Humble request to US voters, in the interest of RoW:

next time, could you consider electing people whose emotional development has passed that of a 5-year old?


Trump tells Norway's PM he has no obligation to 'think purely of peace' after Nobel snub

Trump has boasted about ending eight wars, styling himself as "the president of peace" and therefore deserving of the Nobel honour but those claims have been exaggerated. US President Donald Trump told Norway's prime minister he no longer needed to think "purely of peace" after failing to win the Nobel Peace Prize, in a message published on Monday. "Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace," Trump said in a message to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre. The authenticity of the message was confirmed to the AFP news agency by a source close to the matter and by Støre to Norwegian newspaper VG.

It is unclear why Trump decided to send a message to Støre as the peace prize is decided by the Norwegian Nobel Committee and not the government. ...

He thinks it’s perfectly normal to invade another country because he didn’t get a fucking medal? Trump is insane. And his behavior continues to worsen.

And Republicans sit back and do nothing while he dismantles our republic, does nothing about rising costs of food, housing, and healthcare, oversees the fastest accumulation of a trillion dollars in debt outside of the COVID-19 pandemic (also under Trump), and is getting us into an unnecessary war.

Americans, ………… you chose poorly.

i guess that since at least trump sent the nonsense message to the right country, it doesnt detract from his 'giraffe,zebra,bear' IQ score.

which puts him ahead of shredm MAGA.

SuisseMiss,

Trump has a unique ability to troll people who don't care for him by just stating basic facts of reality, that lots of people don't find pleasant to think about and try to stuff in the back of their heads most of the time.

The U.S. President has access to thousands of nuclear warheads and the delivery capabilities to basically bomb the world back into the stone age.

The U.S. Presidency has NEVER been "all about peace."

To think it ever has been "all about peace" one would have to be ignorant of history in a very profound way.

Trump was just stating the obvious, as he frequently does.

A perfectly reasonable request. I eagerly await the MAGA crowd’s characteristically nuanced and intellectually rigorous replies.

Unfortunately, as you can probably tell from the posters here, we have a lot of voters whose emotional development is also that of a 5 year old. It may take a few decades to get the unruly toddlers back under control. There’s going to be a lot of temper tantrums over here for a while.

So no promises about the future. I suggest you plan accordingly.

It's not a medal, it's a medallion.

And he did get it.

So, the invasion was justified.

Sorry, Suisse Bear, I think he's slipped the rails, gone batchit - old age is hittin his brain. Trump and marco were in the same geography class it seems. What can we do? Work on 26 and 28, hope for a stroke, but then we get Vance. We're screwed for 3 years. I think many of us are shocked at how easily the government was dismantled. And what he's done to NATO, but notice how Dope is perfectly in line with that? MAGA knows the price of everything but the value of nothing. I value our European allies, even Orban.

Perhaps you recognize a slight disconnect between

1. Trump speaking about stopping foreign adventures (while still on the campaign trail) and

2. Trump speaking about starting wars based on a tantrum over not getting the Nobel peace prize (while in office).

Cognitive dissonance is rarely recognized by the person exhibiting the symptoms. It is such an exhibition of irrationality that the ego will go into overdrive to protect itself.

--------------------

OK, OK.... Sheesh. I have slowly become disillusioned with Trump with particular emphasis on his reneging on protecting the Iranian Protesters. Deaths exceed 10,000 now! So I won't be voting for Trump again. Any additional bashing of Trump is wasted on me. So besides the bashing, do you guys have any policy proposals that would make our country more secure and more prosperous? It seems to me you should be selling those programs, if you have any, rather than continuous meaningless Trump bashing.

The legacy media is in a pickle here.

If they hype the real casualty numbers in Iran, well that paints a regime they like in a bad light. Can’t have that.

On the other hand, showing the numbers is something they can do to taunt Trump.

Irrelevant. Spankee would NOT be allowed to use them. *The military commanders* also would have to believe THEY were going to be destroyed as well.

Otherwise, they just lock Spankee up and ignore him. If Vance did the same, he would join Spankee in lockup.

LOCK THEM UP !!!

Trump didn't say he would start a war over Greenland.

You guys make shyte up.

That's why you constantly attribute "statements" to Trump, other board members here, and various others, that they never made.

You make stuff up that's false and put it in quotes and falsely attribute it.

Hey maybe you could get a job with the BBC?

Dope1,

WTF is the Left? Shouldn't they be out on the streets and campuses rioting against the Iranian regime???

What about Greta?

Did she run out of boats or something???

Why doesn't she and her comrades take a boat to Iran to help the anti-government protestors???

Something tells me if the Iran regime intercepts the boat, they won't be giving Greta and her boat mates bottled water and Deli hero sandwiches, though.

He’s been given the opportunity on numerous occasions but has refused to rule out the use of force to gain “full and complete control” of Greenland.

This is how North Korea operates.

OK Rev. OH,

You admit Trump never said he would start a war with Greenland.

Yes I know he also never said he wouldn't start a war with Greenland.

As far as I am aware, however, Trump ALSO never said that Rev. OH was NOT a drunken pedophile.

I guess that means you are? Because Trump never said you were not?

Like so many other Leftoids posting here, and AWFULS interfering with ICE operations, logic is not your strong suit.

I had said - if you just stroke this guy, he'll behave.

I had said - give him the Nobel - who gives a shit --- it's for the greater good.

Well.

Now here we are , either evidence that the Nobel thing is part of the reason this little thing called "The West" might be having a problem.

Sometimes you people need to think creatively.

Everything isn't a link or a podcast or an NPR story.

I know -- no takers.

So, the beat goes on......

You’ve been given numerous opportunities to rule out the consumption of Beyond Meat for your lunch today and you continue to refuse to do so. Why are you in favor of chemically engineered fake protein?

The difference being- I didn’t break into another faux meat factory two weeks ago, abduct the CEO and claim their vats of soy goo as mine to do with what I pleased.
