I saw this.

Reporter: “Do you deserve the Nobel Prize, do you think?”

Trump: “Everyone thinks so, but I would never say it.”

I thought “Really?? He said that?!” I looked it up. He said that.

Trump was asked by a reporter at the White House if he’s deserving of the prize after news broke Wednesday that three American men who had been imprisoned by North Korea were on their way home to the United States.

“Everyone thinks so, but I would never say it,” said Trump, who is preparing to meet face-to-face with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in coming weeks, as part of a bid to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula.

“You know what I want to do?” Trump said to reporters. “I want to get it finished. The prize I want is victory for the world — not for even here — I want victory for the world. Because that’s what we’re talking about, so that’s the only prize I want.”

Well, apart from all the millions and millions of dollars, of course.
