It's killing him (hopefully literally) that Obama has one and he doesn't.

[–] stoly@lemmy.world 38 points 1 month ago

It may be the one thing he's been denied in his life. I am enjoying watching this happen.

"Is it real gold or just one of those chocolate coins with gold colored foil around it?"

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 43 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This is clearly his only motivation in trying to get the Ukraine war ended. Pathetic behavior

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 64 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And his version of ending it is making Ukraine surrender

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He could nuke the world to achieve world peace, but I suppose there wouldn’t be anyone left to give him the medal he’s so clearly obsessed with

[–] mgnome@piefed.social 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Dunno, different ghouls, like Jeffrey Bezos for example, seem to be preparing their doomsday bunkers, so he could get his medal proudly awarded to him in picturesque nuclear wasteland after it'll be safe to emerge from underground.

Not within his lifetime, no matter how much healthcare he thinks money can buy. Maybe you mean his great-great-great-great-*-great-grandchildren can get the medal on his behalf, although they'll be pretty horribly inbred by that point.

Hear me out. He gets the prize if he resigns today

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Depending on who steps in, it could be a significant achievement for world peace.

[–] MrPommeroy@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What about people who are intolerant of other people's culture?

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I'll eat them but only if they're prime minister

Well, JD Vance would step in, so it definitely wouldn't advance word peace.

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 26 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Just adding context:

The Norwegian outlet Dagens Næringsliv, citing unnamed sources, reported: “Out of the blue, while finance minister Jens Stoltenberg was walking down the street in Oslo, Donald Trump called … He wanted the Nobel prize – and to discuss tariffs.”

The outlet added that it was not the first time that Trump had raised the question of a Nobel peace prize nomination to Stoltenberg.

My opinion? If they even consider him my faith in humanity is finally destroyed.

[–] SkyeStarfall@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

You bet your ass I will be on the streets protesting if that happens. Would be one of the most disgusting things they could do

But hey, maybe if Trump comes to Norway I'll manage to hit him with a rotten tomato (and then his bodyguards killing me, but that is a risk I'm willing to take)

They've considered a number of people as bad as trump for the prize already. I believe some have even won it

[–] Nico_198X@europe.pub 20 points 1 month ago (2 children)

he can have it when he helps restores the territorial intergrity of Ukraine, removing all Russian presence from Ukraine, and helping hold Kremlin war criminals to justice.

[–] Darleys_Brew@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What about kicking Israel out of Palestine?

[–] Nico_198X@europe.pub 9 points 1 month ago

[–] peaceful_world_view@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Fuck NO, never ever, NO NO NO.

Norway is getting 1000% tariffs until Trump gets his prize.

Incoming rambling, incoherent speech from Trump about how the Norwegian minister of finance called him to ask him if he wanted the peace prize and Trump tried to turn it down.

Sir this is a Wendy's

Nobel peace prize has been a joke for a very long time now like damn near all the lights camera flash red carpet awards of the past century

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, unfortunately there's way more chance of this farce than of him being Pope.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

can we make him the archdingus of maralago? maybe it we get him a really big silly hat he'll shut up for a while

[–] wetbeardhairs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I hope they invent a new Nobel prize in stupidity and surprise him with it.

[–] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The ~~Montgomery Burns~~ Donald Trump award for excellence in the field of excellence.

[–] a_wild_mimic_appears@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Sorry, there is no nobel prize for the most stupid individual ever elected president. But maybe the Guiness Book of Records might be interested

[–] Cosmonauticus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Obama and Kissenger got one so as far as I'm concerned anyone can get one

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 1 month ago

“You mean there’s no prize for most harm? What are you saying!”

[–] MyOpinion@lemmy.today 7 points 1 month ago

Trump deserves the giant piece of human shit award only.
