'No one ever heard of her': Trump goes off on petty rant after Nobel Peace Prize snub

Trump claimed he "should have won 8 Nobel Peace Prizes" for having "settled 8 wars" as he dismissed Pillay's career in an irate Truth Social post.

Abstract editorial illustration

U.S. President Donald Trump launched a harsh critique of the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to South African jurist Navanethem Navi Pillay on social media platform Truth Social. In his post, Trump lambasted the decision, claiming ignorance about Pillay's career and alleging she harbors animosity towards Israel. He then boasted about his own diplomatic accomplishments, insisting he deserved eight Nobel Peace Prizes for settling eight wars, including those in Iran, Ukraine, and other regions.

Trump's rant grew increasingly aggressive, culminating in a broad condemnation of the Nobel Peace Prize as discredited by "radical ideologues" who are anti-democracy.
