That would be Obama.The Cracker-Jack Peace Prize President.
No, he actually won the Nobel. Your president got the Cracker-Jack one, because people know the best way to gain favor with the malignant narcissist is to give him gifts, even if they're worthless.That would be Obama.
The Nobel Peace Prize is a Cracker-Jack prize. The fact that Obama didn't even have to lobby for it, even though he didn't deserve it and didn't earn it, isn't the flex you think it is.No, he actually won the Nobel.

Also too, Obama didn't lobby the committee like Trump, pretending to settle wars in countries he couldn't pronounce, much less find on a map.
Attempt at edgelord failed; also too your attempt to defend your scummy president. I couldn't care less about whatever awards or kudos Obama did or didn't deserve, although it seems to trigger the ◊◊◊◊ out of you.The Nobel Peace Prize is a Cracker-Jack prize.

Which makes seething with jealousy for it even worse than if it weren't, doesn't it?The Nobel Peace Prize is a Cracker-Jack prize.
I didn't say the worst human ever. I suggested it would seem the worst possible insult, though I suppose I should have given better context. Nobody but Hitler is a Hitler, and calling anyone, even Trump, a Hitler would be a mistake. I think there will come a point where a pointed insult to an American politician might be to call him a Trump. Just as one might call an American traitor a Benedict Arnold or a Scandinavian one a Quisling, without having to fine tune the question of whether someone in human history was worse.Aw. How precious. We're already in the progressives' post-fact world. Where Trump is already literally Hitler, and worse than Hitler. Why do you think bruto imagines his grandchildren thinking of Donald, not Adolf, as the worst human ever?
Ah yes, I too recall when noted progressive JD Vance called Trump a Hitler.Aw. How precious. We're already in the progressives' post-fact world. Where Trump is already literally Hitler, and worse than Hitler. Why do you think bruto imagines his grandchildren thinking of Donald, not Adolf, as the worst human ever?
If it is that, then it is very odd to consider not lobbying for it worse than incessantly lobbying for it. Trump's comical pursuit of it is made commensurately ridiculous and pathetic.The Nobel Peace Prize is a Cracker-Jack prize. The fact that Obama didn't even have to lobby for it, even though he didn't deserve it and didn't earn it, isn't the flex you think it is.
I think it is for some.It's not a competition, guys.
Trumplethinskin?Brittle little ◊◊◊◊◊◊ twit.
Kraft dinner Hitler.
Pumpkin dumpster.
Bad tangerine dream.
Papaya lier.
None of them very good, but at least making them up makes me feel a little lighter.
Sour grapes.The Nobel Peace Prize is a Cracker-Jack prize.
The Nobel Committee disagreed with you. This is why Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize:That would be Obama.
... the Nobel Committee lauded Obama for his “extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples”. Emphasis was also given to his support - in word and deed - for the vision of a world free from nuclear weapons.
Even before the election, Obama had advocated dialogue and cooperation across national, ethnic, religious and political dividing lines. As President, he called for a new start to relations between the Muslim world and the West based on common interests and mutual understanding and respect. In accordance with a promise he made during his election campaign, he set in motion a plan for the withdrawal of U.S. occupying forces from Iraq.
The Nobel Committee is the Cracker Jack box.The Nobel Committee disagreed with you. This is why Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize:
It's true that Trump has an unseemly appreciation for meaningless accolades.Trump is so thirsty for that same award because he knows Obama is everything he is not.
So triggered.The Nobel Committee is the Cracker Jack box.
It's true that Trump has an unseemly appreciation for meaningless accolades.
The Nobel Committee is the Cracker Jack box.
Maybe you should write a letter to the Nobel Committee and let them know you're unhappy with them.It's true that Trump has an unseemly appreciation for meaningless accolades.
I'm sure the Nobel Peace Prize Committee already know they're buffoons.Maybe you should write a letter to the Nobel Committee and let them know you're unhappy with them.
Private Eye refers to him as "a lame duck à l'orange" in their current issue.Lame Duck L’orange
Do they now? And why is that? That they didn't choose to award the Nobel Peace Prize to a convicted felon? A man found to have committed rape? A man who openly supports dictators? Or that the only thing Trump has ever done to promote peace is support fascist dictators like Vlad the Impaler Putin and mass murderer sleazeball Netanyahu?I'm sure the Nobel Peace Prize Committee already know they're buffoons.
Are you really expecting an honest, serious answer?I'm really curious theprestige. Why did you laugh at my post, but never addressed my points? Again, my question is why is the Nobel Peace Prize Committee buffoons? And what exactly makes Trump deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize?
Of course not. I just wanted to point out that none of his rant and sarcasm is based on good defensible reasons. Because if he had any he would present them.Are you really expecting an honest, serious answer?
Ummm... why exactly would someone 'lobby' for a peace prize? Seems like a rather bizarre thing for a person to do.The Nobel Peace Prize is a Cracker-Jack prize. The fact that Obama didn't even have to lobby for it
Its understandable that some might be suspicious of Obama receiving the peace prize without having much of a track record....even though he didn't deserve it and didn't earn it, isn't the flex you think it is.
Happens all the time. It's literally how people get nominated.Re: "The Cracker-Jack Peace Prize President." nick name...
Ummm... why exactly would someone 'lobby' for a peace prize? Seems like a rather bizarre thing for a person to do.
I wouldn't describe Machado as that.I think they're buffoons for awarding the prize to a woman who wants to be the Trump of her country, but that's just me.
Surely nominations are put in based on who people feel should win, rather than who they know would really like to? If that's the case, please nominate me, I could use the money.
No. She wants to replace Maduro certainly. But not to create a dictatorship.Isn't she the one who wants to replace Maduro in Venezuela with her own dictatorship?
Further down in that link:No. She wants to replace Maduro certainly. But not to create a dictatorship.
María Corina Machado Parisca is a Venezuelan politician, activist, and prominent leader of the opposition to the administrations of Hugo Chávez and Nicolás Maduro. She served as a member of the National Assembly of Venezuela from 2011 to 2014, and has run as a candidate in presidential elections.
An industrial engineer with a master's degree in finance, Machado began her political career as a founder of the vote-monitoring organization Súmate. She is the National Coordinator of the political party Vente Venezuela and ran in the 2012 opposition presidential primary, which she lost to Henrique Capriles. During the 2014 Venezuelan protests, she played a leading role in organizing demonstrations against Maduro's government.
In 2023, Machado won the opposition primary to become the unity candidate for the 2024 presidential election.[5] The Venezuelan government subsequently barred her from running in the election.[6][7][8] She named Corina Yoris as a replacement candidate, who was later replaced by Edmundo González. The opposition presented vote tallies that showed González winning the July 2024 election in a landslide, while the government-run National Electoral Council declared victory for Maduro without presenting evidence.[9] Shortly after the presidential election, Machado announced that she had gone into hiding, citing fears for her life and freedom under the Maduro government.[10]
In 2025, Machado was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize "for her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy".[11] She was named one of BBC's 100 Women in 2018, and listed among Time magazine's 100 most influential people in 2025. In 2024, Machado received the Václav Havel Human Rights Prize and the Sakharov Prize (shared with González) for representing Venezuelans fighting for democracy.[12][13]

