Trump: 'Everyone thinks' I deserve Nobel Peace Prize

Source: The Hill

Josh Delk 3 hrs ago

President Trump said Thursday that "everyone thinks" he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize, after weeks of suggestions that he should be honored for his diplomatic efforts on the Korean Peninsula.

"Everyone thinks so, but I would never say it," Trump said when asked by a reporter in the White House if he thinks he should win the prestigious award.

Ahead of an historic face-to-face meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, Trump said he only hopes for the U.S. to broker a deal for the country to denuclearize and desist its missile threats.

"I want to get it finished. The prize I want is victory for the world, not even here. I want victory for the world because that's what we're talking about. So that's the only prize I want," Trump said.

He sounds like he's in the Miss Universe Pageant.
He even lies when he pretends to do something good.
He wants that award soooooo badly. And when he doesn't get it, oh boy, he'll find more Obama work to undo so we can all pay.

I don't remember the title, but one of the characters was this slightly insane general they needed to lock up. How they caught him was by telling him he was going to be awarded the "Nobel War Prize," and he was stupid enough to believe it.

Maybe Trump wants one of those.

I don't think threatening countries with nuclear annihilation warrants a Nobel Peace Prize.

"Everyone" is a damn lie.

Nobel peace prize, he thinks this will make him a noble. He's thinking a Duke at least, his youngest son will be Baron Barron. Don Jr and Eric will still be Beavis and Butthead.

That tiny sole voice of reason is the only thing that keeps cheetolini from sticking a paper clip into an electrical socket with his teeth.

the Nobel Peace Prize, saying such a thing under any circumstances? I can't. Henry Kissinger, maybe: "Effreebody zhinks I teserve tis Prize!" No offense intended, truly, to people who have accents, but ol' Henry's is atrocious.

Proclaim "everyone" thinks or says something the liar wishes "everyone" to think or say. The message for others is that they, too, should think /say the same thing. I'm familiar with the gambit -- learned it from my bat-shit crazy mother who was a notorious liar. She called it "inocculating" the listener. Currently we would call it planting a meme.

I think she would have loved trump!

NOBODY on this planet thinks you deserve it. Stop telling us that everyone is saying so, because no one is saying so. NO ONE. ANYWHERE. You have not done one thing that elevates you to consideration, but you have done a lot of things that will get you indicted, prosecuted, and convicted. You will go down in history as the most fetid, maggot-filled, pus-oozing, stench-ridden piece of human excrement on earth.
