From the ABC (Aus) story I just read: 'After dropping the bombs, Mr Trump said now was the time for peace,... '
Insanity.
You ever play tag with that kid who called time out right before getting tagged?
He said that in the same tweet that he announced the US attacked Iran.
Just saw that as well. What the fuck is congress doing?
Same thing they've always done: nothing.
*Cashing bribes
The party in control of the house and senate is praising him.
Half of the opposition is saying he is not hawkish enough

- He is waging war against his own country
- He threatens to invade Greenland
- He threatens to invade Panama
- He is actively attempting to destroy the economy of his neighbouring country/ally with intent of coercing it into annexation and constantly disrespects its sovereignty.
- He blatantly said he would encourage Russia to invade other countries and his actions have been supporting that too
- His cuts in aid will result in thousands of people dying of starvation while food is left rotting in storage
He just unilaterally had 3 nuclear sites in Iran bombed.
Update: Over 400,000 people have already died from the termination of USAid money, most of those from food bank programs ending.
Obama lives rent free in his head.
“A black man better than ME in every way, shape, and form! I must punish America and the world for this infraction!” - Trump probably
Obama wasn't as funny in that 'always sunny in philadelphia' kinda way. Maybe just as funny over all, even if we mostly laugh at trump. So trump has that.
I don't think Obama is as good as sleaze. He might be; Chicago has some pretty good sleaze, but I think trump is genuinely a world historic talent.
And, um... Clogging toilets (with stolen documents)? Obama to my knowledge isn't better at that than anyone else. Seems pretty regular. His wife probably makes him eat real food.
Previous U.S. presidents to receive a Nobel Peace Prize include Theodore Roosevelt in 1906, President Woodrow Wilson in 1920, President Jimmy Carter in 2002, and President Barack Obama in 2009. Al Gore, a former vice president, also received the prize in 2007 for his efforts to raise awareness about climate change.
It brings me great joy that Mafia Don Mangolini is so incensed for many years now that these "Dems"/"Progressives" have received the prize and he has not. It sticks in his craw so badly. 😂 🤣
Gotta love it.
🤡 🫏 🖕 💩
Obama having one is what’s causing his ulcer.
“Epic meltdown” is such a stupid way to describe this.
Nobel Peace Prize? Motherfucker just bombed Iran. Pick a lane you lunatic.
This fuck just bombed Iran unprovoked. FUCK
Same fuck that withdrew from the negotiated JCPOA, then complained about Iran not negotiating well enough to get a new deal.
Did Iran even offer him a single fake-gold airplane? What's a guy supposed to do to get a bribe around here?

Some no name group in Pakistan should just set up a 'Nobele Peace Prize' committee and award him the prize in a big grand ceremony in Lahore.
In the ceremony, just place a large oversized gold coloured metal cheap copy of the Nobel Peace Prize and put over Trump's neck.
It's not like these idiots follow convention or want to agree with reality - we would know but they wouldn't care and they could go on living in their own delusional reality.

When trump dies we should all get a Nobel Peace Prize.
Give me noble prize now ✌️
Looks like he's going to lick his eye holes like a lizard or frog.
"Epic meltdown" = fifth unhinged rant in the last 24 hours
🙄
Anyway...
...he hasn't done one thing.
Well he just bombed Iran, hell of a sign of peace

Dementia should be an immediate eviction from office.
That's what the 25th amendment is for, but trump has always been a useful idiot. His mental state has never been a consideration, all that matters is his ability to sign whatever legislation crosses his desk
Right before igniting chaos across the middle east‽
Where is the list of reasons he deserves kicks in the ass?
Aaaaaanddd he just bombed Iran lol
It's okay because it was for peace, he said so himself. Therefore he deserves the prize. /s
Next he'll demand the Nobel Prize in Economics after he crashes the economy.
Sounds like one of his typical meltdowns.
Krasnov should receive the "Order of Saint Andrew the Apostle the First-Called," Russia's highest civilian medal.
A man who has to say that he is the king, is not the king.
I'm not creating an account for that website. Does he actually list the reasons, or is there nothing more than claims of a 'series of deals'? That isn't a compelling argument.
I didn't want to either, so here is a link to the full article: http://archive.today/2025.06.21-220113/https://www.thedailybeast.com/trump-lists-reasons-he-deserves-nobel-prize-in-epic-meltdown/
And here is the part you ask about:
“I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping the War between India and Pakistan, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping the War between Serbia and Kosovo, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for keeping Peace between Egypt and Ethiopia (A massive Ethiopian built dam, stupidly financed by the United States of America, substantially reduces the water flowing into The Nile River),” Trump wrote on Friday. “And I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for doing the Abraham Accords in the Middle East which, if all goes well, will be loaded to the brim with additional Countries signing on, and will unify the Middle East for the first time in ‘The Ages!’”
He added, “No, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize no matter what I do, including Russia/Ukraine, and Israel/Iran, whatever those outcomes may be, but the people know, and that’s all that matters to me!
If they actually give him a nobel peace price I don't think I'll be able to comprehend that. My brain will have an error for as long as I live probably.

Did he actually do anything with India/Pakistan?
No lol. India basically told him to fuck off.
This is a prank article, right?
Unless he is actually melting down in a nuclear reaction please stop reporting on this shit.
I only care about him if he's dead.
