WASHINGTON, D.C. — Even one of the most revered institutions in the world found out that it was not immune to being trolled by the leader of the free world, as President Donald Trump retaliated for his peace prize snub with a picture of the Nobel Committee wearing sombreros.
According to inside sources, Trump decided to respond to the Nobel snub by using the same method that had worked so well last week against congressional Democrats in the wake of the government shutdown, posting a photoshopped image of the esteemed committee wearing traditional Mexican hats.
"When you snub someone so badly, you deserve to become a meme," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office after posting the image on his Truth Social account. "Look at the picture. All sombreros. We love the sombreros, don't we folks? Mexican hats. They've got those huge brims. I've heard they can fill the brims with tortilla chips, but I don't know if that's true. Maybe it is. Wonderful people, the Mexicans. Much better than the people on the Nobel Committee, believe me."
When asked about the post, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed that the same fate could befall anyone else who defies the president. "Let this be an example to the rest of the world," she said. "President Trump will not sit idly by and be disrespected. Those who choose to disrespect his achievements will be subject to sombrero memes."
At publishing time, Turning Point USA had announced that it would be awarding an alternative Nobel Peace Prize to President Trump.

I think kufiyahs would’ve been more appropriate.
Wouldn’t be surprised if Trump posts this on his Truth page.
I wish he’d focus on making America great.
I don’t think he’s the guy actually doing the photoshopping. I did see a video of him dictating a Truth Social post to one of his assistants during the campaign so I kinda do think those come from him, but he doesn’t type them. It was basically “down time”. Meaning, he was at some event, but waiting for his turn or for other speech makers to finish their words ... so he’s not one to waste time. At 2 am, there aren’t many people around to give orders to. Trump is a dynamo and if he gets some kicks out of this during those few moments or hours where he really can’t get much else done, so be it.
I think the sombrero pictures were the best troll of the year and calling it offensive is insulting an entire nation. The Dems don’t think things out.
Why is it revered? Who in the heck do these Nobel people think they are?
Wasn’t the award for work done up to January 31, 2025?
Looks like the Baja Marimba Band except the guy who always had his back turned while peeing is missing.
Trump shouldn’t care. Awards from the world aren’t necessary. In fact they prove whoever gets them isnt on oir side, they almost always go to enemies of people and freedom and God.
Lol, the Bee absolutely nails Trump’s tone and mannerism. So funny! It’s sounds exactly like something he would say. 🤣
I know I I really did LOL when I read it . I really could hear him saying that 🤣
