Trump in bizarre sweary rant against Norway after Nobel Peace Prize snub

Donald Trump has hit out at Norway in another sweary rant after his Nobel Prize snub.The US President told a political rally in Port Huron, Michigan, on Sunday that immigrants from Norway are not welcome in the United States, days before next week's midterm elections.The US President escalated his invective against the Scandinavian country, calling it a "s**t house country" and complaining that the Nobel committee, based in the capital Oslo, has not awarded him a Peace Prize.President Trump has long coveted the prize and made no secret of his aspiration to win it. He has previously heaped pressure on the committee to give him the prestigious accolade.Attributing recent unrest in France to immigration, Trump said he would welcome immigrants from some countries but not from Norway "because ‌I didn't get the Nobel Prize ... So I don't want anybody from Norway.""Norway has become a s**t house country, actually," Trump said, using a term that he has previously applied to Haiti, Libya, Somalia and Yemen.There was no indication that the Trump administration was adopting new official policy on Norwegian immigrants.President Donald Trump arrives on stage to deliver remarks during an election rally at McMorran Place (Getty)Trump earlier previously called the failure to give him a Nobel Peace Prize an "indelible stain" on Norway.Earlier this month Former UN human rights chief Navi Pillay took a swipe at Donald Trump after winning the prize , joking that she would offer to share it with him.The South African judge and legal expert was awarded the prize for being “instrumental in ensuring war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide are prosecuted”, according to Nobel committee chair Jørgen Watne Frydnes.At the Nuremberg court where Pillay was attending an academic and legal conference, she addressed attendees and made a joke at Mr Trump’s expense. Walking into a room of applause, she said: “If you clap a little bit more, I may share this prize with Trump.”Norway is among the highest-income countries as measured by GDP per capita, according to International Monetary Fund data.The country's sovereign wealth fund posted a record profit of 1.75 trillion Norwegian crowns ($184.3 billion) for the first half of 2026.
