  1. Petulant two-year old crying when he doesn’t get what he wants. We call it the terrible twos.

  2. From the article:

    The Norwegian Nobel Institute has responded to Donald Trump’s extended tantrum about not receiving a Nobel Peace Prize.

    Director Kristian Berg Harpviken has increased transparency around the selection process to defend against accusations of bias leveled at it by Trump and his supporters.

    “The strategy for clearing the air is simply to talk about it,” Kristian Berg Harpviken said. While declining to mention Trump by name, referring to him only as “the candidate in question,” he explained the strategy, aimed at ensuring the masses understand the institute’s work.

    “We see it as important that as many people as possible understand how it is that we work and what the principles are,” Harpviken told the Atlantic. “Whether those lobbying for the prize are receptive to that or not is really beyond our control.”

    Harpviken added that “we haven’t had the embassy or officials knocking on our doors” when it comes to attempts to sway the committee. “Nothing like that.” He added that they will not be influenced either way. “A candidate who is aggressively campaigning for him or herself will neither be penalized nor privileged. We are very conscious about that.”

  3. I am sure if we ever see the full list Trump was patron number 1. 

    Everything he did prior to being president revolves around Epstein. Even taking over the Miss America contest as a recruitment tool

    “Nobel Peace Prize Institute”

    Just create a Nobel Pedo Prize, and give him it. Tell him pedo is Norwegian for peace.
    Everyone’s happy.

  5. The Nobel prize got a mention in the Epstein files–like it could be bargained for. That said, Peace is its own thing.

  6. They should give them their top 10 list, showing him that he isn’t even on it. ‘not only did you not win, you weren’t even our second or third pick.’

  7. The fact that the committee has to do all these “transparency” tests for a pedo wanna be mob boss 79 y/o loser that’s never going to win that medal, ever, is so pathetic and sad

    The soviet government did NOT want Pasternak to win the literature award in 1958. It wouldn’t surprise me if they made that fact known. They used internal pressure on him to force the issue. We’re told now the CIA had a hand in the publication in the west. Still great writing.

    The same with Solzhenitsyn in 1970. Not wanted by the government.

  9.  “A candidate who is aggressively campaigning for him or herself will neither be penalized nor privileged. We are very conscious about that.”

    One might think that aggressively campaigning for a peace prize would be fairly clearcut disqualification criteria.

  10. At this point, even if Trump got it through legit achievements there’ll be suspicions the Institute caved due to this whining. 

  11. Start the countdown to the inaugural USA Trump Peace Prize with its first recipient and winner of $50 million being…

    Envelope please…

    President Donald J Trump

    I would image that since TFG accepted Ms Machado’s gifted Nobel, against the Nobel rules, it will be the coldest day on record in Norway before they ever consider him eligible.

  13. This is your daily reminder that this impossibly stupid crybaby fucknut warned that since he wasn’t going to win the peace prize he wouldn’t be a peaceful president.

  14. This same “defiant” Institution have the prize to an American shill in Venezuela who promptly handed it to Donny Twoscoops.

    I hope they give it to Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie, just to rub his nose in it.

    (But it will probably go to someone who I’ve never heard of who is much more deserving)

  16. Do you think…somehow, someone, has implanted the idea that he’ll get positive karma or the like, if he gets one? I mean for the ‘heaven’ stuff that he was spewing a while ago. He’s definitely profoundly envious of Obama, but idk if that’s all there is to it.

  17. I believe it to be disqualifying to ask for it and complain about not getting it. Also, the fascism doesn’t really help either.

    I can’t wait to see how pissed he is when I (and my fellow Minneapolitans) win next year.

    They should get a paper plate, some macaroni, and some gold glitter glue and make a *Noble Pease Prize for Donald*.

  20. He can’t even foster peace in his own country let alone others, dude is arguably the least deserving person on earth for a Nobel peace prize.
