5. I stopped giving a shit about the Nobel Peace Prize when Kissinger won it.

The only Republican stupid enough to care is of course Trump himself.

true gentleman would have said "Thank you, but you won that award." His greed is unfathomable.

BTW, the medal does have some gold in it: Before 1980 the Nobel Prize medal was made from 23 carat gold. Newer Nobel Prize medals are 18 carat green gold plated with 24 carat gold. Green gold, also known as electrum, is an alloy of gold and silver, with trace amounts of copper.

But he should be ashamed every time he looks at his unearned "prize."
