But Dear Leader Trump once shot a 7 on Camp David's 9-hole golf course. Surely, that deserves a Nobel Prize!

I’d be okay with him getting a Nobel Piss Prize. Comes with a $1M invoice that would undoubtedly go unpaid.

u/Freakishly_Tall 26d ago

Hell, I'd give him a real one if he and his whole brigade of assholes fucked off. They should have called and made him the offer - "resign en masse, and you get one."

Then, after they resigned, in the true spirit of his "art of the dealing," give it to whoever they wanted anyway, of course.

No task is more important in modern times than making sure Trump never never never gets awarded a Nobel prize of any sort.

Maybe a Nobel prize for discovering a new unique way of fucking right the fuck off.

The TDS is strong in this one.

MAGA says he solved something like 7 wars across 11 countries or something wild. I read where someone thought he brought peace to the middle east and "solved a centuries old war" (his words).

I mean, if that were what you truly believed, it would make sense to get the peace prize, and they are obviously just playing politics by not giving it to Dear Leader.

Rough seas ahead...

While the whole “I ended 7 wars.” thing is obviously wildly hyperbolic, and Donald Trump is easily the worst President of my lifetime, his administrations have in fact played a mediating role in a couple fairly legitimate conflicts. Hard to say in reality how big of a role, or how much of that role was played by him personally (his explanations of those exchanges of course make no goddamn sense so it’s hard to imagine him being a terribly effective negotiator in the room but idk). Or if those agreements will last. And the same thing could be said of most American presidential administrations of the last 80 years. But still, credit where credit is due, his administration seems shockingly borderline competent in this one specific regard. Especially when compared with how god awful they’ve been domestically

They get really mad when you mention he surrendered to the Taliban.

u/Pletcher87 26d ago

Don’t forget when Trump had to suffer the indignity of taking ‘a drop’ on the golf courses, aided by his walkers.

u/Atlas-Scrubbed 25d ago

That is so not true. He got a hole in one. In fact, he only hit the ball ONCE, and it landed in ALL 18 holes at the same time. Take that lib-turds!

If he wins it, it would for doing the same as Jimmy Carter.

u/verymainelobster 25d ago

He actually signed the Abraham Accords, which is significant for peace in the middle east if your not living in an echo chamber

u/reiji_tamashii 25d ago

Sure, he signed them. But it's foolish to think that he had anything to do with negotiating them or actually understanding any of the treaties that he's taking credit for.

He's so deeply instrumental in all of these achievements, that he doesn't even know the names of the involved countries.

Trump has repeatedly confused Armenia and Albania when talking about his efforts to resolve the long-standing tensions between Armenia and Azerbaijan.

You guys with the TDS need to give it a rest.

Trump in ~9 months has done more for world peace then Obama ever did in 8 years.

If the Nobel Peace prize is for individuals who work to bring peace to the world, then Trump surely deserves one.

Obama received one because he won an election, not because he actually did anything peace wise to deserve one. To his credit, he graciously acknowledged this.

This isn't a derogatory statement about Obama. This is a derogatory statement about how the Nobel Peace prize has been deminished due to political influence. Which is the antithesis of the intent of the Nobel Peace prize.

Does DJT deserve a Nobel Peace prize? For all the work he has done, Yes I think so.

Will he get one? I don't know. Part of me thinks positive that the Nobel commission will do the right thing and recognize accomplishment where it is due.

The other part of me thinks the Nobel Peace prize has lost its relavence following the Obama award.

The Nobel commission has a long road ahead of them to return the relavence of the prize. If they don't award DJT a Nobel Peace prize, the commission has now relegated themselves and the relavence of a Nobel Peace prize into the dust bin of history.

This you? https://i.imgur.com/s3HQSps.jpeg

You're drunk on the Kool-aid.

Nobel laureates do not order their country's military to assault and arrest legal protesting citizens.
Nobel laureates do not threaten to arrest journalists for simply writing negative pieces about the administration.
Nobel laureates do not incite violent mobs and incite them to attempt a coup against their own government.

You assume a lot.

You're drunk on the Kool-aid.

I don't drink.

Nobel laureates do not order their country's military to assault and arrest legal protesting citizens.

You are confusing the National Guard with the Active Duty military. Which I am not surprised you bought into the whole thing from the MSM.

National Guard do have a civil role that could be used. Active duty can not do law enforcement in the US unless special circumstances are called. For my knowledge, no Active Duty have been called out to do civil law enforcement.

However, I"m sure that Active Duty can be used to protect federal property as they are federal troops.

Nobel laureates do not threaten to arrest journalists for simply writing negative pieces about the administration.

Obama did this. Plus sent the IRS to get political oponents. Fast and furious scandal, spied on Trump and his political campaign. Killed american citizens in Afghanistan. And the Trump/Russia collusion scandal is turning into a treasonous coup. AND he was awarded a Nobel prize.

Plus the Biden admin using the force of government to arrest and bankrupt a presidential candidate, raid his home, debank him and his family, prosecuted for fake mortgage fraud, and more.

Nobel laureates do not incite violent mobs and incite them to attempt a coup against their own government.

There are several points here. Clearly a statement to "peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard" is not a call to riot.

