“President Trump will continue to make peace deals, end wars, and save human lives. He has the heart of a humanitarian, and there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains by sheer force of will,” declared White House Communications Director Steven Cheung, responding to the fact that U.S. President Donald Trump did not receive the Nobel Peace Prize.
Trump did not receive the Nobel Peace Prize
The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Maria Corina Machado of Venezuela. Machado received the honor “for her tireless work to promote democratic rights for the Venezuelan people and her fight for a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.“
Although media speculation suggested that the award might go to Donald Trump, the former U.S. president ultimately did not receive it. White House Communications Director Steven Cheung issued a strong response to the Nobel Committee’s decision on the X platform.
“President Trump will continue to make peace deals, end wars, and save human lives. He has the heart of a humanitarian, and there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains by sheer force of will,“ he wrote.
He added that, in his opinion, “the Nobel Committee has proven that it values politics over peace.“
Former President Donald Trump has not yet commented on the Nobel Committee’s decision, though he has repeatedly stated publicly that he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. The nomination of Maria Corina Machado for the award was supported last year by current U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and several other Republican Party politicians.
President Trump will continue making peace deals, ending wars, and saving lives.
