Why Trump Can’t Stand His Nobel Prize Humiliation

2 days ago by CharlesDarwin to c/politics

The Nobel winner’s public jab hit on something the president famously hates: being laughed at.
CharlesDarwin 93 points 2 days ago

Also:

Hours after Pillay’s victory was announced Friday, the Trump administration slapped sanctions on the International Criminal Court, where she previously served as a judge.

There are kindergarten kids with more maturity and emotional stability than this asshole.

Well, given the owners of the UFC, they very well might give him some made-up trinket like FIFA did.

Also....god, he's so fucking stupid. What kind of adult would accept a made-up award like FIFA's? The mind just reels. Any normal adult would be like...."WTF even is this?" And nope out. But of course FIFA knows he's a total narcissist jackass and his brain just sees "shiny object being given to ME! This is just the natural order of the universe!"

Same with taking someone else's prize. Any prize. But something like the Nobel Peace Prize - WTF. I have to laugh that people like donnie probably mock things like "participation trophies" but taking someone else's trophy is far worse. Way, way worse.

Both the FIFA thing and taking someone's else's prize are not things he even participated in, LOL.

Remember that time he included a state erroneously in a warning about a hurricane and got corrected? No one would have remembered or cared, except he just had to double down and sharpie in a false storm track to try to prove himself right.

What I love the most about this, is that he has totally set himself up for a major disappointment every year. For the rest of his life, the announcement of the Nobel Peace Prize will be an Anti-Birthday for him. An annual day to remind him what a loser he is, and that everybody hates him.

And he did it to himself, LMFAO!

It's so wild that his brain is so broken that he thinks he's even in the running for it.

Thank goodness the people responsible for awarding it are out of reach of this asshole and his accomplices. It's not like he can do some Kennedy Center shit where he puts all his own people on it, and then, oh, quelle surprise, his name is on the building!

“oh dear, the prices are worse because the guy I elected did everything he said he was going to do and started a war for funsies”

Most voters are simple creatures with short term memories who don’t think beyond rolling the dice for a better outcome on their wallet. Then when they are “betrayed”, they repeat the process.

excerpt :

While accepting the prize, Pillay, 85, dedicated the honor to “all the survivors of international crimes as well as to practitioners and defenders of international justice.”
She also mocked the U.S. president’s desire for the honor: “If you clap a little bit more, I may share this prize with Trump.”

Just a reminder that Obama won a Peace Prize for essentially being black and it was a huge embarrassment at the time. Henry Kissinger won the Peace Prize for fuck sake. Giving one of them to Trump would do nothing to harm the prestige or honor from that dubious award.
