The World Applauded, the Committee Looked Away
When news broke that Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado won the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize, the global press practically broke into applause. Yet as they hailed her courage, one headline stood out—not for what it said, but for what it didn’t: “Trump Loses Nobel Prize.” There it was. The man who brokered peace between Israel and Hamas, helped calm tensions across across the world, and stared down the world’s toughest regimes, got treated like he missed a free throw. The story wasn’t about who made peace—it was about who made the committee uncomfortable.
Trump’s Record Doesn’t Need Oslo’s Approval
Before the announcement, President Trump reminded reporters that he’s “stopped eight wars in nine months”—a statement that would make any historian choke on their latte. While the Nobel panel was still counting votes, Trump was saving lives. Whether it was Israel and Hamas, India and Pakistan, or the long-bitter rivals of Eastern Europe, he leveraged trade, diplomacy, and good old-fashioned common sense to keep the peace. No flowery speeches, no Nobel campaigns—just results.
When Obama Got a Trophy, Trump Got to Work
Trump didn’t hold back when asked about Barack Obama’s 2009 Nobel win. “He got a prize for doing nothing,” Trump quipped, “for destroying our country.” The crowd laughed, but his point was deadly serious. Obama’s award came eleven days into his presidency—before he’d even had time to hang curtains in the Oval Office. Trump, meanwhile, earned global ceasefires, freed hostages, and dismantled terror networks. But to the Nobel Committee, that’s apparently less inspiring than a good speech about “hope.”
The Media’s Favorite Sport: Pretending Not to Notice
Mainstream headlines told the story in perfect unison: “Machado Wins,” “Trump Loses.” CNN, BBC, and the rest could barely bring themselves to mention that Trump had just delivered the first major Middle East peace deal in a generation. Instead of asking how he did it, they acted like he’d been disqualified from a talent show. It’s almost poetic—every time Trump proves the establishment wrong, they prove him right.
True Leaders Don’t Chase Medals, They Save Lives
Trump told reporters, “I didn’t do it for that. I did it because I saved a lot of lives.” That single sentence says more about leadership than any golden medal could. Real peace doesn’t come from committees or ceremonies—it comes from action, pressure, and results. The Nobel Committee can keep its speeches. The rest of the world is finally seeing what peace through strength actually looks like.
History Will Get the Last Word
Someday, long after the media have moved on to their next outrage cycle, historians will look back at this moment and see what really happened: a president who made peace while others made excuses. Whether Trump ever holds that shiny medal or not, his record already glitters brighter. Because in the end, the Nobel can name its winners—but history names its heroes.

The perfect line, “Because in the end, the Nobel can name its winners—but history names its heroes.” — The Nobel Peace Prize has become a joke, or at best a broken, tarnished trinket of no use and of no meaning.
P.S. Didn’t 70 Monks break their silence to nominate Trunk for the Peace Prize as well!
The Nobel Peace Prize hasn’t been worth a shit since their dickhead committee gave it to Brack Insane Ohomo!
The Nobel Prize reflects on the people that gave the prize not on the actual accomplishments of the recipient. They gave a Nobel Prize to Obama just for winning an election. The Nobel Prize is not given to people according to the original intentions of those who created it. It has become a political tool that the elites confer to individuals that have some similarity to the way the “Committee” sees the world. Trump doesn’t give inspiring speeches with poetic words. They will always find someone other than Trump. He doesn’t need the Noble Prize. He is the real thing.
Alfred Nobel Peace Prize:
For consistent efforts in favor of:
1 Human values
2 Anti-Militarism and Principle of Law
3 Vision of peace and Fraternity between Nations.
President Donald J. Trump checks off on all (8 times over) why he should have gotten the Peace Prize but Trump didn’t do it for that however, it would have been fair for the committee to give recognition to him but then again Alfred would be rolling in his grave if he saw what they have done to his award. The world is Thanking President Trump and that is better than a trinket metal that doesn’t even live up to its own standards anymore.
The Nobel Committee did it again. They gave it to someone who wants to do something, but didn’t do it yet. Just like Obama got it for that same reason. What ever happened to the rutes where the winner is supposed to have ACCOMPLISH SOMETHING, not what they plan to do. You kinda knew this was gonna happen to Trump, TDS is even in the Nobel Committee.
i don’t think that anybody deserves the Nobel Peace price more than President Trump and Maria Corina Machado should not accept it, period!!!!!
Let’s be honest, Obama got the award for being black, nothing else. The Nobel committee is a joke and they have tarnished the prize to nothing more then a popularity contest. If Trump ends up getting the “prize” next year, he should just melt it down and donate the value of it to a homeless shelter.
Hussein is milato, but you’re correct, he LOOKED black enough to check a box. Although, they had to play down his Middle Eastern sounding name.
Barrack Hussein. SMH
His draw was his radical Islam upbringing and social work while neglecting his sworn duties as a Senator and redistributing wealth.
Most damaging, “president”, EVER!
President Trump wasn’t eligible having missed the November, 2024 deadline.
Get a grip, people.
There’s one or five more important things to think about, right now.
No, Epstein is NOT one of the most important things.
“Peace does not need a trophy” was in the article title. Especially a participation trophy.
