He got elected and they gave it to Obama for doing absolutely nothing, but destroying our country.” Trump went on to claim that Obama was “not a good president,” and then added that the “worst president was Sleepy Joe Biden.” Former President Barack Obama and President Donald Trump.During Friday’s broadcast of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Kimmel aired a montage of clips showing Trump repeating his criticism of Obama’s win. He then riffed on Trump’s not-so-subtle “campaigning” for the award — and discussed a recent headline from Norway, where officials were reportedly bracing for backlash from Trump.“Norway braces for Trump’s reaction if he does not win the Nobel Peace Prize,” Kimmel read. “That’s not a headline from ‘The Onion,’ that’s real. The government of Norway is scared he might punish them — that he might declare them an enemy for not giving him the Nobel Peace Prize.”When Machado was informed of her win, the Venezuelan politician had an emotional and gracious response. “Oh my God. Well, I have no words,” Machado said during the call with Kristian Berg Harpviken, director of the Norwegian Nobel Institute. “Thank you so much, but I hope you understand that this is a movement — an achievement of the whole society. I am just one person. I certainly do not deserve this.”
