Social media erupted with jokes and memes after United States President Donald Trump failed to win the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize, a recognition he had openly sought since returning to office. The award instead went to Venezuelan democracy activist Maria Corina Machado, sparking disappointment among Trump's supporters and a wave of online humor about his self-proclaimed peace achievements. Trump had frequently touted his role in ending conflicts and brokering peace deals, but the Nobel Committee honored Machado for her unwavering efforts to promote democracy and peaceful change in Venezuela. Machado's activism and resilience have made her a prominent figure in her country's fight for democratic rights, earning her international recognition with this prestigious award.