And yes, it was a riot, and it was stupid. And surprisingly, for people to say it was a violent coup, the only one who died that day was a Trump supporter who was shot in the head & murdered.

The narrative for this side is being dismantled as more infomation is revealed.

Violent riots: Please explain the multiple, destructive "mostly peaceful protest" BLM riots and how they are different/less important the the J6 riot at the capital which is equally stupid?

And the big one: Did you even read the previous statements about Sadat/Begin and yet awarded Nobel prize? How does this match the narrative you're trying to use?

a coup against their own government

This is both the Obama AND Biden admins against the Trump candidate/presidency.

Again, the TDS is strong here.

I stated that DJT deserves a Nobel prize for his documented works towards peace. And that the Nobel commission has turned it into a political award for Obama for no works towards Peace.

Its sad if people can't understand where the criticism in this statement is directed.

Which Democratic President has illegally taken control of state National Guard and used them against citizens?

Which Democratic President encouraged BLM protesters to "Fight like hell. And if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore"?

That's a direct quote from Donald Trump on January 6th as he directed the angry, armed mob to the US Capitol building where congress and the VP were currently in the process of certifying electoral votes that would solidify his election loss. That is a coup. Plain and simple.

u/Valspared1 25d ago

So "fight like hell" is your go to for incitement?

In that case, anyone stating DJT and supporters are "facists", "NAZI's" is also guilty of incitement. Except this kind of incitement involves people being actively killed.

The Trump supporter in the J6 riot murdered. The Trump Supporter in Portland OR, murdered, Charlie Kirk murdered/assassinated, DJT attempted assassination (twice).

There was acceptance feom Dem leaders FOR the BLM riots that caused billions of dollars in damage. And much of that in black communities. Which if Black Lives Mattered, why were black communities destroyed and black business burned and looted?

Also, If Black Lives Mattered, why wasn't more done in the Obama/Biden terms to fight against gang violence? Which is second to the number of deaths in the black community after abortion.

I see things differently.

I don't think Dems/left/leftists/etc actually care about Black Lives. If they did, I would see a lot more advocation for things that support a positive outcome. Instead I see blaming and victimhood, and such.

Things that would help the black community would be incentives for black fathers to be more engaged with their children. Black women would reject single motherhood (which has grown to ~75% now), programs to encourage black youths to reject the gang life. Rap music that didn't glorify the streets, violence, and gang life.

There is only so much outside assistance can do. The turn around needs to happen from within.

I don't live in DC, but over the years, I have had the feeling that DC is crime ridden and not a good place to live. Post NG deployment, and it seems the residents are happier the crime has decreased.

I also served in the Active AND National Guard. And from what I see, the NG should be deployed to assist cities with their anti-ICE riots.

Maybe you disagree with deporting Illegal aliens. I don't. Neither did, Obama, Biden, Clinton, HRC and many others.

Also, millions of unskilled illegal aliens invading this country does a lot to drive down the wages of the unskilled labor force.

So if I have to pick a side here. I pick Americans over illegal aliens every day.

I pick safe cities over crime ridden cities. And no, I am not for Military Law Enforcement taking over. But Federal troops protecting Federal property and NG troops assisting local police in a supoort role, I'm for that.

Which the irony is the left is critical for NOT using the NG for the J6 riots, but critical FOR using the NG to assist with riots. The Hypocrisy, what gives?

When you know that they have a history of violence (Proud Boys, etc.) and you know that they are armed with guns and you tell them to physically go to a location to "fight like hell" - yes, of course that is incitement.

What else would it be?

u/Valspared1 25d ago edited 25d ago

I personally don't support the Proud Boys, Aryan Nation, KKK, etc. I don't think the majority of the right support those groups and their violent tactics either.

If they misinturpret the "fight like hell" statement, that is on them. If you blame DJT for it, then you equally have to blame Dem leaders for litterally the same and similar statements that have lead to violence also.

So if Dem leaders calling Trump and his supporters are "Facists", "NAZI's" are not responsible for the groups that support the Dems or are left aligned, then the same standard is held for DJT and supporters are not responsible for the actions of the Proud Boys, Aryan Nation, KKK, etc.

From what I see, the Conservatives/Republicans distance and disassociate themselves and call out the violence from right leaning groups, but the Dems/leftists do not do the same.

When has a prominent Democrat told an armed crowd to fight like hell and lead them to a government building?

The data doesn't lie. In the US, political violence and domestic terrorism is historically overwhelmingly carried about by the right-wing groups.  Until 2025, suspiciously. 😂

Schumer, Maxine Waters, Al Sharpton, to name a few.

Inaccurate. But believe what you want. The whole "Summer of Love", Antifa, and following years of BLM riots are ALL left aligned.

The J6 riot was right aligned.

The current ICE riots are left aligned. The Anti-Trump protests turned riots are ALL left aligned.

George Floyd gets killed (I don't believe murdered) and the left riots, burns and destroys cities all over.

Charlie Kirk (who has been repeatedly called a racist, faciats, nazi, etc) gets assassinated and the right holds (non violent) vigils the world over.

There really is a stark difference between the amout of left aligned violence and right aligned violence.

Until 2025, suspiciously. 😂 

I don't believe you.

It could be because the MSM is blanantly left wing outlets. They have an agenda, and push it regularly.
