While appearing at the UN, Trump speculated on why he had not been awarded a Nobel Prize.
“I would get a Nobel prize for a lot of things, if they give it out fairly, which they don’t,” Trump said.
And what prompted him to say this? You know; you just think you don't.
“They gave one to Obama immediately upon his ascent to the presidency and he had no idea why he got it.”
True; but we all know why you won't get one. Hint: it doesn't come with the Presidency.
Interestingly, in light of recent reports about cleaning up Trump's mangling of the language, the correct quote seems to be this:
"I think I'm going to get a Nobel Prize for a lot of things, if they gave it out fairly, which they don't" -- President Trump at UNGA.— Philip Rucker (@PhilipRucker) September 23, 2019
Which is definitely a horse of a different color. Trump starts the sentence in one direction, then backs the truck over it in the end, all to state, simultaneously, how great he is, and what a victim of the world he is.
