    “Just to be at this venue.… Your applause means a great deal to me. You don’t want to receive an award, prize, or anything, unless the public agrees that you deserve this. So that’s how I appreciate your applause today,” Pillay said in her remarks. “Being a lawyer and a judge, I still want to verify [this announcement]. I think it’s very appropriate that I’m with friends and colleagues, all of whom support human rights. The last thing I did [was] the delivery of the report on Gaza naming what’s happening there as genocide.”

            No, he was saying that the remarks didn’t just dig at Trump.

            He was saying, sure, they made a joke about Trump, but their comments also had more meaningful sentiments as well.

        This part kind of does. He’s been a shrieking little pissbaby about not getting a nobel prize for years.
