After months of public drama, including the bizarre moment when he accepted a medal from Maria Machado, Trump now insists he never really wanted the award.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"371\" data-end=\"678\">Speaking to reporters, he said he doesn\u2019t care about the prize. He praised Machado for thinking he deserved it, but stressed that Norway \u201ccontrols\u201d the Nobel Prize and that he isn\u2019t concerned with their opinion. Instead, he claims his focus is on saving lives, boasting that he has saved tens of millions.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"371\" data-end=\"678\">\n<h2 data-start=\"680\" data-end=\"710\">Trump\u2019s denial sparks controversies<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"712\" data-end=\"951\">For someone who supposedly \u201cdoesn\u2019t care,\u201d Trump\u2019s words reveal deep frustration. He repeatedly questions how the prize is awarded and appears to hold a grudge against the Norwegian government, even though they do not select the winners.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"953\" data-end=\"1231\">He also wrote a personal letter to Norway at the height of the controversy, signaling that he clearly did care enough to act on it. Observers note the irony: Trump, denied a peace prize, seems motivated to create chaos instead, even threatening actions that could harm allies.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1265\" data-end=\"1539\">Trump\u2019s latest stance highlights a disconnect between his words and actions. While claiming disinterest, his behavior has drawn international attention and criticism. Many see it as another example of public posturing that undermines the United States\u2019 credibility abroad.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1541\" data-end=\"1770\">Some critics even suggest that the Nobel Committee might consider creating a special, tongue-in-cheek award just for Trump. After all, few politicians have generated so much global spectacle over a prize they claim not to want.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1772\" data-end=\"1947\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">In the end, Trump\u2019s \u201cI don\u2019t care\u201d declaration may say more about his ego than about peace. His own contradictions are now part of a growing saga of international humiliation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald Trump has a long history of contradicting himself, but his latest statements about the Nobel Peace Prize may take\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":294,"featured_media":105698,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16,186],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-105697","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics","category-world"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105697","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/294"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=105697"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105697\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/105698"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=105697"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=105697"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=105697"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
