Trump Asks Norwegian Finance Minister About His Nobel Peace Prize Chances
15th August 2025
President Donald Trump brought up his prospects of winning a Nobel Peace Prize last month in a phone call to Jens Stoltenberg, Norway’s finance minister.
The call reportedly came as Stoltenberg was walking in Oslo and included other U.S. officials. While tariff discussions dominated, Trump brought up the Nobel during the exchange.
“It is true that President Trump called me a few days before his conversation with Prime Minister [Jonas Gahr] Støre. Several of the president’s staff members also participated in the conversation, including Treasury Secretary [Scott] Bessent and Trade Representative [Jamieson] Greer,” Stoltenberg, the former NATO secretary-general, told Politico.
Ah Ah Ah Ah Yankin’ their chains, yankin’ their chains….
It must be fun to be Trump, to be able to wake up in the morning and ask himself “Who on the Left’s day can I ruin with just a phone call?” and then actually do it. No wonder he’s smiling all the time.
Rather like being Andrew Tate, but with more money and influence.
