Trump: ‘They Probably Will Never Give’ Me the Nobel Peace Prize, Despite What We’ve Accomplished

by Josh Feldman | Oct 27th, 2018, 4:51 pm

During his speech to the Future Farmers of America, President Donald Trump went on a tangent about why he will never get a Nobel Peace Prize.

He brought up Dr. Norman Borlaug and when he received the honor in 1970, before saying this of the Nobel Peace Prize:

“We won the Nobel Peace Prize. They probably will never give it to me, even what I’m doing in Korea and Idlib province and all of these places. They probably will never give it to me. You know why? Because they don’t want to.”

Trump Mocks Elizabeth Warren at Event: I Have ‘More Indian Blood’ Than She Does

by Aidan McLaughlin | Oct 27th, 2018, 5:01 pm

President Donald Trump mocked Senator Elizabeth Warren at an event on Saturday

Appearing at the Future Farmers of America convention in Indiana, Trump delivered a rally-style speech. After speaking out about the mass shooting at a Pennsylvania synagogue on Saturday morning that left at least 11 dead, Trump turned to his usual topics.

He apparently referenced Warren’s recent claims to Native American heritage when imagining debating her in the 2020 campaign. “Maybe Elizabeth Warren is gone,” Trump said. “She may be gone. She may be gone. What a sad thing happened to her. Turned out that I had more Indian blood in me than she has.”

As the crowd began to cheer, Trump continued: “What a sad event. And I have none.”

“We can’t resist,” he added. “Can we resist?”

Never in my lifetime have I seen Americans so divided. Trump has in such a short time brought forth the demons that had been dormant for so long it's unbelievable. I never thought I would see American so unlike our ideals. All thanks to a spoiled, draft dodging, egotistical creep who is anti American. One day he will see Karma up close and personal.

I thought Americans were far better than this. Boy did I ever misjudge our society. To know that there are this many vile people running around in public life is unsettling. Probably about 3 in every 10 people you pass in the grocery store have this hate stored up in their hearts. A lot of them are packing hidden guns. Its very unsettling.

These people who listen to this insane corrupt crook must be out of their little minds? Day after day he demonstrates that he is truly insane. I think those who flock to him are just as crazy. Those who followed hitler were just like the people who support tRUMP. I find it hard to believe that the people in this country have REGRESSED versus PROGRESSED? Maybe it is to much INBREEDING which has lead to people NOT knowing better concerning following the presidential FOOL?
