Donald Trump Makes The Pettiest Jealous Gripe About Barack Obama

Donald Trump on Thursday complained that he doesn’t have a Nobel Peace Prize but fellow ex-President Barack Obama undeservedly does. (Watch the video below.)

Obama won it in 2009 “for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples,” according to the Nobel Prize website .

At a campaign stop in Detroit, the Republican nominee grumbled about the perceived diss while saying he wasn’t “politicking” for the honor.

He touted the Abraham Accords reached during his administration to normalize relations between Israel and some Arab nations. Then he detoured into his jealous gripe.

“If I were named Obama I would have had the Nobel Prize given to me in 10 seconds,” he said. “He got the Nobel Prize. He didn’t even know what the hell he got it for. Remember, he got elected. Well so did I. He got elected and they announced he was getting the Nobel Prize. ... He got the Nobel Prize for doing nothing, for getting elected, but I got elected too.”

The lack of a Nobel Peace Prize has been a simmering issue for Trump, who has been nominated several times . ( Thousands of people are eligible to nominate the candidates; Trump has been nominated twice by the same far-right Norwegian politician.)

Trump called the agreement “unprecedented” and suggested he should have been given the prestigious award for it.

“I’m just saying, if it was anybody else, liberal, Democrat, they would’ve had it before the damn thing was even signed,” he said.

“I’m not politicking for it,” he added. “I’m just saying that there’s a lot of unfairness in this world.”