In February 2023, El País described Machado as being part of the "most radical wing of the right", whose views on social media are defended by the national right "MAGAzuelans", sometimes described as the expression of "the Venezuelan far right". Also in February 2023, Bloomberg News described her as "a conservative firebrand". In June 2023, El País described her as radical in the sense of believing only military intervention could remove Maduro, and as coming from the most radical wing of the political right and the Venezuelan opposition, and Peru's La República described her as having "professed an anti-Chavista speech and maintained an extreme right-wing stance".
Machado called Javier Milei's victory in the 2023 Argentine presidential election a triumph in the fight for "change" and "freedom" in Latin America, and said that their political projects shared a common thread in the "fundamental role of freedom" professed by Milei. Machado is also a supporter of U.S. president Donald Trump, whom she described in 2025 as a "visionary" in relation to his opposition to the Maduro government in Venezuela. Criticism of Machado has come from some Venezuelans who say she has not spoken forcefully against the deportation of Venezuelans under the second Trump administration.
Yes, she's a real paragon.After she won the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize, Machado stated that Trump "certainly deserves" to win the 2026 award as "in only nine months, so many conflicts have been solved or prevented". After he deployed the Navy to the Caribbean in 2025, Machado praised the Trump administration. One of her advisors told The New York Times that she has coordinated with the Trump administration and that she has a plan for the first hundred hours after Maduro is deposed.
Fair enough.Further down in that link:
Yes, she's a real paragon.
She may indeed be very right-wing Trump-lite and be friends with an Argentinian nutcase. But she is also legitimately elected by the people of Venezuela. So they will have to deal with her, whatever happens.Yes, she's a real paragon.
