Exactly. My initial response 👇🏻

Well, at this point, methinks the warmonger has completely destroyed any chance of ever receiving a NPP. And the following remarks certainly won’t help. In fact, they’ll likely have the opposite impact on Donny’s obvious efforts to publicly humiliate and shame the committee into granting him one. And apparently Donny boy still hasn’t figured out that committed professionals like those who sit on the NPP committee don’t like to be bullied by politicians like djt.

“The White House has accused the Nobel Committee of placing "politics over peace" for awarding its most coveted prize to a Venezuelan pro-democracy activist over US President Donald Trump.”

“Trump also said in late September that a snub would be "a big insult to our country".

And he also posted this statement on TS for the world to see.

"Thank you to President Putin!" Trump wrote on Truth Social on Friday alongside a video of Putin saying "this award has lost credibility".

So, bottom line - NEW RULE - anyone who has to repeatedly pound his own chest, threaten or bribe somebody to nominate him, criticize another recipients, or whine and beg endlessly for a Nobel Peace Prize, while simultaneously and brazenly destroying the democracy he governs, by inserting a violent authoritarian regime, breaking the law, denying rights, and creating WAR against the citizens of his own country, without due process, is automatically disqualified from receiving a Nobel PEACE Prize!!! ENOUGH ALREADY!

But should Norway be concerned about repercussions?

“Norway braces for Trump’s reaction if he does not win Nobel peace prize

US president may impose tariffs, demand higher NATO contributions or even declare Norway an enemy, analyst says.”

“With hours to go until the announcement of this year’s Nobel peace prize, Norwegian politicians were steeling themselves for potential repercussions to US-Norway relations if it is not awarded to Donald Trump.

“Kirsti Bergstø, the leader of Norway’s Socialist Left party and its foreign policy spokesperson, said Oslo must be “prepared for anything.”

“In July, Trump reportedly called Jens Stoltenberg, Norway’s finance minister and the former Nato secretary general, to ask about the Nobel prize. At the UN last month, Trump falsely claimed that he had halted seven “unendable wars”, telling world leaders: “Everyone says I should get the Nobel peace prize.”

“Donald Trump is taking the US in an extreme direction, attacking freedom of speech, having masked secret police kidnapping people in broad daylight and cracking down on institutions and the courts. When the president is this volatile and authoritarian, of course we have to be prepared for anything,” Bergstø told the Guardian.”

Putin's goal is to damage the stature of the US. He is still fighting the cold war. Manipulating Trump into damaging the US is part of it, but at this stage he wants to tear Trump down. I can see that clearly from many different small choices, but perhaps because Putin realizes Trump is losing control and his handlers may cause Putin problems. So, easier to tear Trump down than to get at the handlers.

Rosemary. I don’t believe he was ever in the running. It was a little carrot held out to him by people who need him for their own purposes: netanyahu and putin. Just because someone has been nominated for the Nobel, they aren’t automatically considered. According to the President of the committee, they get thousands of letters of nominations.

First Inaugural Address of President James Monroe, The Avalon Project, Yale Law School, March 4, 1817 https://tinyurl.com/a89jym29

What are the dangers which menace us? If any exist they ought to be ascertained and guarded against. While, then, the constituent body retains its present sound and healthful state everything will be safe. They will choose competent and faithful representatives for every department. It is only when the people become ignorant and corrupt, when they degenerate into a populace, that they are incapable of exercising the sovereignty. Usurpation is then an easy attainment, and an usurper soon found. The people themselves become the willing instruments of their own debasement and ruin. Let us, then, look to the great cause, and endeavor to preserve it in full force. Let us by all wise and constitutional measures promote intelligence among the people as the best means of preserving our liberties. We must support our rights or lose our character, and with it, perhaps, our liberties. A people who fail to do it can scarcely be said to hold a place among independent nations. National honor is national property of the highest value. The sentiment in the mind of every citizen is national strength. It ought therefore to be cherished.
