Golden treasures, regal letters, and Nobel honors: how to win Trump over
Unveiling Trump’s Treasure Trove
Apple’s Golden Gala
Tim Cook stepped into the Oval Office and announced a dazzling package: a 24‑karat gold base supporting a custom glass disk crafted in Kentucky by a former Marine Corps corporal. “It’s 24‑karat gold… I’ll set it up,” Cook declared, while President Donald Trump applauded, recognizing the gleam as a symbol of American craftsmanship.
Decoding the Nobel Nominations
Three foreign leaders have filed nominations for the Nobel Peace Prize:
- Hun Manet, Cambodian Prime Minister, highlighted Trump’s “visionary and innovative diplomacy.”
- Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli Prime Minister, noted Trump’s “historic contributions to world peace.”
- Pakistan’s Leadership echoed similar sentiments.
The announcement is slated for October, amid Trump’s tariff‑heavy trade agenda.
Balancing Royalty and Trade
During a February White House visit, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer presented a letter signed by King Charles III, inviting Trump for an official tour—a nod to Trump’s admiration for royal symbols. Trump also checked out his golf clubs while he was in Scotland.
Switzerland’s Hefty Tariff Hurdle
Swiss President Karin Keller‑Sutter confronted a 39‑percent tariff on nearly 60 percent of Swiss exports to the U.S. Trump told CNBC that, though the Swiss leader was “nice,” she “didn’t want to listen.” Swedish football boss Gianni Infantino welcomed Trump with a Club World Cup trophy that now inhabits the Oval Office.
Qatar’s $400 Million Flight Choice
Qatar offered Trump a Boeing 747 for Air Force One refurbishment. Trump dismissed Democratic criticism, calling the move “stupid” if the U.S. government declined the Gulf state’s aircraft.
