    As they tried to explain to him last time, the Norwegian government has nothing to do with the Nobels. The Nobel Prizes are a private institution started by Alfred Nobel and they have their own people deciding who gets it.

      the committee is selected by parliament so it’s not like they have nothing to do with it.

        Besides, surely the Norwegian president can just sign an executive order forcing them to- what? What do you mean, other places don’t normally run like that?

          oh you just reminded me of the a$ap rocky assault case from 2019 during trump I, wherein he personally called up the then-minister for state of sweden and threatened sanctions if the guy wasn’t released while at the same time offering to post bail. the minister had to explain to him that not only does sweden, like most democracies, not have a bail system, it is explicitly illegal for statesmen to attempt to influence the courts.

            Somehow, the mental image of his impotent rage is adorable. Also as concerning and embarrassing as we’re used to from him.

    Get over yourself, Trump. Nothing you do has been-nor will ever be, peaceful. Your coffin will probably be gaudy, covered in gold, and you’ll ask your family to make such a big, spectacular deal out of it.

      The better question is whether they will. I guarantee if it’s left up to Melania it’ll be an unmarked private grave on Mar a Lago

      Very probable, although his golden coffin will be dug up soon, because by then US is in a financial ruin and Trumps carcase will be dumped on the grass face down with a flower between his ass cheeks.

      There he will rot till county workers haul him in to an incinerator because he starts to smell and his awful offspring couldn’t give a shit.

    As he extends the war in Ukraine by giving Russia more money.

    As he extends the war in Iran so the Oil Olgiarchs rake in more money.

    As he extends blowing up civilians in international waters to engage in more Imperialism.

    As he extends his calls that US citizens are the enemy to divide and fracture society in an attempt to start a civil war.

    The prince of peace. /s

      Extending the war in Iran also gives Russia more money, since it’s one of Russia’s only substantial sources of export earnings.

      As he extends his calls that US citizens are the enemy to divide and fracture society in an attempt to start a civil war.

      Which also benefits Russia.

      There seems to be a pattern here.

    Someone wrote that for him because there is no way that fat fuck knows what indelible means. Maybe the "stupor intelligence " did it.

      Do not slander Bullwinkle J Moose in this manner. Remember it was these two, Boris and Natasha, who did the bidding of Fearless leader. Boris also has tiny hands and wears lifts, hmmmm

    Narcissistic injury from that one time Obama got a prize they won’t give him.

    Also: how, the fuck, does an over-bronzed gelatinous sack of fucking whale meat just start using the word “indelible” all of sudden? Should be down to the single digits on whatever neurons haven’t been demented into the grey matter equivalent of a side of KFC gravy… .

    No, awarding him any kind of prize would stain the committee, and the prize. It would render the prize meaningless going forward.
