Can he really be this thick especially after this was explained to him last year?

US President Donald Trump has once again made complaints that he did not receive the Nobel Peace Prize, calling this year's decision "disgraceful and embarrassing".

The prize was awarded to former International Criminal Court judge Navi Pillay on Friday. Hours after the announcement, Donald Trump told a rally he had "never heard" of the "mystery person".

"This is an indelible stain on the country of Norway" he said, adding "we will not forget".

Trump has been outspoken about his desire to win the prize, and made similar criticisms in 2025 when it was awarded to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado.

Last year, Norway's Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre explained to Trump it was an independent committee based in Norway, not the Norwegian government, which decides who will receive the prize.

Speaking to his supporters at a rally in Syracuse, New York, the US president repeated claims that he had settled eight wars and was "about to settle or win two more", without providing evidence.

"The Nobel Peace Prize has been forever discredited by a handful of radical ideologues who are anti-democracy and really enemies of civilisation," he said.

Look, normally his trolling is funny. After the past 8 months, it’s a little tiresome.

The man deserves it more than that do nothing Obama.

I honestly do not know why Trump wants it though. They cheapened it and made it worthless when they chose Obama as the recipient.

The Nobel Prize smelled their own farts into irrelevancy. Amazing how they ruined the award.

Look, he really wants it. Needs it, even. And when you need something, that’s a responsibility.

How do you get to where you are in life? Seriously? Did life beat you down so much that you decided you wanted everyone else to suffer too? Is it so bad that you hate Freedom and hate Trump so much, that you would rather have a communist regime in the US? I'm honestly trying to understand how mentally unstable one has to be to be eagerly wanting Socialism/Communism.

When did criticizing a politician become taboo for you? It's you that should be doing soul searching.

Completely agree.
Just don't understand why Trump is so fixated on winning it that he actually campaigns for the award.

So it’s based in Norway and somehow it doesn’t add to Norway’s stature ? Would Norway not be embarrassed if a huge scandal within their country?

I'll tell you who the frick cares....it's Trump. He's been complaining about this
for two years. it's not just trying to own the Libs or just joking. He actually thinks that he deserves this. How can a grown man complain for two years about not winning an award. Fatigue...
