In a letter sent to Norwegian prime minister Jonas Gahr Støre today, Donald Trump linked his repeated threats to illegally seize Greenland to the fact that he wasn’t awarded the Nobel peace prize. Seriously.
The US president said that because he didn’t win the prize, he’s no longer obligated to think “purely of peace.”
“Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace,” said Trump, adding that he could now “Think about what is good and proper” for the USA. As if.
So Donald Trump is now free to take over Greenland because he’s pissed off with Norway.
For fuck’s sake.
Has anyone explained to him that Norway isn’t Denmark, or that the Nobel is awarded by an independent committee?
Useful CIA idiot Maria Machado’s gifting of her prize to Trump was possibly the most embarrassing thing I’ve seen since the election, and that is saying A LOT. Imagine humiliating yourself in that way, and for what? Standing there next to Machado: that’s gotta be the biggest shit-eating smile I’ve ever seen!
The man has no shame.
What makes it even more pathetic is that she could only hand over the trappings of the award, not the Prize itself, which is non-transferable. That didn’t appear to make one damn bit of difference to Trump.
It’s like if someone were able to buy the World Cup on eBay – and then they go around claiming to be the world’s best footballer.
Sad.
