Donald Trump has finally won a peace prize – from Fifa, no less. Here are five other awards he should win | Arwa Mahdawi

Trump's Peace Prize: A Joke That Falls Flat?

In a bizarre move, the International Federation of Football Associations (FIFA) has awarded Donald Trump its inaugural peace prize. While this may be seen as an opportunity for the former US president to bask in the glory of international recognition, it's difficult to take seriously given his track record on conflict and human rights.

The award is, of course, a PR stunt designed to flatter Trump's ego. FIFA's strategy is likely to start a trend of organizations and corporations giving out extravagant awards to the former president in an effort to curry favor with him. It's hard not to see this as a cynical attempt to distract from his numerous missteps on the world stage.

So, why not try to get creative? Here are five alternative awards that might be more deserving of Trump's attention:

The Volkswagen Golf Award: Given Trump's strained relationship with Germany and its automotive industry, it's fitting that the former president receives an award that acknowledges his disdain for German cars. A golf tournament sponsored by Volkswagen could be a good starting point.

The Big Cheese Trophy for Making America Grate Again: Trump's comments about France have been well-documented, and it's time to butter him up with a dairy-themed accolade. The Trump administration's attempts to make the US "grate" again are laughable, but at least he'll feel special.

The Humpty Dumpty Prize for Eggcellence in the American Language: Trump is known for his verbal gymnastics, and this award would be an apt recognition of his linguistic skills. After all, who else could coin phrases like "truthful hyperbole" and brew up words like "covfefe"?

The Energizer Bunny Trophy for Battery Conservation: As the oldest US president ever inaugurated, Trump is certainly bursting with energy – particularly when it comes to sharing his thoughts on social media. An award acknowledging his boundless enthusiasm would be a fitting tribute.

The American Gas Association Award for Lighting the Way: Ultimately, no earthly award does justice to Trump's... let's say, unique perspective on the world. He truly believes he is marching humanity into a new golden age – and this award would be a suitable accompaniment to that grandiose vision.

In conclusion, while FIFA's peace prize may be seen as an opportunity for Trump to bask in international recognition, it's hard not to view it as a cynical PR stunt. Perhaps these alternative awards will provide some much-needed levity in the ongoing saga of Donald Trump's public persona.
 
come on, what's with FIFA giving trump a peace prize lol 😂, like, can't they see he's all about conflict and drama? 🤯 i think it's actually a pretty clever idea to poke fun at him with some wacky awards, though! 🎉 like the big cheese trophy for making america grate again (omg, love that one) or the energizer bunny trophy for battery conservation - trump would totally take that one to heart 💁‍♀️
 
I'm not buying this whole thing 😒... I mean, come on, a peace prize from FIFA? It's gotta be some kind of joke. I get that Trump's got a lot of fans out there who'd jump at the chance to see him basking in all that glory, but let's be real here 🤣... he's got a whole track record of being super divisive and causing conflict wherever he goes.

And yeah, it's probably just gonna be some PR stunt to get him to shut up for a bit. I mean, can you imagine the looks on everyone's faces when they hand over that award? Priceless 😂. But seriously, what's next? Is this gonna start a trend of giving out awards to anyone who's willing to shell out some cash?

Now, those alternative awards I saw were pretty funny though 🤣... like, The Big Cheese Trophy for Making America Grate Again? Classic Trump move right there. And the Energizer Bunny Trophy for Battery Conservation? That one cracks me up too 😂. I think we've got a winner in Trump's world - whoever can come up with the most creative (or ridiculous) award wins out!
 
I'm all about this 🤣! Did you know that in 2022, Trump's approval ratings were at an all-time low? Like, 22% of Americans actually thought he was doing a good job! 😂 But seriously, have you seen the charts on his social media usage? He averages over 5 hours of tweeting per day! 📊 That's like, 12 times the daily average for world leaders. It's hard to take him seriously when he's got an entire team just curating his tweets. 🤦‍♂️ And don't even get me started on his "covfefe" incident - that was a whole 3 years ago and still getting memes! 😂
 
I mean come on, a peace prize from FIFA? Are they serious? 🤔 I think it's a total joke that falls flat. Trump's track record on conflict and human rights is pretty shaky at best. It's like, what's next? Giving him an award for being loud on Twitter? 🚫 The fact that they're trying to curry favor with him by giving out extravagant awards is just sad. Can't they come up with something original instead of going with some PR stunt? Like, have you seen the alternative awards suggested? The Volkswagen Golf Award? More like the Trump Golf Fail Award 🏌️‍♂️! And what's with the Big Cheese Trophy? Trump's ego is already big enough without us rubbing it in his face. 😒
 
