During a phone call, Donald Trump hinted to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi that he should nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize, as Pakistan had done. Modi sharply rejected the idea, stating that the ceasefire with Islamabad was achieved without U.S. involvement.
This refusal marked a turning point in relations: Washington imposed 50% tariffs on Indian goods, while in India, Trump was openly called a "traitor" and his effigy was burned at a festival. - NYT

if Obama made a clip basically rubbing it in, addressing Trump directly maybe with his Nobel award on his desk and saying it’s never going to happen you can’t make Fetch happen Shitler might just have a final heart attack or rupture an anneurism. Obama needs to speak out bc he is cryptonite for him

Do you have a link for that quote? What article does it state the effigy was burned? Maybe it's in a different article, but you provided no link, and that's not in this recent article that's all about the Modi-trump relationship...

Trump is such a shitty human that he isn't capable of doing the actions that would earn him praise or positive recognition. He has to beg or bargain for it and he's not even good at that.

The Nobel Peace Prize Committee seriously needs to tell Trump that if Putin or Nethanyahu sends them a nomination, that nomination goes straight into the bin, because they are both terrible people, and the name of the person they nominated goes on the list of people who will not be considered.

Unfuckingbelievable.

Modi is Russian ally plus Fascist like Trump..let these two eat each other

In its childish simplicity, Obama got a Nobel, so Mango Mussolini wants one desperately.

Yes

Yeah and now Modi is attending an SOC conference with Xi and Putin in China. 43% of the world's population resides in the 11 SOC Nations. Trump has alienated our allies while driving our collective enemies into a coalition. The United States has no credible foreign policy.

Heh heh

Kate, living through war, but still taking the time to bring us (the unbombed) feel-good stories to get us through our day. The poetry of the inconceivable madness of the world occasionally does have a funny twist, through all the depravity. Thanks for bringing this to my attention Kate. Lovely read

Trump couldn’t care less about peace, he’s only about himself. Narcissistic senile ignoramous

@washingtonpost.com claims Trump's punitive tariffs - taxation levied unconstitutionally outside of Congressional action - were because India bought Russian oil.
Any tariffs on Russia? I remember only the red carpet treatment for Putin.

How much attention from the Traitor-in-chief would I receive from burning him in effigy?

I would go to that effigy party
