    I hope they write "Nobel Prize" in black marker on a submarine sandwich and throw it at him.

    If Amber Alert were to arrest Putin when they meet tomorrow and deliver him to The Hague that might get him that peace prize he wants so bad. :bergman:

    I want everyone to think about how Nobel made his money that enabled him to fund his prize. I also want people to think about prize medals/awards that are made from something with historical importance. Like, you know, this astronomical prize award/medal is made with part of a meteorite, or other substance from a celestial body. Or from a hunk taken from a historical telescope.

    I deserve the Peace Prize. Nobody is more peaceful than me. The Ignobel Committee is very mean to me and unfairly refuses to give me the big beautiful peace prize I deserve. You have one week. After that, if the Ignobel Committee hasn't awarded me the prize I will declare war on one country per day until I get it, starting with Nasty Norway, then Sucky Sweden, then Fucked-up Finland...

    Also it must be renamed the Trump Peace and Big Penis Prize because I'm the best at peace and I have a big penis. It's yuge, not tiny like South Park says. People have been saying some very mean things about my penis and it's all fake news.

    Meanwhile, Hilary has apparently said she would nominate Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize if he actually brokers a deal to bring about peace between Russia and Ukraine without Ukraine having to give up its territory,

    I have to compliment her on her trolling of him. She might as well offer me an Olympic medal if I manage to beat Usain Bolt in a foot race, along with a Oscar for a selfie I took if I look like Denzel Washington in it.

    Really? Like a lot of people use Skol. IKEA is from Sweden and Nokia comes from Finland. Exactly how much revenue was he hoping to pocket?

    The Peace Prize has been a joke since they gave it to Kissinger. The fact that your boy is so butthurt about not getting one doesn’t say anything good about him.

    Yes, many people thought it was premature, backed up by things like his wife scale deployment of drones.

    Since we agree that wasn't a good awarding I guess we can also agree that Trump is wrong on this?

    Of course Trump is wrong on this. @Tuckerfan is right, the Nobel Prize is a joke.

    So I guess Trump is....I dont know, how do I put this... abusing his power perhaps, in order to secure a joke award in order to appease his vanity? Is that what you're saying?

    Do you believe that Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution of the United States of America invests the ability to levy tariffs in the Congress?

    If not how do you read Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution of the United States of America?

    So you're full of shit when you say the Nobel Prize is a joke, then.
    Because if its not a joke, Trump wouldn't be pressuring Norway to give him one.

    No, but you are the guy who endorsed him to make decisions on your behalf on the direction of a 29 trillion dollar economy and the worlds most powerful military.

    That you slob his knob when he's doing some fascist shit you love, but when you can't defend him you fall back to just saying something like it's not your job to defend him. Probably because you know that if you started getting tallied for things you actually do agree and disagree with him on it would highlight the real reasons you support him.

    We already know that it makes him feel all warm and fuzzy inside when "liberals" complain about Trump. It's not about facts or policies, it's just about a need to make himself feel better by seeing other people hurt. :clyde:

    Trump defenders are the same as the people who supported Hitler during the rise of the Reich only to pretend later that they had no choice and hated him. The same will happen here for most of these fools. Trump will go too far (wherever the fuck that line is), be removed, and some of the people here who sing his praises now will have always been against him, and no post you show that says otherwise will matter, because words mean nothing to these people. It is simply that they must never be wrong. It hurts their fee fees when people call them out for being collaborators.
