Maybe he should shoot for something more attainable for someone of his capability, like a Darwin award

Isn't he out of contention since he has already reproduced?
I'm willing to give him a participation trophy
He could try running the Russians out of Ukraine, stop Israel genociding and restarting USAID in Sudan, saving millions of lifes. There are many projects he could take on. But he is not even trying. It's difficult, i know. But if you want a medal; you need to at least participate.
TIL that, to Trump, Henry Kissinger was a liberal.
Remember.
Trump is obsessed with Nobel prizes, because Obama got one.. and Trump is a small, tiny, jealous, insecure little man with an YUGE inferiority complex.
Obama made a joke at Trumps expense once and now Trump will do anything to one up him and erase Obama's accomplishments as president
No matter how much spray tan he uses, he could never take away Obama's achievement of being the FIRST president of color.
The only thing he's accomplishing is that people fondly remember Obama and want him back.
Unfortunately, they don't hand them out for being the biggest dipshit around. He would have won way more than five by now if that was the case.
Cry more, dickhead.
If the United States is not attacking Iran by next year he may be right….
... bad news there.
D’oH!
He should win the opposite of a Nobel Prize. Like how the razzies (which he has won a few of) are the opposite of oscars.
Let's call them prison sentences and I agree.
Ig Nobel Prize https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ig_Nobel_Prize
You still have to put in some real work to win one of those. They don't just hand them out for whining in the media.
He should get a Darwin award.
Sadly, he spawned. 🤮
They have the Ignoble Awards but I don’t think he qualifies for that either.
Shut up, Donald.
Delusional.
....in the same news cycle that he is bombing Iran he's bitching like a little bitch about not having won the Nobel Peace Prize?
I would like a Nobel Prize awarded to AOC...for sending the backers of Project 2025 to Nuremberg, a second one for a Great New Deal, a third for a Renewed Bill of Rights, a 4th for funding a Neo-NHS that implements universal healthcare, and a fifth Nobel for killing capitalism as we know it. Maybe a sixth, for destroying the Klan and dismantling existing American Police with a wholely new institution without any members from their ICE predecessors.
This petty whiner.
God it fucking burns him so bad that Obama got one and he didn't.
Obama didn't even deserve a peace prize, the guy did more drone strikes than Bush, but just for the fact that it upsets Trump so much I say they should give him another one.
Ha yeah for his peace efforts in the Middle East (or Near East for us Europeans) just to fuck up Trump more.
God he's so cringe "they only give them to liberals 😭" no they are
granted in accordance with the principle of "for the greatest benefit to humankind"
at which conservatives fail because they ultimately only benefit themselves.
Also I agree Obama didn't deserve them but at least he also gives at this fact himself and didn't wear it when he ordered drone strikes on wedding ceremonies while you can bet Trump would wear it on the toilet even
but just for the fact that it upsets Trump so much I say they should give him another one.
Five more, so Obama has one more than Trump thinks he's earned.
Of course Obama did more drone strikes than Bush - drones were barely a thing during the Bush years. The technology only became practical, cost effective, and mass produced during Obama's term.
Obama, being Blah, drives the likes of Taco crazy just by his very existence. Well, crazy-ier.
Makes me wonder though if Bush wouldn't've used more drones if they were cheaper and readily available earlier in his presidency. At the time, they were still incredibly expensive and unreliable.
No one in government cares how many collateral deaths there are when drones are used, as long as it reduces the number of Americans returning home in boxes. Keeping the voters happy is always the priority.

Republicans are so terrible that Obama was given a Nobel peace prize early into his first term just for not being a republican

They don’t have Nobel Prizes for shitting your pants.
And even if they did, they still wouldn't give it to him simply on principle.
Sorry Trump, even the shit-your-pants prize is for liberals only
My point exactly. The fact that Obama got it in the first place while killing thousands. "indirectly" but it's insane.
He doesn't understand how anything works. You can question his intelligence, and there's the dementia, but most of all, it's his ignorance that stands out.
Henry Kissinger: famous liberal
The best thing I can say about Kissinger is that he's dead.
The worst thing about being an atheist is knowing that he isn't rotting in Hell.
HOW MANY WARS DO I HAVE TO START TO GET A DAMN PEACE PRIZE.
This is an opportunity. Somebody needs to tell him that pulling the leash on Israel would guarantee the prize. We could have a parade at the awards ceremony. Red carpet, real celebrities, and everything.
It would still only be the second most embarrassing Peace Prize given to a sitting president.

He's such an ideal Bond villain. Unfortunately there was never a Bond film featuring the villain being a president because no one could imagine something so outlandishly heinous. Speaks to the quality of this timeline.

I've heard that the Nobel people were thinking about giving Trump one in two weeks ... but they are going to wait until the last second to decide.
I hope he lives just long enough for them to give a Nobel prize to whoever fixes the humanitarian nightmares he's creating. He deserves to see all his bullshit unravel in front of him.
