I figured Trump getting a Nobel would be big news around here.

Do we think he gets another after freeing Greenland and reducing drug prices by 300, 400, or even 500%?

I would love to see how he is going to reduce drug prices by 500%.

OP clearly wasn't a stem major.



He went to Trump University

If Mary Lou Retton gave Trump her Olympics Gold Medal, would that make Trump a female gymnast?

I'm looking forward to seeing what he gets an Oscar and Grammy for.

The problem with his "performances" is that people actually think he is not "acting".

Trump has a direct connection to diplomacy and the events in Venezuela for which the recipient was awarded her Nobel prize. He has zero connection to gymnastics. The analogy just doesn't work....get your shine box.

Can't Trump just identify as Nobel winner?

Are we not doing that anymore?

The noble prize was *******ized when they gave it to Obama for exactly what? Absolutely nothing productive.

The committee has reduced it to the stature of the Oscars. It ain't that big a deal.

It has always been a propaganda award so the media would stop calling Mr. Nobel the "merchant of death". You can read it's history.

Merchant of Death Peace Award.

He wasn't awarded one.

Someone physically giving him one doesn't count.

This is a really poor pot stirring thread.

Lots of TDS deranged posters went to lots of effort when they could have just typed "Reeeeee!" and been done.

President Trump is a winner and did say you would get sick of winning. President Trump is so right again the sickos got memes flowing.

If Trump is ever actually awarded the Nobel the same poor arse memes will flow again saying how Trump only got it so he would shut up about it.

Has someone shown where Trump demanded / threatened Marchado to give him the award? I hadn't seen much about that but given the reactions on this thread I assume he had to have done so.

Whether he "demanded" it or not, Trump is one of the few people on the planet to be such a 7 year old to be pleased to "receive" the award this way. Virtually anyone else would have found it awkward and unwanted at best and most would refuse it outright.

The award itself is a joke without Trump adding to it. Kissinger got it with a mountain of blood on his hands. Obama got it for being black while elected and at least had the decency to say it wasn't deserved.

He declined, she insisted.

I guess he could have cracked it over his knee and shoved her and the broken pieces out the side entrance to the West Wing and tell her to get lost and not bother him with silly trinkets.

Is that the better, more mature reaction? Or is politely accepting it, taking a photo and cracking some jokes to rile up the libs the more mature reaction?

No one believes you. There is no reliable report of Trump ever refusing the offer or pushing back in any way. This isn't a one off. Trump is a proven narcissist and manchild. He actively campaigned to receive the award. He said before receiving it that he would accept the prize if machado offered it.

And yes. Virtually everyone would refuse the award even when "pushed" (he wasn't) It's part of not being a child.

And it's not lost on me your sad attempt to put forth acceptance and smashing the award as the only alternatives. Almost anyone would give a polite refusal in the same situation.

Ironic, you getting so worked up over this then saying its Trump being the child. Ironic indeed.

I agree with you. I am a 3 time Trump voter, but this episode made him look silly. Whether a Nobel means anything is a different discussion but him being so thrilled to get someone else's medal made him look really bad. The jokes are well-deserved.

That said, even Obama looked like an idiot to get a NPP for nothing.

Well.... we know what we were getting with Trump. I am willing to look past all this and focus on his agenda of reform.

Trump deposes the leader of the country clearing the way for the opposition leader(s) to assume power democratically, said opposition is the current Nobel prize winner, that recipient said from the day she was announced the winner that Trump was more deserving (this before he arrested Maduro), several months later at meeting between two she presents her medal along with a certificate to Trump thanking him, and it's Trump or is immature and "silly" for graciously accepting?

Some of you "3 time Trump voters, but"s must wake up in the morning just hoping your day will be made by finding ANYTHING to hate on Trump about. Lawt.

Not a 3-time Trump voter, since I didn't vote for a liberal, ever, until voting for him in '24...but several things can be true at once:

1) Trump has done amazing things with immigration, and anti-drug/anti-terror (etc) actions around the world. His fiscal liberalism notwithstanding.

2) Her getting the award was warranted and justified, and she can do what she wants with the physical reward ( medal/certificate), up to and including throwing it away in a dumpster, giving it away, or melting it down for a sweet-ass "grill" to wear whenever she wants.

3) It was silly for Trump to "graciously accept" it. It's just as easy to "graciously decline". But, he is a known quantity of narcissism, and this all fits that quite logically.

4) It's a minor thing and doesn't take away from 1, since it is a known quantity.

Obama admitted he didn't think he deserved it. Trump has repeatedly said that he thinks he deserves it.
Trump could have easily said "no thank you, you deserve this award," and thought it's the gesture that counts. Instead, he comes off as the child you give an ice cream cone to just so they'll shut the **** up.

If he did, I missed it. If I was Obama, I would have refused to accept it and done it respectfully. There is no doubt that it was a DEI award.

I actually think Trump asked her to hand over the medal behind the scenes,and then they made it look like she was giving her award to him. This seems to be the most plausible thing to happen. I don't think anyone would give out a Nobel Prize to someone else. I think he basically got her to give it to him.

If she offered it to him, he should have politely refused.

After all this, he did is NOT a NPP winner. It won't show up in historical record. So he just looks bad.

Still... I am a Trump supporter for his agenda, not for him as a person.
