This is not the Nobel Prize, but Donald Trump was still quite excited when the president of the organizing committee of the 2028 Olympic Games, Casey Wasserman, gave him a box of Olympic medals during a white house ceremony today.
During the event, the president signed an executive decree establishing a working group on the 2028 games in Los Angeles, a group that presents the president as president.
By presenting the medals, the founder and CEO of Wasserman invoked Ronald Reagan, who, according to him, chaired the 1984 Games in Los Angeles.
“You will chair our matches,” said the Trump and the event. “And therefore, we have a complete set of original medals from 1984.”
After applause, Trump asked, “Can I say that I won them athletic?”
Trump later posted on the event only five times on Truth Social, including a video of the presentation of the medal with the legend: “Thanks to Casey Wasserman, president of 2028 the Olympics …”
Trump was criticized last month when he stayed on the platform of the winners while the English football club Chelsea collected their medals and celebrated the victory of the FIFA club World Cup. Chelsea Reece captain James seemed to ask Trump, “Are you going to leave?” To which the president smiled and hit his hands.
Trump was not only seen pocket one of the medallions that all Chelsea players received, but the president also said that FIFA had offered him the world trophy of the World Cup and that the equipment held at altitude by Chelsea was a copy.
Some have expressed their concern that Trump, who has repeatedly claimed credit for landing the Los Angeles Games, will focus on them in a similar way. Many encouraged him to do so.
During an appearance at a press conference by Morgan Stanley earlier this year, Endeavour and the executive of TKO Mark Shapiro said: “President Trump will get out of his duties with the trophy that is the Los An Olympic Games” he will be seated in front and in the center. I am a real believer it will be her The Olympic Games as much as anything else. »»
Trump has been obsessed with medals of all kinds for years, in particular the Nobel Peace Prize, which has been given to four other presidents.
Asked in 2018 if he deserved the prize, Trump replied: “Everyone thinks it, but I would never say it.”
He seemed to change his mind on such a assertion of himself when he again questioned the price earlier this year.
“They will never give me a Nobel Peace Prize,” said Trump in response to the question of a journalist. “It’s a shame. I deserve it, but they will never give it to me.
