Trump has boasted about ending eight wars, styling himself as "the president of peace" and therefore deserving of the Nobel honour but those claims have been exaggerated.

US President Donald Trump told Norway's prime minister he no longer needed to think "purely of peace" after failing to win the Nobel Peace Prize, in a message published on Monday. "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," Trump said in a message to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre.

The authenticity of the message was confirmed to the AFP news agency by a source close to the matter and by Støre to Norwegian newspaper VG. It is unclear why Trump decided to send a message to Støre as the peace prize is decided by the Norwegian Nobel Committee and not the government.

In a written comment, Støre underlined that the Nobel Peace Prize was not awarded by the Norwegian government. "I have clearly explained, including to president Trump what is well known, the prize is awarded by an independent Nobel Committee," Store said.

8. He's started or threatened more wars than he ever imagined stopping

Including wars on American cities.

10. "I have clearly explained, including to president Trump . . . "

Well, that's the problem. Trump is incapable of understanding anything that does not put a crown on his head, a trophy in his showcase, or a $$$ in his pocket.

11. This is a new level of obnoxious.

I'd be embarrassed but the world has to know it's not my fault our president expresses himself on a 5th grade level.

12. He is a bucket of nuts.

13. Here's an idea. Let's scour the thrift shops for old trophies they're trying to peddle and send him a donation.

Will he STFU if he gets a Kiwanis Club "Man of the Year" Award from 1974?
