      Airport security would detect that. Radio-isotope poisoning is a favorite of the Russians, I’m sure the White house has multiple layers of detection set up for exactly that kind of thing.

    I honestly don’t know how the Onion is going to beat this.

    Heck, I don’t know if future students of history are actually going to be able to believe the history books about this decade, should they be written with any sort of accuracy… Reality’s jumped the shark.

      Of course they will. Political leaders in the past have done many many bizarre things.

        Oh, I know, but most of the time they’re remembered for only one or two things. I have no idea how the history books are going to handle the shear number of unhinged things Trump and co have done.

    This is more pathetic than getting sports trophies off of Freecycle and claiming you “won” all of them. What a pedophile loser!

    It means nothing because it can’t be given to anyone other than whose won it. Like you can’t give the medal of freedom to Oscar the Grouch.

    JFC, how pathetic this guy is.

    That’s not how medals work, asshole.

    Who would have thought a guy practically in the Silent Generation would have pined for a participation trophy? Such a loser.

      Not even a participation trophy. I have recieved exactly 1 trophy in my life. It was a 1992 participation trophy for playing 1st grade basketball as mandated by the school.

      But I DID play the season of basketball. I DID participste.

      Show me where trump has participated in acts that promote peace.

          There’s 195 countries in the world and we’re engaged in like 7 different wars so that’s 188 wars that Trump has prevented by not randomly deciding to attack them /s

      Say what you will about participation awards, but at least their recipients actually participated in the activity in question. I don’t know what this is.

          Exactly. The prize itself is a joke even before this colossal self-own.

        I theorize he is trying to get into heaven (???) and he might believe that the only thing that could cancel out all his sins is to become the Nobel Peace Prize winner (???) through violence (???)

        None of this makes any sense if you don’t have severe dementia.
