Donald Trump blasted Barack Obama this week in a furious White House tirade for “doing nothing” to earn the Nobel Peace Prize he received in 2009.
The Republican president’s predecessor received the highest honor “for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples,” in case anyone needed a reminder.
More precisely, Obama was recognized for his proposal to remove American forces from Iraq, his appeal for new ties between the West and the Muslim world, and his vision of a future free of nuclear weapons.
However, it appears that Trump still objects to the organizers’ selection of Obama for the esteemed award nearly two decades later.
The 79-year-old criticized the 44th president’s accomplishments during a press conference held in the Oval Office yesterday (9 October), where he also talked about his own quest for the same award.
“He got it for doing nothing,” Trump spat of the former Democrat leader, specifically referencing the fact he was controlled the accolade just weeks into his term.
“Obama got a prize – he didn’t even know what – he got elected, and they gave it to Obama for doing absolutely nothing but destroying our country.”
