overdue then…
The hunting and fishing store pyramid at least is cool and has a nice view.
He has Trump towers.
Thin skinned snowflake is literally trying to start wars WITH STATES because they told him and his fascists to fuck off…
That child rapist deserves jail time, not a peace prize.
States’ Rights
Obama still living in his head rent free
And Obama’s drone strikes live rent free in the minds of an entire generation of people in the middle east. Still weird as fuck that he got a peace prize, but it would be much weirder if Trump received one.
Indeed. That any imperialist ruler or diplomat gets a peace prize is absurd. Especially from the USA, but any big power would also be absurd.
Nobody has made a stronger argument of Obama’s unworthiness as the man himself: https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/remarks-president-acceptance-nobel-peace-prize
Obama got the Peace Prize for creating hope after dubya … and partly in order to “bind” him to commuting to peace.
That was not one of the better selections.
Haha. Wouldn’t it be awesome if the next POTUS after Drumpus, was awarded a Peace Prize LOL ? It would be the only reason to wish Mushroom Dick a slightly longer life, so that he can enjoy that moment too.
I was wondering about that as well so I looked into the dates. Apparently Obama got the award in October 9, 2009, and some of the first controversial drone strikes under his administration were in March and April of 2009. Dude came out the gate drone striking and the Nobel Committee just ignored it.
“But amid the naked ambition behind Trump’s push for peace in Gaza, even those who have been highly critical of the war have hailed the deal as a major achievement.”
It seems like they are celebrating too early. Getting the hostages back doesn’t end the war. Once the hostages are returned, they’ll go right back to genocide.
Its probably out of character for them, but the Nobel Commitee should make an announcement of things they consider disqualifiers for the prize to see if they can push him into relenting on his fascism.
You know, "we will not consider any leader as a candidate who imposes or utilises martial law to rule their country. We will not consider any candidate who orders international killings of civilians.
We will not consider any candidate that ignores their own countries constitutional protections when it comes to foreign nationals living in its territories, etc.deleted by creator
I mean it always has been a bit hypocritical. It was Noble’s attempt to whitewash his memory as the creator of dynamite, which was almost immediately used as a weapon in the Franco Prussian war.
Should get the Nobill Prize since he never pays.
Or the Noballs prize since TACO.
