Trump Implies At Rally That He's Already Won The Nobel Peace Prize

Donald Trump falsely declared at a North Carolina rally Saturday that he and his supporters are being honored with the Nobel Peace Prize.

Trump was nominated for the prize by a far-right Norwegian politician — but it’s highly unlikely he’ll get the award. Adolf Hitler was nominated for the peace prize in 1939 by a member of the Swedish parliament.

“You love your president, and your president gets honored,” Trump told the crowd in Fayetteville. “I’m not being honored, you’re being honored, with the Nobel Peace Prize for Israel, what we did with Israel.”

Trump was nominated for the 2021 prize by Christian Tybring-Gjedde, a member of Norway’s far-right Progress Party.

In a couple weeks Barr will do the unthinkable at which time we MUST not react.

We MUST just wait for Nov 3.

The thing I dont know what to do about is when DeJoy orders all postal employees not to postmark ballots. Dont know how to deal with that one, and it surely is coming.

Medicine, for his innovative applications of bleach and herd mentality to defeat covid!

Chemistry, for provoking reactions!

Physics, for his ground-breaking use of sharpies, paper towels, and nuclear weapons in hurricane science!

Literature, for his many many. People are saying. I don't know but that's what they say. Covfefe!

Maybe he, er, misspoke

https://www.improbable.com/ig-about/winners/


MEDICAL EDUCATION PRIZE [BRAZIL, UK, INDIA, MEXICO, BELARUS, USA, TURKEY, RUSSIA, TURKMENISTAN]
Jair Bolsonaro of Brazil, Boris Johnson of the United Kingdom, Narendra Modi of India, Andrés Manuel López Obrador of Mexico, Alexander Lukashenko of Belarus, Donald Trump of the USA, Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey, Vladimir Putin of Russia, and Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow of Turkmenistan, for using the Covid-19 viral pandemic to teach the world that politicians can have a more immediate effect on life and death than scientists and doctors can.
REFERENCE: Numerous news reports.
NOTE: This is the second Ig Nobel Prize awarded to Alexander Lukashenko. In the year 2013, the Ig Nobel Peace Prize was awarded jointly to Alexander Lukashenko, for making it illegal to applaud in public, AND to the Belarus State Police, for arresting a one-armed man for applauding.


I'm sure that a suitably-framed certificate can be provided and I doubt he, or the cult, would do anything short of treasure the "honor"
