Trump goes off on Norway for awarding Nobel Peace Prize to ‘mystery woman’ — claims he deserves ‘eight’ medals
Victor Nava / NEW YORK POST
President Trump made the case Friday that he deserves eight Nobel Peace Prize medals, as he railed against Norway for snubbing him for a second-straight year.
“Today they gave out the Nobel Peace Prize to a person – I never heard of the person. Nobody did. It’s a mystery person,” Trump said at a rally in Syracuse, NY.
Trump dismissed the winner, Navi Pillay, as a “liberal person who works at the United Nations.”
“I never heard of this particular person, but congratulations anyway,” he added, noting that “in all of the wars that I’ve settled, I never spoke to the United Nations.
The president then tore into the five-person Norwegian Nobel Committee that honored Pillay.
“The United States of America, represented by me as your president, should have received the Nobel Peace Prize, but didn’t,” he argued.
