Norway Braces for Trump's Reaction to a Nobel Snub

Thursday, October 09, 2025

The Norwegian Nobel Committee said they reached their peace prize decision on Thursday, and "observers believe it is highly unlikely that Trump will be awarded the prize, leading to fears in the country over how he will react to being overlooked so publicly," the Guardian says.

The recipient of this year's Nobel Peace Prize will be announced by the Norwegian Nobel Committee on Friday October 10. US president Donald Trump has repeatedly touted his suitability to become a Nobel laureate, including claiming that he has "stopped seven wars."

No speedboat operating in the North Sea will be safe.

Anyone that sends his secret police and own military against his own citizens should never be considered for a peace prize.

Move over Aesop, here is a sour grapes story for you. A Republican has already slammed the Nobel Peace Prize as 'useless' knowing that Dummkopf Trumpf won't be getting it: www.mediaite.com

Note AIPAC whack-job Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) wants the Dotard-in-Chief to get the Nobel Peace Prize, like ICC-indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu.

Yes. For work he had done when he was a Senator.