Can't believe FIFA actually gave out that peace prize 🤦‍♂️... like, what's next? Giving it to Putin for being good at nuclear negotiations 😂. This whole thing feels like a PR disaster – a total joke 🎉. Trump's track record on human rights is pretty checkered, you know 🚫. Instead of the peace prize, they should've gone with one of these wacky alternative awards 🤣... like, the "America Grate Again" award would be hilarious 😂. Or maybe a trophy for "making America grumpy again" 👎. Seriously though, it's time to put the spotlight on some real humanitarians – not just politicians who are more interested in tweeting about their own ego 💁‍♂️ #FIFAPRDisaster #TrumpPeacePrizeFail #AlternativeAwardsForTheWin
 
lol what is going on with this FIFA peace prize lol 😂 they're basically giving trump a participation trophy after all his controversy and conflicts he had during his term 🤦‍♂️ at least these alternative awards are funny, like the Big Cheese Trophy for Making America Grate Again that would be rich 💀 or the Energizer Bunny Trophy for Battery Conservation he's always going on about how energetic he is, it would be ironic 😆
 
omg can you believe this?! 🤯 like, what even is a peace prize for trump? isn't he known for all the drama and conflicts he's caused on the world stage? 🙄 i think it's just a joke that falls flat - nobody takes him seriously anymore.

i love the alternative awards tho 😂 like the big cheese trophy for making america grate again or the humpty dumpty prize for eggcellence in the american language. that's some next level humor right there 🤣. but honestly, whoever comes up with these ideas should just give trump an award for being a master of self-promotion instead 🏆

and can we talk about how this is just a PR stunt to distract from all his other controversies? like, no way is fifa actually serious about giving out peace prizes to world leaders who are known for causing chaos. it's gotta be some kind of clever marketing ploy or something 🤑.
 
come on... a peace prize for trump? 🙄 that's just rich. i mean what has he actually done for world peace? did he broker any deals or resolve any conflicts? didn't think so. it's all about him and his ego, trying to get attention no matter the cost. i love the alternative awards tho! the big cheese trophy is a good one - it's like he's been buttering himself up with that fake american patriotism for years 🧀
 
idk how u can take this seriously - trump gets peace prize from fifa lol what r they even thinking? 🤦‍♂️ he's gotta be jokin' his track record on conflict & human rights is a joke, plain & simple. but come on who awards him peace prize now? seems like total PR stunt to me... maybe rite these alternative ones tho - volkswagen golf award sounds pretty fitting considering how much drama there was between them 🚗 big cheese trophy for makin america grate again lololol what's next? gotta butter trump up with dairy-themed accolade. humpty dumpty prize for eggcellence in american language sounds like perfect fit too given his vocab skills or lack thereof 😂
 
omg cant believe fifa gave trump peace prize lol what kinda joke is that?? like seriously who do they think he is?? i mean ive seen more sincere stuff from a kids birthday party 🎉 and yeah its def a pr stunt to get him all happy and whatnot. but like honestly how bout a trophy for most epic troll of the century or something?? thx fifa for making trump's ego even bigger 🤣
 
omg can u believe this?? 🤯 they just gave trump a peace prize lol like what even is that? i mean i know he's got a history of controversy but this is just ridiculous. i think its more likely a ploy to get him to shut up about his own stuff rather than actually promoting peace or anything good. and why not come up with some weird awards for him instead? 🤷‍♀️ the volkswagen golf award is pretty funny tho, idk who gives out prizes now but i guess trump gets one anyway 😂
 
I'm totally baffled by this FIFA peace prize thing 😂. I mean, have they lost all sense of what 'peace' even means? Give me a break! 🙄 It's just gonna be a PR stunt to stroke Trump's ego and make him feel like a big shot. Newsflash: it's not gonna fly. And the alternative awards they came up with are actually pretty funny (especially the Big Cheese Trophy for Making America Grate Again 🤣). But seriously, can't we focus on actual peacekeeping efforts rather than just handing out PR prizes? 🙏
 
the whole thing feels like a setup 🙄. who thought giving trump an award was a good idea? he's got a history of causing more problems than he solves. i don't see how anyone can take this seriously 🤔. it's just gonna be a laughable publicity stunt in the end 😂.
 
lol this is wild 🤣 i mean what's next gonna be an award for best tantrum thrower at the UN? idk if any of those alternatives would make trump feel special lol he'd probably find a way to turn the vw golf award into a golf tournament where all the players have to drive golf carts made by german companies 🤦‍♂️
 
I gotta say, I'm just like totally baffled by this whole thing. FIFA giving out a peace prize to Trump? It's just not gonna cut it for me. I mean, have you seen his track record on human rights and conflict resolution? It's like, um, no thanks 🙅‍♂️.

I think what bothers me most is that they're trying to distract us from all the real issues with Trump by flinging him this PR stunt award. And then these alternative awards... Volkswagen Golf Award? Big Cheese Trophy for Making America Grate Again? Come on! It's just cheap attempts to make fun of him, and honestly, it's kinda mean 🤷‍♂️.

But you know what? I do think the Energizer Bunny Trophy is pretty funny. I mean, Trump does seem like he's got a boundless energy level when it comes to tweeting 😂. But still, FIFA needs to step up their game if they want to take this seriously. Maybe give the award to someone who's actually done some real work for peace and human rights? 🤔

Overall, I think this whole thing is just a joke that's gonna fall flat. I'm not sure what kind of message Trump is supposed to get from this, but it's just not gonna fly with me 🚫.
