Trump rips Obama’s Nobel Prize, he got it ‘for destroying our country’

President Donald Trump took time out from his Oval Office question-and-answer session with the President of Finland on Thursday to bash his predecessors, especially Nobel Peace Prize winner Barack Obama, APA reports citing Yahoo News.

One reporter asked Trump about his planned trip to Walter Reed Medical Center on Friday.

“I am meeting with the troops, and I’m also going to do a semi-annual physical, which I do, and I think I’m in great shape, but I will let you know. I have no difficulty thus far. Is there wood around here? I will knock on it,” Trump said to laughs from the press pool.

Another reporter asked about Obama getting the Nobel Peace Prize.

“He got it for doing nothing,” Trump declared. “Obama got a prize — he didn’t even know what — he got elected and they gave it to Obama for doing absolutely nothing but destroying our country. No, he was not a good president. The worst president was ‘Sleepy Joe Biden.’ But, Obama was not a good president. How many months after he won the election and then he given the peace prize? My election was a much more important election.”
