Whoa.
First of all journalists don’t get “Nobles” or even Nobels. There is no Nobel Prize for journalism. Second, spelling. Third…everything. Saying that out loud, and not just out loud but on Twitter. Acting like a spoiled toddler with a toothache out in public where we can all see you. Fourth – you do realize you’re telling us all it upsets you that nobody gives you a Noble prize for journalism? And that that looks kind of stupid coming from a head of state? In short that we’re all going to laugh at you? That all you’re doing is humiliating yourself? That we’re laughing at you (at the same time as we very seriously want you out of that office immediately before you do more damage)?
Three hours those have been sitting there, not even taken down to fix the spelling as someone did this morning. I guess the staff have given up.
Give him his blanky and put him to bed. Strap him in.
Updating to add: they did get taken down so I’ll add the screenshots.

Not a blanky. A binky.
Obama won the Nobel Peace prize, has two Grammys, and 14 honorary doctorates.
Trump is in the WWE Hall of Fame, has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, woo hoo!
There is no comparison here, Trump is a clown and a dipshit.
And I guess the Senate Report must also be part of the lamestream media hoax, finding that Russia, Russia, Russia, interfered on behalf of DJT.
Didn’t Trump’s star on the Hollywood walk get taken away?
But look on the bright side. Things could be worse. The office of POTUS could be filled by someone with less self-awareness, less charm and less modesty; and that’s just for starters.
I want Trump to win the Darwin Award, that one would mean something. :P
Now he’s tweeting “Noble” was also sarcasm, and nobody got it. Where does he get this shit? Too busy reading bad press about him, no time for actual research, only toilet tweeting.
(There is an actual Noble prize for engineering, but not for journalism by any stretch.)
Oh you know where he gets this shit. Same place he wants doctors to shine the light up.
Someone should ask him exactly which reporters he believes have won “Noble Prizes” for their stories on Russia, Russia, Russia? And as he’s saying “all”, he must mean more than two. Follow-up question would be whether they were joint prizes, or if reporters writing about Russia, Russia, Russia have won Nobles in more than one year?
Of course just like they’ve bought up all the hydroxychloroquine they can get their hands on, and are ready to start doing Lysoll shots, some of Trump’s followers will now believe there actually IS a Nobel Prize for journalism simply because he said there was.

If he’s now claiming it was sarcasm, is that a tacit admission that it was his side that comitted the crimes?
For sure, Trump should have a good chance at winning an Ig Nobel Prize?
I’m looking around for candidates to meet this, and outside of Sean Hannity, who really isn’t worse than Trump on these counts, I’m hard pressed. I suppose I could draft my brother…he fits the bill. But no one knows who he is. (Except me, unfortunately.)
But you do understand, right Omar? Trump is the bestest an no self-awareness. He is the bestest at charmless. He is the bestest at vanity. And, of course, bestest at their opposite, because he is the bestest at everything.
I suppose in his defense you could say that he meant “Pulitzer Prize”. But on the other hand not knowing the difference between the Pulitzers and the Nobels ought to disqualify a person from the presidency.
But this is America, right? I mean, it’s not like he confused the Super Bowl and the World Series, or asked for Swiss cheese on his Philly cheesesteak.
I’m noticing an increasing number of “sarcastic” comments by Trump. It used to be “jokes” but somebody in the press office realized that jokes during a pandemic looks bad so switched it to sarcasm instead. It works for some things like this “Noble” prize business (although we all know he just fucked up) but as an explanation for the disinfectant debacle, it doesn’t even make sense.
I don’t know if it is my imagination or real but I feel like the number of stupid statements and mistakes are more frequent and have to be dismissed as sarcasm. Is it just the extra exposure or is it a sign of the increasing rate of cognitive decline?
I also think nobody in the White House would recognize sarcasm if it jumped up and punched them on the nose.
I do think the rate of cognitive decline is increasing. I can’t spell out exactly why I think that, but I just think it’s coming in more rapidly and it’s getting steadily more grotesque. But maybe that’s job stress rather than brain rot…
I think there is some cognitive decline. Trump is a quick thinker but his narcissism keeps him ignorant. But I do think the recent stress is really getting to him. If there is a silver lining its the fact that he probably hates everything about his job right now. He used to be king and now he is king of a world on fire.
