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."

Trump's reaction to not getting the Nobel?

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.

You don't get to claim a Nobel Peace Prize after you have armed one side of a dispute and that side has used those arms to commit genocide!!! Holding ALL of the people of Gaza responsible for the actions of a few is akin to some of the old Westerns and WWII movies that I have seen where the villains round up the whole town and shoots some number of towns people if they don't give up their protectors.

Whoever hands out this useless award is only showing who it wants to be in charge, just like our "Women of the year" award handers.

This will only cheapen the award and it's meaning. Trump came in office making peace all over the world. There is no one else who deserves it more. The world knows this.

But as usual, progressives will give the award to those pushing their agenda. Making the award useless.

Give it to the person actually making peace and not just because they are liberal.

Donald Trump didn't get the Nobel, first and foremost, because he is a self-entitled pig.

The world knows this.

Sorry, Boaz, the Nobel Peace Prize was most definitely not viewed as a "useless award" until it became clear your overseer Trump was not going to get it. Before that, it was pure gold, pursued with comic desperation by Trump. It's like the Yankees saying, "We didn't want that useless World Series anyway." Pathetic, poor lewzers. LOL.

Donald has asserted the right to kill anyone he thinks deserves being killed.

All it takes is the label "drug trafficker" or "antifa".

That's All-It-Takes.

-You don't know that.

LOL

As is that's a standard that matters around here.

Train loads of stuff you don't know but that doesn't stop you from spewing it daily here.

We allow that. We don't require you to know it before you type it.

Hell, everyone here pretends to not see the stuff you don't know but you post it anyway.

It's okay ... ..it's a big grouo you're a part of.

But let's not be pretend to be put off by what Boaz posted.

Here is the standard of "truth" you hold yourself accountable for

1. Could it be true or rather can it be proven to not be true?
2. Do you want it to be true?

Just stick with that. But that makes Boaz's "truth" 100% the same as what you post.
