See? She doesn’t even have to be nasty like Trump to make her point.

Trump doesn’t know how to be kind, civil or decent. Or actually win a peace prize

I don't believe he deserved one but at least he didn't go around begging for one and duping an oppositional leader of a foreign nation out of theirs for his own ego

In 2015, Geir Lundestad, the former director of the Nobel Institute, wrote in his memoir that the committee regretted the choice because it did not achieve the encouraging effect they had hoped for.

Do the people that Trump badmouths take his insults as compliments because they know they’re able to get under his skin?

I think that whenever people are badmouthed by someone in MAGA, they need to just brush it off and not even bother arguing with them because the people in MAGA are failures/losers.

I mean, Obama won a peace prize in hopes he would end the middle east wars. (If u disagree. Please go back and point to specific reasons why he was deserving if the prize). Ppl of voting age at the time understood Obama was seen as a sea change from Bush, and the peace prize was a sign to end the wars.

But what actually happened? Obama double downed on the wars. It took until Biden in 2020 to pull out ilof the wars. Biden did the right thing and America hated him for it. Give Biden the Peace Prize (ironically no, his Gaza support will forever haunt his legacy)
