President Donald Trump has never shied away from lashing out against any slight against him, real or perceived, but after the Norwegian committee responsible for awarding the Nobel Peace Prize snubbed him in favor of Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado he appears to be holding his tongue on the matter.

A glut of social media posts emanating from the president’s Truth Social account Friday morning touched on multiple subjects, including reposting praise he’d received for his role in helping broker the deal that has brought about a ceasefire in Israel’s two-year-old war against Hamas in Gaza as of Friday morning.

One post included a clip from a show on the conservative Newsmax television network in which the host credited Trump with helping bring about peace to the Middle East region even though the deal had yet to be approved by Israel’s cabinet at the time.

Had Trump been victorious, he would have been the fifth American president to receive the prize, following Theodore Roosevelt (1906), Woodrow Wilson (1919), Jimmy Carter (2002), and, most importantly for the current commander-in-chief, Barack Obama (2009).
