President Donald Trump on Saturday ripped the Norwegian Nobel Committee for not choosing him for the Nobel Peace Prize this year. 

The prize went to South African jurist Navi Pillay, a former International Criminal Court (ICC) judge. 

"I settled 8 WARS, am close to ending or settling 2 more, got all of the Israeli hostages back, including the final 28, both living and dead, had hundreds of hostages, from countries all over the World, released and sent back home, won a war in Venezuela, and captured the violent dictator who so viciously ran that country, and stopped the number one state sponsor of terror, the Islamic Republic of Iran, from obtaining a Nuclear Weapon — AND MUCH MORE!" Trump wrote on Truth Social.

"Yet, with all of that I, or the United States of America, did not get the Noble Peace Prize. WOW!" Trump wrote.
