i wish he was directly and unambiguously mocked a lot more
“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.
Peace prize for Trump? The guy who started a war? With his own citizens?
He’s demented.
To ravage, to slaughter, to usurp under false titles, they call empire; and where they make a desert, they call it peace.
As it should be. It’s pathetic. Which is something Trump nows all about. Like diddling little kids.
Also, the fact an entire country is now fearing the turds petty revenge for not winning justifies him not winning.
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.
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.
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.
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.
If he did his campaign promises of ending the wars in Ukraine and Gaza with his first week, he might’ve had a shot.
But no, he decides to divide and antagonize.
Why not offer a participation trophy called the ‚Noble Piece Prize‘? At his reading level he’ll not notice any difference and no one is going to tell him.
I like the idea but I must say it’s going to be hard to hold our noses and proclaim anything he does to be “noble” even for the sake of the joke.
How about the Mobile Pizza Prize, a baby mobile with golden pizza slices on it?
They have ignobel prizes.
Even if this pause on Israeli imperialism lasts, he’s simultaneously extrajudicially bombing foreign civilians, on purpose, in international waters. And bragging about it.
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.
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.
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.
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.
It would be very spicy to see Zelensky or Thunberg get it this year.
Thunberg yeah sure, i can see it; Zelensky… not so much.
Neither this year’s winner but i stopped caring once they gave it to an american president.thunberg already has conservatives panties in a bunch, so she should get it first. the more they propagandize against her, the more infamous she becomes.
He’s actually done a phenomenal job of redefining the limits of USA politics. I mean, he’s completely destroying our country, and at a rate that even I have to acknowledge is kind of impressive, despite being horrifying.
Sadly, I don’t think they give out the Nobel for that. But maybe we can get him one of those trophies little kids get for playing sports.
Best case scenario for this worse case reality.
Not actually trying to sum it all up in a quick phrase. This here is just a late night kinda one of those “Yo, that sounds right” kind of thingy things. If you wanna bust my ball sac, let’s talk sports. I hope we are all on the same side politically speaking. If not politically on the same page then your mother is a Munt.
Think he’d notice if he got a special Ig Nobel prize?
The thing is, even the IgNobel prizes are for actual contribution. Trump doesn’t even deserve THAT.
Give him one in physics and make it the sort of thing only an absolute moron would think is praise, like for his unique demonstration of angular posture; or in normal speak because he leans like a Pisan tower at a Houston rap concert
Give him a theoretical prize in physics
If you give a mouse a cookie, he’ll ask for a dictatorship next
For best genes, because of nuclear. From his uncle.
No, it doesn’t need to make grammatical sense, just give it to him.
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.
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.
Everyone has free speech … as long as they say what he wants to hear
