White House slams Trump’s perceived Nobel peace prize snub as ‘politics over peace’

The White House has denounced the Norwegian Nobel Committee’s decision to award the Nobel peace prize to someone other than Donald Trump.
Following Friday’s announcement that the Venezuelan opposition politician María Corina Machado had been awarded the prize, senior aides to the US president attacked the Norwegian committee as politicised while Norway braced itself for a potential diplomatic response from the White House.
“The Nobel Committee proved they place politics over peace,” wrote Steven Cheung, a Trump aide and the White House’s director of communications.
Trump will “continue making peace deals, ending wars, and saving lives”, he wrote. “He has the heart of a humanitarian, and there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will.”

What confuses me is that Mushroom Cock himself posted on Truth.Social Machado’s Twitter post in which she specifically mentions him thusly:

I’m going to assume the phrase “to conquer Freedom” is an unfortunate AI translation rather than her meaning that she’s going to overcome freedom so that she wins against it. But that’s beside the point. Drumpf doesn’t post shit like this unless he thinks it makes him look good, which suggests he actually is OK with Machado winning…? Maybe he’s seething behind the scenes? But he seethes so much publicly and has so little self-control I feel that’s unlikely. Are the minions just getting outraged to keep in his favour? Almost certainly:

Donald Trump did not win the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize, so his GOP allies in the House are working to slap together the next best thing: a resolution to get him one.
Speaking with Fox Business Friday morning, Representative Buddy Carter said that (instead of working to end the government shutdown) he and his colleagues were going to file a resolution “today” to honor the president with the Nobel Prize.
“[Donald Trump] deserves the Nobel Peace Prize,” Carter told the network. “That’s why I’m introducing a resolution today for a sense of Congress today that will honor him with the Nobel Peace Prize.
“If need be, we’ll call for a discharge petition on that. I hope we can work with the speaker though and get it on the floor for a vote,” Carter added.

Needless to say this is not how the Nobel process works, or anything else for that matter… but I feel this will actually come off, cos it’s the sort of thing the Republicans would support, and the bigger-league Democrats are too craven to resist. Will the participation trophy be enough to keep Krasnov quiet, though? He won’t say no, obviously, but I don’t think he’ll be happy until he gets the real thing…
