Institute a new Nobel Prize for War … Trump could get it rather easily.
Why doesUSA not strengthen its gun laws? Just hearing of another gun massacre of children..5 am UK 16/10/26.
If she puts war criminals in prison, she should have said she'll be working with trump soon.
He is drunk without the alcohol
Facts??? You wish!
Breaking News: The Norwegian Nobel Committee announce a new annual prize the Nobel Idiocy Prize and award it to Trump in perpetuity! Will this shut him up?
As the UK, Sweden & US all prove you can still win and not be a party's darling.
Don't forget that man due to be executed is a paraplegic in a wheelchair! Sick!
Doesnt one have to be nominated for the NPP? – was The Orange Tan nom'd? – if so, who nom'd it? – or is it that the previous nom by Neten-yahoo carries over from previous year?
Can they give jack Smith the prize next year ? it will completely blow his orange brain
Is there a Nobel POS Prize? Give Chump one of those.
What hostages?
Trump said that he did things that nobody else has done, for once he told the truth, nobody else has caused so much suffering in such a short time 👏
Okay, i just subscribed. Hope it helps. 👍🏾
Let's create a new Nobel Prize category for stupidity and immorality and unpopularity so Donnie can win every time.
It’s only an embarrassment because he (Trump) has made such an issue of it. Giving the undeserved Trump the prize just to please him would devalue the entire enterprise
Trump truly believes his own rhetoric!!! He believes everything he says. He doesn't lie. He drinks his own Kool-aid. The second he says it …..he believes it!!!
Its mind boggling that there has been so few calls to action from the US public!!! The US has been seen as an aggressive country around the world for decades…..where is this aggression when your country is attacked from the inside. I think that the US public is still just as surprised as the rest of us. They seem to think that their country will just automatically fix itself after Trump is gone. The mess he will leave when he is gone will be huge. They might need us Canadians then. Please legislate on our "niceness" so we can turn our backs when help is needed. LOL.
WAKE UP!!!
In his delusional mind, he believes all other world leaders bow to him, and that is why he bragged about being able to end the Russia/Ukraine war in 24 hours.
He is seriously incapable of accepting that the world is laughing at him, even when it is literally on video. Unless Natalie is protecting him from seeing the video.
49:00 It's possible Talarico's lost his voice. It's also possible that he's been intentionally infected with some contagion.
"It was just a Freudian slip. What Donald Trump actually intended to say was: 'I ignited more wars than any president in history.'"
Wasn't one of his "wars" , Albania & Armenia? Remember a large "get-together", the two leaders shook hands & congratulations, while they laughed behind Trumps back!
Why not make a deal:
" Epstein Files Handover VS Nobel Prize"
While a Nobel Peace Prize might not fit someone with a knack for conflict, awarding Donald Trump a share of this year’s Physics Prize alongside Francis Halzen makes perfect sense. After all, if Halzen won for discovering 'ghost particles,' Trump certainly qualifies as an expert in imagining ghosts.
Greetings Neighbors Beasties🎉🎉😊😊
In Europe we simply celebrate when Donald gets so pissed off ! 😀
trump did end the war with Iran 27 times though he did start the war with Iran 28 times
Narcs need external narcissistic supply that is why Trump is obsessed over the peace prize. He’s an empty shell of human being who needs every trophy award and accolade to momentarily fill his ego. It’s like a drug to narcissist. As simple and pathetic as that. Everything Trump does and says is a textbook narcissistic reaction.
WE ARE ALREADY WATCHING THEM KILL PEOPLE ON TV. ICE IS DOING THIS WHEREVER THEY GO.
Trump need to end his Iran and Trump illegal war.
Side effects of too much testosterone?
OBAMA DESERVED WHAT WAS AWARDED TO HIM. THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE.
He froze all her banking, credit cards, etc.
Now that the Nobel has slipped out of Trump's grasp, he will release the reins holding Hegseth and Rubio back from attacking Cuba.
Trump is so full of shit! 8 wars? Bullshit!!! He's fucking delusional!
Hello, reporting from 3 days in the future. Jimmy Talarico is back and sounds fine. In a TV interview he made a "dad joke" about Ken Paxton suffering from a "rare medical condition: clinical levels of cowardice." He has also been posting with good-looking women. This enrages the MAGats, who all have a weird, anxious and confused take on sexuality. The idea that someone they characterise as a "vaguein" to quote Donald Trump, (when he means "vegan") hence an effeminate "girly man" – and not a "real man" – is actually hot and the ladies like him, really grinds their sad little gears.
President Jon Ossoff has a nice ring to it.
I recommend anyone read or reread the first chapter of Michel Foucault's masterpiece Discipline and Punish to understand what a public execution means in the context of the spectacle of the power of monarchy over the human body. This act by Trump – if he allows it – is a weird historical regression. A reminder of his wish to be considered a king. In the context of early modern European history, public executions were not merely a means of enforcing criminal law; they were a highly orchestrated spectacle designed to manifest the absolute power of the monarchy directly upon the human body.
This concept, most famously analysed by philosopher Michel Foucault in his seminal work Discipline and Punish, highlights several key meanings behind this practice:
1. The Sovereign's Right over Life and Death
Under absolute monarchies, a crime was not viewed just as an offence against a victim or society but as a direct personal assault on the king's authority.
• The Body as the Legal Site: Because the monarch was the law, breaking the law was an act of treason or rebellion.
• Physical Re-enactment: The execution was a ritualised battle where the monarch always won. Destroying the condemned person's body was the physical manifestation of the king re-establishing his absolute dominion.
2. The Asymmetry of Power
The sheer brutality of public torture and execution was intentional. It was meant to showcase a massive, unyielding imbalance of power.
• The Sovereign's Might: The contrast between the defenceless body of the prisoner and the total, crushing power of the state apparatus demonstrated that resistance to the monarch was entirely futile.
• Physical Destruction: Mechanisms like drawing and quartering or burning at the stake literally dismantled the human body, symbolising how the sovereign could dissolve anyone who crossed the crown.
3. Public Theatre as a Deterrent
For the spectacle to work, it required an audience. The public square served as a theatre of state terror.
One will only even the game ,beware of his new versions for #2 !
I hope you never get a peach prize but a prison prize
The Nobel Peace Prize committee keeps every thing a secret for 50 years. They do not inform anyone if they are under consideration. They don't post a final ranking of the individuals nominated. Trump claims that he was cheated. Was he even under consideration. If nominated he may not have been in the top ten. This is pure Trump speak. He lures people into believing things that aren't being said.
