**Donald Trump Still Raging Over Nobel Peace Prize Snub**
Donald Trump appears to remain fixated on not winning the Nobel Peace Prize. An embarrassing hot mic moment recently captured the former president whining about not being given “credit” for his peacemaking efforts to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
The rant was overheard during a bilateral meeting with Netanyahu at Mar-a-Lago, where the two discussed the second phase of the Gaza-Israel ceasefire agreement.
Despite the critical diplomatic issues at hand, Trump, 79, seemed more focused on airing grievances over the Nobel Prize selection process. A video shared on social media captured him complaining about being passed over by the Nobel Committee, which awarded this year’s honor to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado.
In the footage, Trump is seated across from Netanyahu at a long table flanked by government officials. He is heard saying,
*”But to both of them, I said, ‘We’re gonna cut you off. No more trade,’ then I put 200 percent tariffs on (and) the next day they called.”*
Then, clearly annoyed, Trump snapped,
*”35 years of fighting, and they, uh, stopped. Do I get credit for it? No.”*
The awkward moment continued as Trump raised his voice, drowning out Netanyahu’s apparent attempt to interject while repeating his baseless claim about ending eight wars.
**“I Did 8 of Them”**
“They gave the Nob— I did 8 of them. How about India and Pakistan?” Trump said while looking at various individuals seated around the table.
“So I did 8 of them… and then I’ll tell you the rest of it.”
Suddenly seeming to remember the cameras in the room, Trump shifted his attention away from Netanyahu and addressed the press, asking how they were doing. He quickly changed the subject by boasting about progress on the Gaza-Israel ceasefire deal.
**Backlash on Social Media**
Social media users reacted strongly, mocking Trump for acting like a self-centered “child.”
One X user wrote, *”When your foreign policy is just a highlight reel in your own head. It’s not peace, it’s narcissism with selective memory.”*
Another user added, *”He’s a child. An evil, corrupt, stupid, lazy, narcissistic child.”*
Dozens more ridiculed Trump for continuing to praise himself over “imaginary achievements.”
*”Counting imaginary achievements like baseball stats, 8 imaginary wars, zero results,”* a commenter noted.
Another remarked,
*”People with class don’t whine and demand prizes. If they are worthy, recognition may come; there are no guarantees. Trump has no class. He will never have any class.”*
**The Nobel Peace Prize Controversy**
As previously reported by Radar, it’s no secret Trump is upset over losing the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize to María Corina Machado. He shamelessly campaigned for the award, prompting the committee to subtly dismiss his bid when announcing this year’s winner.
After Trump warned it would be a “big insult” if he did not win the Nobel Peace Prize for helping broker the Gaza-Israel ceasefire agreement, the committee chairman clarified that the prize is given to those who exemplify *“courage and integrity.”*
The chairman went on to explain that Machado was selected *“for her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.”*
