    Firstly, Greenland is part of Denmark, not Norway. Not the same thing.

    Secondly, I might be wrong but I don’t think the Norwegian government gives the Nobel prizes, an organization based in Norway does

    Thirdly, how deranged does someone have to be to threaten war over not getting a peace prize?

      Correct. The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded by The Norwegian Nobel Commitee, not the government. The committee consists of members appointed by the Norwegian Parliament – again, not the goverment. The commitee thus a private body, and the government has absolutely no say in their selection of the recipient.

        Just shows how fundamentally ingrained it is in Trump’s head that he thinks he’s King and can dictate what everyone in his country does. He does not understand that any government doesn’t have that power.

      He’s terrorizing Minnesota because the population votes for the opposing party. The madness with the Orange knows no bounds.

        also because walz stepped down from running for the gov, because hes too non-confrontational. the right wingers are trying to spin up the propaganda so that an R can take MINNESOTA, kristi noem even had to say it burned down a couple times to keep the lie going on CBS.

            i think its mainly sound bites for fox, and the other right wing propaganda sources like newsmax , and OAN. remember nyc and california hellhole , its to reinforce the magats consumption that these states are burning down. all the southern states are doing significantly more ICE raids and deportation but MSM isnt reporting it.

            its to distract from epstein and the BBB

      gestures broadly this deranged. It’s all excuses. Dictators don’t need reasons they just act.
