The deadline for proposing a Nobel prize candidate closed in January, this year. Trump was never even in the running. Which makes his constant whining about it even more pathetic.
I love how they were desperately racing all week to get some sort of concession in Gaza by the end of the week, before they'd make the Nobel announcement on Friday. Meanwhile, they'd already decided on Monday, so he was just blowing his time and energy in a totally wasted effort.
Now the world-class sore LOSER gets to throw a world-class tantrum for the next year as he makes another run at it. Maybe he'll focus his energy on solving conflicts around the world and actually get some accidental good out of his pathetically desperate clawing for validation in the form of ratings, polls, and awards.
I dont think its wasted effort i think its very intentional to make his supporters feel like he was snubbed by the international community.
That's Plan B. Plan A was always to win.
Propaganda is cool, but it doesn't compare to something shiny.
The deadline could be 10 years from now he's never getting it.
It's like 2 bullies against one weak kid. One bully stands by and watches the other nearly beat the kid to death. The one standing by thinks himself a humanitarian when he says "Hey, that's enough. You kill him and we'll both be in big trouble."
I know he’s full of shit, but does anyone know what “eight wars” he supposedly stopped?
The 8 wars Trump claims to have ended
Israel and Iran
Rwanda and Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC)
Armenia and Azerbaijan
Thailand and Cambodia
India and Pakistan
Egypt and Ethiopia
Serbia and Kosovo
Rwanda
Gabon
He didn’t earn those elections. His political and corporate backers paid for him to win. They paid to rig the elections and blanket campaign ads in front of all the rural poorly educated morons in America.
Cheeto Mussolini never earned anything in his life. He was given a fortune from his father, which he squandered and ruined every business, he laid his hands on.
The fact that people are arguing about democracy and voting and how this piece of shit got in the office really shows that they missed the greater issue in America. Corporate powers want everyone to fight against each other over social issues, cultural issues, and anything else that distracts people from understanding who is actually in charge.
But they did give it to one of his Venezuelan toadies as a consolation prize. I wonder if that was intended to piss him off even more.
The only prize he deserves is the Nobel Piece of Shit prize.
On top of all the utter ridiculousness of...well, EVERYTHING now, one would be hard-pressed to make this picture look like more of a deranged evil person than it already does. He looks, acts, and talks like all the worst parts of humanity, and he was put into the most powerful position on the planet. TWICE. I can't even.
Because the most powerful country in the world is evil. He's the best to fund a genocide in order to build on cheap real estate using slave labor.
the most powerful country in the world is evil.
I can't disagree. The thing is, with how complicit every other supposedly democratic government in the world is being about it, none of them are much better.
The deadline was like 11 days before or after he was sworn in.
There's a lesson to be learned here behind just idiot presidents and Nobel prizes. In almost every situation, Regime change if more effective is spear headed internally by an opposition leader rather that forced by an external power.
The fact that it went to a Venezeuelan woman is going to absolutely enrage him.
That particular Venezuelan woman was one of the leaders of the coup attempt against Chavez in the early 2000s and has been an opposition leader ever since. What makes this complicated is that she welcomed sanctions and coup attempts by the US, including during Trump's first term and she even pleaded to Netanyahu to liberate Venezuela with military force (wasn't able to find a better source since search results are very award focused right now).
She has close ties to Israel's Likud party, and wants to open the Venezuelan embassy in Jerusalem after Chavez ended diplomatic relations after their assault on Gaza in 2009 and likened Venezuela's struggle to the one of Israel.
From the will of Alfred Nobel outlining who is to receive the prize:
and one part to the person who has done the most or best to advance fellowship among nations, the abolition or reduction of standing armies, and the establishment and promotion of peace congresses.
I'm wondering how the committee is squaring this requirement with her calling for "the use of power" by external forces.

Loses? He was never eligible to win it in the first place. You can nominate a goldfish to win a mountaineering award all you like, but that doesn't mean it going to happen.
