President Donald Trump asserted on Monday that the Nobel Peace Prize process is unfair because he should get one for a lot of things.
While appearing at the UN, Trump speculated on why he had not been awarded a Nobel Prize.
I would get a Nobel prize for a lot of things, if they give it out fairly, which they dont, Trump said. They gave one to Obama immediately upon his assent to the presidency and he had no idea why he got it.
You know what? the president added. That was the only thing I agreed with him on.

Nobel prize for "a lot of things". Does this dumb prick cube realize there are nobel prizes in just a few disciplines?
So WHICH of the below would he qualify:
Medicine
Physics
Chemistry
Peace
Literature
Economics
So basically SIX. But he would get "a lot" of these. This guy is such an idiot.
Generic Other
(28,979 posts)Medicine: He needs meds.
Physics: He defies it with his leaning tower of Trump stance and impossible hair.
Chemistry: Adderall sniffing.
Peace: He appreciates a "good piece of underage ---"
Literature: Never read a book in his adult life other than excerpts from Mein Kampf.
Economics: How many bankruptcies? 4?
Yes, these are all the reasons he deserves multiple Nobel awards. How unfair to deny him!!

He might be able to tell you it's about John-Boy on "The Waltons".*
*For those not steeped in 70's trivia, actor Richard Thomas, maybe most widely known for his role in the 1971-1978 TV series about a Depression-era family, starred in a 1979 TV movie of the novel. which puts it at about the right timeframe for a factoid to stick in Trumps brain, never, ever to be dislodged.

(42,377 posts)Physics: For demonstrating, through the response his actions elicit, the principle that every action has an opposite reaction
Chemistry: For demonstrating that chemical treatments of hair follicles can alter the color of one's hair.
Medicine: For demonstrating that one can survive on a diet of fast food.
Literature: For authoring a collection of highly fictional, and often farcical, tweets.
Economic Sciences: For helping educate the public about tariffs by lying about how they work
Peace: For not managing to blow up the world...yet...despite his bluster.

(42,377 posts)There have been at least six instances where Noble Prize winners declined to accept the honor. Most did so out of fear of government reprisal or under government pressure:
Jean Paul Satre (Literature -1964): declined voluntarily
Le Duc Tho (Peace - 1973): declined voluntarily
Boris Pasternak (Literature - 1958): declined under government pressure/fear of reprisal
Gerhard Domagk (Medicine- 1939): declined under pressure of Nazi government
Richard Kuhn (Chemistry - 1938): declined under pressure of Nazi government
Adolf Butenadt (Chemistry 1939): declined under pressure of Nazi government

Along with "beautiful", "tremendous", "biggest", "greatest"

Moostache
(9,895 posts)First, I and everyone else knows EXACTLY what he means by "giving them out fairly"...he remains totally bent out of shape that President Obama was awarded a Peace Prize and Trump won't get one unless he makes a fake version and photoshops himself onto the awards dinner stage.
Second, that knowledge is burning Trump's ample ass EVERY SECOND he is around world leaders...its like popcorn seed stuck in his dentures and he can't EVER dislodge it. Which means he is suffering EVERY DAY...there is justice in the unvierse, truly!
Finally, he continues to make an ass of himself as a whiny little bitch CONSTANTLY over this complete non-issue...but it sure does make me smile to know that that shitheel usurper is having another sad because the black man who preceded him in office was simply better. Better as a man. Better as a president. Better as a leader. Better as a human being.
And NOTHING can fill Trumpy Bear's Obama shaped hole...NOTHING!
Sit on it and fucking spin Donnie 2 Scoops!!!

To lend some accuracy: I would get a Nobel prize for a lot of things, if they give it out fairly frequently, and to any grifter who asked for it."
Trump can apply for prizes in the following categories:
Freakonomics
Fiterature
Malpractice
Piss
Physicals
Chemagoguery

Or the Peace Prize for his dedication to building border walls?

(11,694 posts)That is all Trump has done. His policies have not helped the economy or people of the US. He hasn't brokered any peace agreements. He hasn't DONE anything, except take credit for work that had already been done by other presidents and countries, that or he's come in and messed everything up so that he could "fix it", which has failed spectacularly.
