'He's Gonna Have A Meltdown': Internet Reacts After Donald Trump Fails To Win Nobel Peace Prize

President Donald Trump reads a note handed to him by Secretary of State Marco Rubio telling him a peace deal in Gaza was close to being agreed.Donald Trump has been passed over for this year’s Nobel Peace Prize, despite mounting a not-so-subtle campaign to receive it.Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado was given the award by the Nobel committee on Friday.In a post on X, the Nobel organisers said: “Democracy is a precondition for lasting peace. However, we live in a world where democracy is in retreat, where more and more authoritarian regimes are challenging norms and resorting to violence.“Maria Corina Machado has spent years working for the freedom of the Venezuelan people. The Venezuelan regime’s rigid hold on power and its repression of the population are not unique in the world. We see the same trends globally: rule of law abused by those in control, free media silenced, critics imprisoned, and societies pushed towards authoritarian rule and militarisation.“In 2024, more elections were held than ever before, but fewer and fewer are free and fair.”Their remarks have been interpreted by some as an indirect criticism of Trump, who has been accused of authoritarianism over his legal pursuit of his political enemies.While the world waits for Trump’s own reaction to being snubbed, the internet reacted as you’d expect.The announcement came a day after Israel and Hamas agreed to Trump’s peace plan for Gaza, which led to increased speculation that the US president could scoop the prize.However, that was never a real possibility as nominations to the Nobel committee closed on January 31, just days after Trump returned to the White House.Nevertheless, it is understood he was among the nominees for his work on the Abraham Accords, which normalised relations between Israel and Arab states, during his first term in office.Trump also thought he was in with a chance, saying on Thursday: “I don’t know what they’re going to do, really. But I know this, that nobody in history has solved eight wars in a period of nine months.”Asked about Trump’s campaigning following the announcement, Juergen Warne Frydnes of the Nobel Committee said: “In the long history of the Nobel Peace Prize I think this committee has seen any type of campaign, media attention and we receive thousands of letters every year, from people wanting to say what to them means peace.“This committee sits in a room filled with the portraits of all laureates and that room is filled with courage and integrity. We base our decision only on the work and the will of Alfred Nobel.”Democracy is a precondition for lasting peace. However, we live in a world where democracy is in retreat, where more and more authoritarian regimes are challenging norms and resorting to violence.Maria Corina Machado – awarded the 2025 #NobelPeacePrize – has spent years working… pic.twitter.com/URtYv9uBfV— The Nobel Prize (@NobelPrize) October 10, 2025DONALD TRUMP HASN’T WON THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE IT WENT TO A WOMAN pic.twitter.com/ybB4RWc6jG— Deceased but Opinionated✨ (@JustSomeRemains) October 10, 2025There is KARMA The orange buffoon will lose what’s left of his diseased, corrupt, fascist mind!
